What is a Coding Dojo?
A Coding Dojo is a meeting where a bunch of coders get together to work on a programming challenge. They are there to have fun and to engage in DeliberatePractice in order to improve their skills. They use various languages, various tools, various exercise formats. They consider the outcome of an exercise successful when it is completed within allocated time AND the audience can repeat the exercise at home by themselves.

Characteristics:

• Non-competitive, collaborative, fun environment
• All skill levels are welcome
• Safe to try new ideas

More details on this Coding Dojo, as well as the tools and session format are discussed on The Coding Dojo mailing list.
