    The "spoonfed" mentality is frustrating these days-it seems that every kid that comes in the door has trouble even taking the initiative to tie his/her own belt....."My mom does it for me" is becoming a frequent response from 8 and 9 year olds! We talk frequently in classes (both kids and adults) about this issue and while you get nods of agreement a majority still have no ambition to put the effort in and still see Black Belt as something to wear rather than something to be.

    As a TKD practitioner I agree with you...an image that I am trying to change!

    "Yes Ma'am/Sir" helps develop self-discipline and focus....not just in the dojo but at school/work/home too. Push ups should not be use do punish, rather to motivate the students and remind them to work on their self-discipline-the side benefit being strengthening. It has little to do with respect, IMO, that must be earned through your/the instructors actions and words.

    Sensei I could not agree with you more!!!!!! I sound like a broken record in class sometimes re-iterating this same point-every technique must follow the same sequence to be balanced and efficient. Technique, technique, technique!! Correct Technique + speed of delivery=POWER!

    You never forget your first, but for me it was the third one that I feel is my "home". I no longer train there (due to a move) but my heart and my friends are still there.
