Manaka Sensei talked to us about a couple of things before training:
子曰、吾十有五而志乎学、三十而立、四十而不惑、五十而知天命、六十而耳順、七十而従心所欲不踰矩 Hachi is basically just a bowl or pot and Wari is to crack. Typically the word applies to pots used for plants but here it is about whacking someone on the head. Hachi can also refer to the crown of the head in other words.
