The BB of C Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I still think it can be good for your students to play whack-a-mole (using a shinai) with them once in a while when they don't act right or if it's for conditioning purposes.

WireFrame Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Pushups are sometimes threatened when (and this is rare) a child simply will not behave/listen/focus. There's only a couple of kids in our class though. Funny thing is the pushups arent threatened for the kid, they're for everyone else haha.Either way it's training though, so I don't see it as much of a punishment.

RichardZ Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I has some incorrigible students a few times. I sought no punishment, but had other methods to get them motivated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotokan-kez Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 It's very rare we punish students. Ocassionally my sensei has made the older children do push ups, not very often. He has that aura about him that just makes people behave around him, children and adults lol.On the rare occasion i have had to send children to sit out for five minutes, but generally we don't dish out physical punishment. Walk away and your always a winner. https://www.shikata-shotokan.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
