Ti Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 Just wanna know how much longer till I get to break boards.
CloudDragon Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 what kyu are you now? A Black Belt is just a white belt that don't know when to quit!
Sibylla Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 I don't think we break boards at all in our shotokan dojo...
Jussi Häkkinen Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 I have never heard about a Shotokan dojo that would incorporate breaking as any kind of worthy training method or as a grading requirement. Jussi HäkkinenOkinawan Shorin-Ryu Seibukan Karate-Do (Kyan Chotoku lineage)TurkuFinland
Sho-ju Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 We did the whole breaking thing at around purple/5th kyu - brown/3 kyu. It was done mostly for demos.
cymry Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 In my dojo, it's usually only 1st kyus and dan grades who do breaking. Unless you're an adult, which in tht case you'll get to doit at quite low grades. BTW, we usually only use breaking blocks.
G95champ Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 We don't break (General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory."
Darce Posted October 5, 2003 Posted October 5, 2003 Neither do we. What´s the point of breaking, anyway, besides that it looks cool? Shukokai Karate, Orange belt ( 7. kyu)
Ti Posted October 5, 2003 Author Posted October 5, 2003 Neither do we. What´s the point of breaking, anyway, besides that it looks cool?yes, it does look cool. I just wanna know I can break things with my hands.
