New Program, how much should I be paid?
blackbelt replied to Holliesc3's topic in Instructors and School Owners
Yes i would definitly re-talk the agreement. If your the one taking care of the class with no help from him, then you should be entitled to fair compensation. Plus your class is bringing him more buisness, its only fair that he pays you fairly. -
I have an Ed Parker Signature line uniform from Tigerclaw, and its a very nice uniform. Has a nice stonewashed color and heavy build. The only problems I had was with the strings on the jacket (then again i'm the instructors dummy ) And sometimes it seems to limit my moveability a little bit. But overall its a good uniform.

Avoiding Grouund Fighting
blackbelt replied to Aces Red's topic in BJJ, Judo, Jujitsu, Aikido, and Grappling Martial Arts
Try to avoid ground fighting in general. If your doing it in the dojo, then its good practice just in case, but in a real situation, the ground is the last place you want to be. -
Dirty jobs, mythbusters, deadliest catch, CSI, Friends, Seinfeld... anything that looks good.

Ours go: pahl kup-white chil kup-yellow Yuk kup-green oh kup-blue sah kup-purple Sahm kup- brown instructor committee Ee kup-red 8 degrees of blackbelt Promotions are held monthly for those that are ready and have enough points. We use a point system that basically requires students to come a minimal amount of days before even being considered promotion, but when they get promoted dependes on their ability and knowledge of techniques in the areas of: 1) forms 2)Kicks 3)Defense 4) Knowledge 5) breaking

Do you allow parents to watch?
blackbelt replied to Philosophical One's topic in Instructors and School Owners
Yeah it seems people get distracted a lot lately. Especially at our school. I usually come for the youth class at 6 and stay for the 30 min. sparring session between the youth and adult classes and then stay for the adult class (quite a workout ). But sometimes in that youth class, these little kids just start bouncing off the walls and get distracted over every little thing and then there are some that just want to do what they want to do. -
We use it a lot in some of our forms and lately we've been using on kicks and punches. We only got through a couple of them, but my instructor said there's quite a few techniques you can do with them.
