Should a Karateka know other Martial Arts?
ShotokanMaster replied to Shotokannon's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
A Karateka should know other Martial Arts because you can benefit from it like for Example My Sifu Jesus Flores is a 10 degree Black Belt in American Kenpo Karate not only That he takes Filipino Martial Arts and his a 3rd Degree BLack belt in FMA and also his a Blue Belt in Juijutsu Well for me I took Taekwondo and I was a yellow belt then My Best Friend whose taking Eskrima thought me Eskrima Taichi and Chi Gung then I took Shotokan I was a high Orane then know im taking American Kenpo and i a green belt so its fun to take other Martial arts because you can have many Options when you get in trouble or if he provokes ya to fight -
T-shirt in place of gi top?
ShotokanMaster replied to Lupin1's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
I would choose Gi over T shirt because you can see all the patches and your award patches on the Gi and I cant wait to have the red Gi its gonna be awesome in order to have the red gi you have to help teach kid at lease 100 times a week thats like in 4 years depending when you help because im a member of the swat team in my karate studio we only used T shirt on the summer which is cool i like wearing T shirt in the summer -
I'm loyal to my instructor I have a lot of respect for him and his like a friend a brother to me and when he teach he gives 100$ on it he would give his knowledge to his student when he teaches and when he teach he give it step by step and by detail its like Poetry in Motion and i know my instructor is loyal to me to he trust me 100 and i would give it my all

In my Opinion you can have your own studio if your really ready to teach and you have the ok of the head instructor and make sure your school runs smoothly and you have to know your foundation and what to teach the class like the basic katas, technique or sets and make sure you got the money to run your studio aos you have to make your school fun too so y'all can have a fun time and learning in karate

Children in the class
ShotokanMaster replied to Shotokannon's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
well in my karate studio children are separate from adult unless your a teenager well in the adult class theres kids grade 6 like 5 of them but they are doing good patience is a virtue for me because i have to be patience when teaching kids I know some kids don't listen or they goof around and some are lazy but the only way for them to listen is you have to be in charge make sure they listen and make sure they pay attention and make sure they are following what you said and also make sure the student makes eye contact with the instructor I'm a blue belt in american Kenpo karate but i volunteer to help teach kids with their kenpo thats why im in the Swat team my Sifu Said Make teaching fun and exciting but you have to be in control at the same time thats why i love teaching kids and I love american kenpo karate and I know My instructor trust me on becoming a Swat team and Teaching kids -
Kenpo is an updated system of self defense based on modern day street fighting it applies logic and Practicality Kenpo also uses lots of check in their technique which is awesome also they used lots of principles and concept and also they combine 2 technique into 1 also they talk about reverse motion Ive been doing American Kenpo Karate for 1 year 9 months and i love it im a blue belt soon to be green and I go to Flores Bros Kenpo karate Studios here in Oxnard Ca
