Ju-Jitsu as a way of Life!!

It is encouraging to see so many clubs advertised on the internet, where do they all come from and what are their origins? Does it really matter that much provided the Instructors run the clubs in a professional manner and do not use the club to satisfy their own ego's?

Why is it that Martial Artists are so suspicious of each other, I find it incredible that clubs and associations are not willing to work together more, sharing their ideas and good practice to the overal development of Martial Arts as a whole.

To combat this the British Kempo Ju-Jitsu Federation has developed a three tier membership level, so there is a membership level to suit everyone at all stages of their Martial Arts career, indeed the Associate Member Level is free of charge to all comers with no hidden agenda, please checkout the link below, we would open the debate on whether this is of benefit to Groups in general?

Too many idiots giving away grades!!

One of the biggest problems we face as bonafide martial arts instructors and exponents is the amount of unregulated groups who give away grades too easily, which forces down the general standard of martial arts in the UK. All too often when I see a dojo or seminar packed with students the quality of the teaching leads a lot to be desired! I prefer a class of dedicated students where we can only just manage to pay the rent, to clubs which pack them in and make a lot of money out of fooling the students that they are better than they really are?

Add you views and ideas for irradicating this problem........................
