Hello all. I'm brand new to the forums but glad to be here. Let me start off by saying that I am not a Karate practitioner - but that's why I've joined; to learn more about it. I'm an instructor of a style of Chinese martial arts. But I'm also involved in a project we recently started as a Martial Arts podcast - informative and funny. So I am here learning about Karate and scouting out knowledgeable people who might like to be featured or interviewed. If you're curious, feel free to take a look at https://www.hiyaapodcast.com. There's nothing to buy or pay for so don't worry. Looking forward to making new friends and learning a lot!
TCMA will never die out. What's hot now was not so in the 60's nor the 1600's. Different strokes for different folks. And folks will always have the TCMA option if they so choose.
