text: Do research on karate and compare schools This school puts emphasis on katas and teaches very little sparring Ranks are questionable at best If you want to do nice katas and you do not care about learning real karate or practical self defense this school may work for you This school is also not at many locals tournaments red flag Took my child out and put them in another school He is now having to relearn everything and realizing they could have gotten really hurt becouse they thought they were learning self defense It is dangerous But if you want to exercise and learn Kata dancing and point sparring this could be a good fit otherwise please do your homeworkTeenagers are doing most the teaching Or adults with new black belts
