March 10, 201412 yr How many of you have checked it out on Youtube? It is some funny as hell stuff to watch! if you have any particular favourite episodes please link it here for everyones entertainment. currently my favourite one is the thrust of freedom kata. I'll link it soon
March 10, 201412 yr What the gullible don't realize is that the Master Ken character is taking the mike out of them! You can have a seminar with this guy for £45 an hour! All he does is ridicule YOU! If I want a laugh, I'd rather watch Billy Connelly! Lol Look to the far mountain and see all.
March 10, 201412 yr I'd say that the program has its supporters as well as those who don't support it. At first it was funny, but after a short while, it was no longer funny to me. Sure, one has to be able to laugh at themselves, and I laugh at myself quite a lot. There's a fine line of humor and reality, but only when you perceive it to be so. Perception is reality. I don't take him serious because he's not. But many of my students have taken him serious at times for their reasons. Pep talks work so long because as one of my teen students said to me a few weeks ago..."This is a form of bullying. It hurts!", and that's important because it's important to the individual, like my teen student. **Proof is on the floor!!!
July 7, 201412 yr Author I can't take him seriously and his videos are long enough but i don't think having him in person would be all that good
February 24, 20179 yr I do like the clip when he breaks the board on Jesse Enkampe's head. "Those who know don't talk. Those who talk don't know." ~ Lao-tzu, Tao Te Ching "Walk a single path, becoming neither cocky with victory nor broken with defeat, without forgetting caution when all is quiet or becoming frightened when danger threatens." ~ Jigaro Kano
May 7, 20179 yr *New Guy Alert* I love that show! I think it is hilarious because, if you've trained at enough places, you've MET those people. While his characters are exaggerations of particular types, those types are scattered throughout the dojo's in real life. Apparently, the guy who plays Master Ken has a pretty solid MA background and made the show based on his experiences at various McDojos. I consider it to be the perfect spoof on a real world situation.I can't say I have a favorite episode (I've seen ALL of the ones on YouTube) but I definitely have a favorite character - BILLY "I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine." ~ Bruce Lee

May 8, 20179 yr It's awesome, I'm on series three at the mo. I take it as a MA version of The Office.Anyone who takes anything from that channel even remotely seriously frankly deserves it imho. RE-STOMP THE CROTCH!
July 22, 20188 yr Master Ken is the best. I can watch it for hours. (General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory."
July 26, 20188 yr Master Ken is amazing, as is Ameri-do-te because it has the strength of all styles and the weaknesses of none! Godan in Ryukyu Kempo Head of the Shubu Kan Dojo in Watertown, NY (United Ryukyu Kempo Alliance)
