Funny yes, though I associate the mcDojo label with the financial side of a school. Is it a franchise? Do you have a contracted monthly payment auto-debited from your checking account? A Family Plan? Black Belt Club with initiation fee? Do you have to buy school supplied & branded uniforms and sparring gear?

Does your school have Birthday Parties?!

We celebrate members' birthdays.  If you attend class on your birthday (and let it be known), then your birthday present is that the entire class gets to do push-ups equal to your current age.  Last year we had to do 40 push-ups for our CI's birthday.  Fortunately this year my birthday lands on a Sunday.

Our CI I think just turned 77. So we're not going to to do that!
