Although there is a fresh blanket of snow on the ground as I write this, it is becoming the season to think about how you may affect the olfactory senses of yourself and those around you after an hour of intense running, jumping, kicking, blocking, striking and such. In other words, now that it is getting warmer outside our bodies start to sweat more and with that they also start to smell more, when our bodies smell more in an enclosed space we are all affected.
There are many socially accepted ways to alleviate body odors. They include showering, laundering your clothing, wearing deodorant, wearing socks in your shoes and eating healthy natural foods (without beans). Please feel free to employ these and other methods of keeping yourself and our dojang smelling sweet.
