This thread is so depressingly familiar. I can remember 5-6 years ago reading posts on assorted message boards regarding the awful standard of GKR karate, Yellow belt instructors, shady business practices etc. In spite of the welter of hyperbole expended back then - and so it seems, to this very day. GKR is still around and getting bigger all the time. If every bad thing you ever heard about GKR were true could it really be the case that 40,000 people spread over three continents could all be so gullible? It really seems unlikely. My heart felt sympathies go out to all GKR students - 6 years of being the perennial whipping boys of every disgruntled martial artist with a modem and a loose grasp of english must take enormous mental fortitude. It's a shame that there isn't a special belt for fortitude in the face of accusatory, non-gramatical web postings. Toodle-pip
