What is going on in some dojos? This is just bizarre!

On Friday evening, a 12-year-old Montclair boy—with a lump on his head, a strike mark on the left side of his face, a mark on his chin, and blood on his shirt—told police he was struck with a whip by a man at the Kincade School of Martial Arts on Orange Road.

...

The man, later identified as Hinton Kinsler, is an employee at the Kincade School and reportedly was notified that the juvenile and another student, a 13-year-old Montclair girl, had engaged in a physical altercation on Orange Road. It is reported that Kinsler told the two students to stay in the push-up position in the school’s dojo while he struck them with a whip to discipline them. The boy then left the school.

Say what?

I've heard of students made to do pushups for reported misbehavior outside the dojo, or in some cases simply removed as students of the dojo for fighting outside the dojo. But hit with a whip?

Wow!

I'm sure that there is going to be a pretty good lawsuit coming out of this one. That is so unacceptable, I don't care what the 2 kids outside the did there is absolutely no excuse for anyone to do that to a kid. There are so many other ways that situation could've been dealt with.
