# Who is a Sensei?

In Japanese culture, a Sensei (先生) means - a master who guides students in developing physical skills through patient demonstration and hands-on practice.

At Barbarika Dojo, Senseis train robots instead of humans. They're skilled practitioners who use cutting-edge techniques like teleoperation and imitation learning to teach robots how to manipulate objects, navigate environments, and perform complex tasks. Just as martial arts Senseis demonstrate moves until students internalize movements, our Senseis demonstrate tasks through teleoperation until AI models learn to replicate and generalize these behaviors.
