I have no real comment on this considering I've never met or seen any of this. Anybody want to try and get back to me on it?

Only if his marketing skillz are good.

This stuff has already started to spread. It's the next big thing that's going to hit the beach. My gym threw away all their heavy bags and is now offers courses in Tae Bo and "Karate Body." It's an unhealthy new-age mix of pseudo-martial arts and yoga. The trophy wives love it.

What the **** is Futari? Sounds like a video game company.

[Traditional Tom]

Atari was an old video game company, I think.

Hitori = One person

Futari = 2 people.

Okay, what's Hitori?

They say anyone can explore karate in a "safe, noncompetitive environment."

Who in the hell is gonna learn to fight in a safe, noncompetitive environment?

I believe futari is goju karate's equivalent to kung-fu's sticky hands

This stuff is really, really sickening. They're always trying to get me to pop my head into their class, to validate this stuff. Because they know that I train Muay Thai and kenjutsu, and I'm Japanese, while the instructor is this skinny blonde beach babe.
