Hi all, the more I read about McDojos, the more confused I get. Does "black belt society"/contract make a dojo a Mcdojo? When one's a beginner, how do you judge the quality of instruction? We don't know better! I like my dojo, but it's very expensive. Does expensive make it a McDojo too? This dojo self proclaimed to be a traditional school, and concentrate more on self defense than tournament, but without attending a sports oriented school, I'm can't tell whether this is true or not. Any pointers?
They do not have contracts here at all, and belt testing fee is merely $25, and the belt ranks is the same as other schools, without those second degree yellow pending green, thingy...
Most of this group's member are from UK, if anyone know of a good dojo in the bay area (San Francisco), please let me know!
