Things NOT to say to your instructor...


Recommended Posts

I was a Jr. Black Belt, 14 years old. I was in my Dai-Soke's office, which was allowed, but what I did wasn't allowed...ever...when out of nowhere I did the stupidest thing...

I saw it hanging, I was tempted, and I was by myself...three wrong things for a curious kid, as I was, to be...

I committed the biggest sin in a Dojo...or at least in my Dai-Soke's Dojo...

I couldn't resist it....it begged of me to do it...

I put on my Dai-Soke's belt....

AND I WAS CAUGHT RED-HANDED!!!! My Dai-Soke wasn't happy, this is to say the least, he was furious!

"What are you doing?" yells my Dai-Soke

I jumped out of my skin from fear alone...what should I do? What should I say? I was stuck with my mouth wide open and I was shaking...

"I said, What are you doing?" my Dai-Soke yells even louder

I stammered...no...I nearly wet myself...

"I was pretending to be you!" was my answer...

"What? GET IT OFF Nnnnnooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This was followed by some words in Japanese that I still don't know what my Dai-Soke was saying, but, I'm sure it wasn't good...for me that is.

I was suspended for 2 months! Harsh? No! I knew better, but, sheech, I was just a kid, a curious dumb kid! My Dai-Soke forgave me! I never EVER did that again!

:o

omg my jaw dropped when i read that!!!!!!

Last year, September 2010. I was at a karate get together at the house of one of the sandans. I was trying to remember the word for palm heel strike. cause I had just learned it. (Its Teisho Uchi.) I asked my sensei, the one who didnt speak Japanese. he said he wasnt sure. I looked at him and said, 'Then what's the good of ya'? clapping him on the back and letting him know 'I'm just kidding' He said 'I know "

I told another sandan about what I'd said. He looked horrified, and said Only you can get away with that'. :D

Warning Label: This isnt the best idea for everyone. If you have a good relationship with your senseis, and your particular personalities fit, you can joke around with them.

Some people regard discipline as a chore. For me it is a kind of order that sets me free to fly.


You don't have to blow out someone else's candle in order to let your own flame shine.
