IcemanSK Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 That's awesome. That has always been my dream...a trip to Korea. Just curious, and if you don't mind sharing...how long are you going and how much do you roughly think its going to cost you(flight, board, food, etc.)?Well, from what I understand the instructor's course itself is $150 or so. Since I'd take my wife, I'd estimate $5-6000 for the whole trip. That's my guess. I'm hoping my guess is on the high side. 6000 not too bad. i hope you have a great time. let us know how it goes. how long do you want to go for?It will be a while, but I'll letcha know Being a good fighter is One thing.

Tiger1962 Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I would love to get a life size head-to-toe sparring dummy. I know they sell those half ones called "B.O.B." that you put water or sand in the base, but a real life size one with legs and feet and arms would be great. I'd also love a pair of engraved samurai swords to hang on the wall.

NY_Karatedork Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I'm going to get a standing punching bag since I can't hang one in the basement because the ceiling is too low. I'm only 5' and I have to duck in certain areas. I have ninja monkies in my brain and they are using it as a trampaline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackbelt94 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 where to start... XMA style bo, kamas, and nunchakus, a century hanging bag, gloves, martial armor L2 (can anyone give me a product review on that?), and P2 sparring gear, new sais, new black belt, new uniform... the list goes on....

Kuma Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I actually had to bribe my wife that I'd clean out our garage if I could eventually score one of these.http://web.archive.org/web/20070319091956/http://www.isami.co.jp/item/img/000012/lsd-20.jpgIt's essentially a "kick bag", two suspended sandbags used for seiken and sune conditioning.

isshinryu5toforever Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I would like an Isshinryu Karate dojo in my location. I have been studying for going on 17 years now, and just this year I moved to a place with no Karate.Iceman SK, message me. I live in Korea, my girlfriend and I will for the next two years or so, and I might be able to help you out as far as costs and such. The course is one thing, but Korea doesn't have to be expensive at all. He who knows others is wise.
