Karategurl Posted November 12, 2004 Posted November 12, 2004 Im just wondering how fellow karateka think of their dojo? How would you rate your dojo? Hurt rather than injure,Injure rather than maim,Maim rather than kill,kill rather than be killed...
AngelaG Posted November 12, 2004 Posted November 12, 2004 I rate mine as great! Superb instruction, lovely fellow students (many of whom I consider close friends now), no *, ask any questions we want, train as much as we want! Superb!

Shorin Ryuu Posted November 12, 2004 Posted November 12, 2004 Great! I learned more these past few months than I have this past year, I think. Martial Arts Blog:http://bujutsublogger.blogspot.com/
James Posted November 12, 2004 Posted November 12, 2004 My dojo is not too bad but sometimes there is not enough spirit on classes and the instructor can not motivate us very well all the time. Beginners might not feel it however only us advanced students. I don`t blame him he works full time as a firefighter and has young kids home All together our dojo is an average one, nice facility and very cheap membership fee. I am thinking of changing dojo anyway there is a much better one in the city that practice the same style. Ouuus James
karatekid1975 Posted November 12, 2004 Posted November 12, 2004 Mine is good. The training is great. Strict on disipline, technique, ect. Lots more self defense than there used to be. 98% of the people are nice, and very helpful. But it's a little pricey (but in this area, you pay less you get lousy training ). I kinda wish they did more ground work/throws. But hey, there's nothing wrong with cross training Laurie F
Chirath Posted November 12, 2004 Posted November 12, 2004 I like my dojo. Great people and real personalities. Sensei is always friendly and even started giving me a few free lessons. My only gripe is no full contact sparring
ShotokanKid Posted November 16, 2004 Posted November 16, 2004 I think my dojo's great. Good place to meet people and learn stuff. "What we do in life, echoes in eternity.""We must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men."
CapitalKarate Posted November 16, 2004 Posted November 16, 2004 My dojo's good. It seems to focus more on training kids than adults (perhaps thats because 90% of the students are kids...) and I prefer an art that will teach me how to truly defend myself need be. Another negative aspect of it.. hardly any sparring or weapons classes. But other than that, great people, great teaching, good dojo.

Karategurl Posted November 16, 2004 Author Posted November 16, 2004 I am so glad no of you guys and ladies rated your dojo as bad, yet. I know some dojos may need a little of improvement, but a least you are learning something. Maybe if your dojo has something it needs to work on... try bringing it up with your master or teacher, and find a way to improve your dojo. Thus making everyone that much happier.

CapitalKarate Posted November 16, 2004 Posted November 16, 2004 the reason none of us would rate our dojo as bad is probably because if it were bad, we wouldnt be taking lessons there Joshua Brehm-When you're not practicing remember this; someone, somewhere, is practicing, and when you meet them, they will beat you.
