What the ?
Anyone care to tell me what that was about?
Reading between the lines.... that was saying that most clubs/orginisations are BAD PEOPLE, and there are only a few good ones out there.... the rest are a bunch of lying, thieving, cheating, self-centered moneymaking bad people!
Surely not!
(LOL)
Still, kind of makes sense..... opinions?

saying karate sucks is like saying chinese food tastes bad....
either
1 it's your own personal choice of what you like to taste and you just dont like chinese food
2 it could be just a bad restauraunt
3 It could be an aquired taste which takes some "training" for you palette to appreciate it

People seem to react pretty heavily just to the topic of that article. That's understandable. However, please read the whole article - it has lots of truth in it.
Writer is a karateka with a long experience, he trains (and teaches) in a top notch dojo and he pretty well knows what he's talking about. Most importantly, he still keeps training karate.
Yes, karate does suck. As does pretty much any other organized hobby. Still, there are several sides to it that do not suck and that make it a hobby that you love.
Read the article before judging it. The writer doesn't say that karate would suck more than something else. He just pretty well sums the facts, lists them well and makes an entertaining article - written with a hint of tongue in his cheek.

Hello, Each of you will have different experiences in Karate. Not all Karate is the same. Your Sensi will make all the difference in the world, just like sport coachs, better the coach, the better you will be.
With the thousands of Sensi's and schools, there will be some not so good ones. Except the fact and keep looking, unless you like sucking? "HI YA".
Karate Schools are a business first. Some teach because they believe in there training and love to share it, and some for the "Money". Too bad money is needed to have a space for training, and most Sensi need to eat too?
Will the above article makes us realize there is some truth to it? Sad know?....Aloha
