MY dojo a mcdojo or am i paranoid?

[ncole_91]

Great lol, some say yes, some say no....this is the one I will probably going to pick because most of the other karate schoools are mcdojos......

It's a McDojo.. The word "KravMaga" on the front is a dead giveaway.

[thaiboxerken]

The TaeBo program there also tells me that it's a McDojo. I bet they pull in alot of cash though!

Would this one be better than going to one that has a class called little ninjas, has a fitness room, boxing rind and dojo all in the same room, (dont even call dojo or gi) ummm....... yeah what do you think?

[thaiboxerken]

It would be about the same.

This place is a bigger mcdojo than the previous one. I'vee sent them an e-mail asking them some questions. I'll let you know how they respond.

 

I specifically asked them what type of karate they practice there and what the cost is.

[thaiboxerken]

Ok, where about do you live? Maybe we can collaborate our efforts to find you something worthy to train in.

Perhaps McDojo. But something is better than nothing.

 

Speaking of which, why Americans take McDonald's for granted. In other countries, where ever a "new" one is opened, it is outrageous.

 

Training is training. Some people do not have the "luxury" of choice, esp if the area is "starving" for one and only one exists. (I.E., Foreign McDonald's locations)
