The "Size Doesn't Matter" one is tricky because it's in the context of how they say it and what they mean. If their meaning is "a smaller opponent can defeat a bigger opponent", that is legit and has been demonstrated many times. That was actually a founding principle of BJJ, creating an art in which someone of smaller stature can utilize their own leverage effectively. Someone who is smaller can actually have a couple of their own advantages if they know how to use them, such as center of gravity and a likely higher agility. On the other hand, if what they mean is "size plays no role in a fight", that is incorrect and a dangerous mindset. A bigger person will likely hit harder, their head will be harder to target, and they might even be able to endure blows to areas like the stomach and chest better. More mass allows them to absorb more force. A taller person will most likely have greater reach, meaning their kicks and punches will reach you before you can reach them, which can force you into a much closer range. Size dictates how you should approach a fight. If an opponent is bigger, target the knees or legs to take them down. You'll have to make sure any grappling favors your lower center of gravity.

"Why don't we see Karate in MMA?" That's also an ambiguous one (as you said, a grey area). Because Karate is very much in MMA. It wasn't as prominent at the start of the sport (well after the open purist tournament of the beginning) but once MMA had evolved to have a healthy solid foundation. The stylists started to come back in again and Karate has shown to be quite effective in there, just with sensible modifications here an there. There's a decent enough list of solid Karate fighters in there. Lyotto Machida, Stephen Thompson and George St Piere have Karate backgrounds and have been extremely successful.

2:16 The same thing happens with Chuck Norris. So many of his original black belts from the 1960s & 70s (and even some UFAF ones from the 80s) love to claim that they were personal students of his, even though they were really students of students or students of students of students or even students of students of students or students, they simply tested under Norris and his National Tang Soo Do Congress and later on UFAF. Some were even from across the country. Norris stopped teaching full-time in 1970, but would teach an advanced class now and again. That would hardly make someone an actual student of his. I actually know of some black belts who claim Chuck was their teacher, but in reality never trained under him or even tested with him. My instructor might be one of the few people who still has a copy of the original Chuck Norris black belt family tree, listing who really trained under who. 9:14 In my 30 years of martial arts experience, I've had two people give me the whole "registered as a lethal weapon" spiel. The first was in high school. A classmate of mine, who was a black belt in American kenpo told me and a few others in our group (all martial artists) that when he was promoted to black belt his instructor (a very well known American kenpo instructor) had him "register" with the police. He never went into details though. Some of the guys were already black belts and they kind of looked at each like..."okay, sure". What's funny is that he ended up getting demoted back to brown belt for fighting a lot. We should have asked him if that meant that his "registration" was voided. The second time was about 2 or 3 years ago. I was working armed security and someone from the incoming second shift noticed some of my karate books in the guard shack. We got to talking and he told me that he had been training in ninjitsu for 18 years, but was only a brown belt because he didn't want to have to "register" his hands and feet in order to get his black belt. Since we would have to work together on occasion I never said anything, I just nodded my head. Funny thing is, as armed guards we carried firearms, batons, mace and tazers, which means that we had to be licensed for each individual weapon (if we planned on using different caliber guns each caliber we had to qualify for each one and they had to be listed on our firearm permit), fingerprinted, background checked (both on the federal & state level) and held to the strictest of laws especially use of force. We had to go through all this stuff for our jobs, yet he didn't want to "register" himself. By the way, no his teacher wasn't Frank Dux.

Additionally they offered special weapons seminars about once a month. To be fair they had some pretty goodMartial artists. But the constant additional fees and up selling got old to anyone who was smart enough to see what they were doing.

He had no idea how to respond to that. Another parent asked me how many street fights I've won, told them since I was never in an action movie, never got into a real fight because I didn't make it a point to make enemies in high school. (To be clear, by teaching, I don't mean I had my own school, but I was at a rank which I could start teaching others.) My number one thing as an instructor was honesty. One potential student asked me how I knew the stuff I was taught would work if I've never been in a real fight. Simply told them, "I hope I'll never have to learn whether they work or not."

For your first point from my perspective, I always claim about offshoots of the form or forms that I practice to the best of my ability and never claim to be a lineage person, but I do claim to be an adherant. Your second point is spot on, but even with my height I can be quite quick, but I know when not to get involved. Your third point is spot on to the point that one technique has thousands of counter-techniques to them and you need to know how to anticipate them without falling victim to the sin of insight aka sloth. For your fourth and fifth point, many of my techniques are absolutely not meant for the ring or easy because of how and when they are normally used for the reason that we train which is service aka chugi or duty and loyalty and are quite dangerous that we are almost considered similar to a military of some sort because we are a clan, but you are right for not training lower ranking disciples of our art form due to the reasons that they are used for. For your sixth point, we are very surprised that we have not had to register our fists due to how we train. For your seventh point, if there is a particular prodigy in our ranks of what you are mentioning, they are also able to give out orders that go into the public for training other disciples.

My father is a 8th dan in Traditional Shoto Kan for over 65 years and 4 years in Judo as a brown belt. I been in the martial arts since I was 5 and now 55 years old and studied other arts. There are so many Traditional Shoto Kan dojo that are fake. They modified their Katas , don't even know the break downs of the kata's they don't even know how defend themselves on the street. what they do teach is sport karate. Point tournaments open styles. Then they wonder why they think they been cheated when it comes to Katas in tournaments in Tradition tournaments. If you add or take away anything it is no longer Traditional it now considered modify and no longer Traditional. Be careful of those who say that they are Traditional. By asking questions who taught you, and who taught your sencei and who taught your sensei sensei or sifu. Get the the whole history of your instructor before joining any art.

I find the "Too deadly" one hilarious particularly if the school saying that has a kids program. I train shotokan with a Krav maga instructor who got his KM black belt when he was a Sgt in the IDF, he told me IDF Krav Maga is a world apart from what is taught in civilian KM schools it's basically MMA with dirty (eye gouging, ball shots) and lethal techniques added, another guy I train with also trains kali relatively full contact. The only art I will ever give that credit for is defendu why? because it was the British combat martial art of WW2 and it was having to be taught quickly to inexperienced soldiers so there was no way or time to work your way up to the more dangerous techniques it was straight in with stuff that could potentially kill.

Note one. One thing I think was looked over is physical training. Such as weight lifting, cardio, and so on. I've noticed a lot of Mc Dojo's will solely focus on technique. Granted techniques are one of the three corner stones to martial arts but so is being able to move 10 pounds of weight without getting winded. Note two. On the conversation of XYZ training, I've found it's a good building block but not the cure all. For example, there are multiple ways to throw a punch. And some people find one method easier while the other methods harder. So to put simply if the instructor says that all his answers are right without experimentation that's what I find is the biggest red flag.

Thanks for a great video. Going back to fighting a larger opponent that you mentioned. A lot of people think because someone is big in statue that they are unable to fight. This is of course not the case at all. Look at Chojun Miyagi the founder of Goju Ryu karate as any example. He weighted around 400 pounds and could barely lift his legs to kick because his stomach got in the way. But he was regarded as one of the pioneers of Okinawan karate. It is said that he could knock out any opponent with his open palm strike. Not to mention that Goju Ryu style is at the center of the one of the most popular movie and TV series out there. The Karate Kid and The Cobra Kai .

2 more (more like quick observations) 1) You see a 5yr old blackbelt... Just turn and walk out the door 2) You see VIRTUALLY ALL THE UPPER RANKS have braces or other indications of serious training injuries and/or brag about them and the number of times they have been knocked out. Accidents and KO's CAN and DO happen in the martial arts but if it's THAT common the school is pushing you to do things your body just is not ready for as well as a lack of general control all around. RUN AWAY FAST!!!

Well said on the 8 bogus secrets. Could not agree more. A couple points you made - one yes martial arts is used for more than just fighting; can be used for aesthetics - the art form of the martial arts, and athletics - for martial arts is a good work out. And two the prodigy student - I actually had one - a girl named Jana she was only 6 when she started be excelled quickly as she would pick up a kata faster than many of my adult students I had. She got her junior black belt at age 10 and now has her full black belt; and now she has a child of her own born just recently. A baby girl who she is going to teach her karate one day. Oss.

Also, the only technique I can immediately think of that is too dangerous to practice on a sparring partner is jabbing the fingers in the eyes. We train it on dummies & strengthen our fingers to be able to do it in a true moment of necessity, just to get an opening or advantage.
@ArtofOneDojo3 жыл бұрын
But at least you still train it and are taught it and understand when you can and cannot use it. I should have been clearer that I wasn't suggesting that EVERYTHING be allowed in sparring, but rather along the lines of schools who won't show or teach the "deadly stuff". I think it's important to teach it so the student can understand the safety and reasons of why things are done certain ways. In Jujutsu we are taught how to do throws aggressively but in a way so our partner can do their break falls but also shown how to prevent the break fall and dump them on their head if it was a life or death struggle. It's important to know and understand the differences and then teach the discipline for the student to know when to make that call.

Started when I was ten I’m almost 39 now I’m in complete agreement about McDojos but I’ve never heard it In a legit school. I believe a well placed kensitsu geri stoving the knee into itself will stop someone it’s designed to break the leg, a well placed executed nukite to the throat by someone who can break even one board if it won’t stop him it will certainly slow him down but they need to be well aimed well executed if it’s not it won’t work completely agree with that

I was recently attacked in fact, a guy grabbed my thumb, he is Chinese but I can only compare what he did to me to Wally Jay's small circle jujitsu, this is all illegal and impossible in MMA gloves. It was brutal, dislocated my thumb, wrist, and shoulder. But yeah, lots of businesses lie, I've been lied to by 4 Doctorate programs at accredited Colleges, there is really no-one enforcing any ethics, the opposite sometimes. It's like a bad movie, except it's all real, real money, real time. It's hard to trust good teachers and schools after that.
