In any works that involve Rival Dojos, the Pacifist Dojo is the natural Foil — and by extension the Good Counterpart — for the Thug Dojo. Whatever their Way is, you can bet your bottom dollar (or yen) that nine out every ten of its students — along with their sensei — are Martial Pacifists (hence the term) and the other is a technical one (if not a Reluctant Warrior). Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Not to say that no Deceptive Disciple ever gets past their system — after all, no process is foolproof. A Defector from Decadence, who probably began at the other place, might also take up training here and won't be that kind of sneak. But do not be fooled — like most Real Life eastern-martial-arts schools, they will make it clear that its members are not to use their techniques outside of the school, unless it is an emergency (self-defence, defence of a third party, etc). Using the techniques anyway, for bullying, for example, will lead to your expulsion upon discovery. And make no mistake, one way or another, they will find out, and the violator will be Persona Non Grata. In any proper competition or tournament, they will have been trained to follow the rules to the letter, especially between bouts, and be graceful losers regardless. Oh, they might be fine bending the rules, if only to stop cold any opponent who has no problem with prohibited moves (and they probably have no problem with trash talking, either), but not beyond that point. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })And just to drive home why you should Beware the Nice Ones, they can fight if they absolutely need to — especially if they end up in a massive brawl where dirty blows are flying all around and the ante is constantly going up. When their sensei (or Old Master) gets into the act, that's the signal to watch out. Compare Ninja School and Hero Academy. There does not have to be a competing dojo to qualify the school for this trope. Nor does it have to be "heroic" in any sense of The Hero. Nor does it even have to be technically a dojo. As long as it honors and strictly enforces its code of ethics as per the description, it counts. |

The Kamiya dojo from Rurouni Kenshin is one of these, with the Kamiya Kasshin-ryu style being a swords style used to protect people, not harm others. | |

Fist of Fury had the Jing-Wu school, whose founder was recently poisoned to death. There is a lengthy lecture early on in the film that stresses what their founder was really aiming for; their current sensei does not take kindly to finding out that Chen decided to take matters into his own hands toward the Hon-Kyu school, at least, not until after he sees the results of their dojo's retaliation. It's also a chilling example of Bruce Lee, as Chen, straddling the fine line between Martial Pacifist and Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy. |

Kickin' It has Bobby Wasabi Martial Arts Academy, whose staff and students have turned Good Is Not Soft into an art form in terms of conflict resolution. Most common in any situation where Jack catches a fist in his palm and calmly goes into his Pre Ass Kicking One Liner. | |

In the original Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, Jason ran such a class. In fact, he went on to lampshade it to Bulk: "Martial arts was not developed to hurt others." | |

The Isabel's grandfather's dojo in Paranatural teaches people how to manipulate Spectral energy to battle ghosts. Despite essentially being about teaching magic, it looks like a stereotypical martial arts dojo and frequently requires physical exercise. | |

Not a dojo, but in the anime adaptation of Grenadier, the Empress imparts in her personal traveling gunwomen not just the Improbable Aiming Skills but also the prime imperative to end any conflict without drawing their guns if at all possible. | |

In El Goonish Shive, the Anime Style Martial Arts Dojo used to be this ... until Sensei Greg decided to close it down. He did that partially because, given the potential of the techniques he taught, the risk a Deceptive Disciple could pose was too high. | |

In the Street Fighter Universe there's Gouken's Ansatsuki School, which teaches a non-lethal version of this martial art, Ryu and Ken being two of his most famous disciples. | |

Cobra Kai: In season 2, Daniel LaRusso opens up Miyagi-Do Karate, a martial arts dojo based out of Mr. Miyagi's old house, to counter the rising impact of Cobra Kai in the San Fernando Valley. His training of Robby and Sam — which involves almost all of the same tactics Mr. Miyagi used on him — indicates Miyagi-Do is set to follow this path. Unfortunately, tensions between various members of Miyagi-Do and members of Cobra Kai culminate in a karate war breaking out at school, leading to Sam being hospitalized in a skirmish with Tory Nichols, while Robby goes to jail after kicking Sam's ex-boyfriend Miguel Diaz over a railing. Daniel realizes that he has failed to pass on his sensei's lessons of deescalation and peace making and, on Amanda's ultimatum, elects to shut it down. In season 3, Sam chooses to reopen the dojo in her dad's absence when Cobra Kai continue picking on the Miyagi-Do kids at school, and after the hostilities between the dojos culminate in Demetri getting his arm broken in a gang fight, Daniel steps in to get the dojo back on course and properly instill the virtues of Miyagi-Do into his students. | |
