Check the place out. If it works for you it works for you. If it doesn't it doesn't. Just don't sign anything before you are 100% sure its what you want to do and still read the fine print. I find these type of places ATA, GKR, this place may have a kids program that may not teach very well yet still have a good activities for the kids before they are ready to get serious about training. The other part like others say there may be some really good schools out there. You never know till you see what they do. -

Sure there is...White belt/beginner!! I see what you did there. The only thing I would think about is ask your Sensei if he would recommend you go to the tournament if you are white belt. The tournment's I have been to you either need to know at least 1 kata to compete in kata or have a basic(beginner) understanding of sparing. I can't seem to remember if there was any white belts at the last couple of tournaments I competed in. There is on Saturday. May update if I see any.

Check with your sensei so you don't have to try to fix it later.

I would also have to recomend talking to your sensei about your issues. He can see how you are doing it and offer up advice to improve. I do like the karate by Jesse article too.

Switching Martial Arts Styles

I have to agree with this. The thing I have learned along time ago. The results are directly effected by the amount of focus you put into it. It's a lesson I wish kids would learn before they hit teen years. This is the same for karate, school work, Work, and everyday life.

I feel blind. Other than what others with the foot I can't find any issues. I love seeing how others do it. This looks beautiful.

I would think so. The 2 tshirts I use aren't clingy at all. I don't remember yet I think I bought a Medium weight gi. I love it to death just sometimes to me its easier to have just the shirt.

We kind of have a mixed policy. For grading, tournaments, and official events at our club we require full Gi. For those who are just starting out and seeing if they like it we require comfortable appropriate clothing. Not to tight sweat pants or shorts and a t shirt. Mostly for the first month or two. As for regular practice we normally require full gi or Gi pants and tshirt. We used to have club shirt. Due to use affiliating with who we are with now we don't have any updated yet. During the summer we sometimes allow shorts instead of gi pants. Mostly on days that the temp reaches over 100. Ac is nice yet sometimes it doesn't work fully. It's an old high school converted to community center in which we rent space. I like the idea of at least wearing gi pants and a club t shirt or an appropriate shirt. I normally wear my t shirts from the Sunflower state games and my gi pants. When it starts getting cold again I will be wearing full gi.

That's what I was about to ask.

Love to try this. Yet I know I would do horrible and lose focus on it would be my fear.

MMA guy wants private karate lessons from me!
liger replied to Luther unleashed's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
Love the idea. Good luck and like the last person said make sure he pays attention to the rules and what is allowed in mma. -
Hate to ask could you call and ask your instructor? Also hate to ask. When you find out can you lets us know. I am real curious now.
