Osu!

Grade inflation hurts us all, TMD.

If McDojo A starts lowering the age for grades, and McDojo B starts reducing the time in grade, then it's only a matter of time before McDojo C does both. Soon enough we have five-year-old black belts who need velcro to tie their belts, and mothers to tie their shoes.

Now, in the same town, Real Dojo is trying to offer real Karate, with real discipline, and real grades that members really have to work for. They now not only have to overcome the natural human behavior of prospective students taking the path of least resistance, but also the public perception that Karate is either a babysitting service or an expensive joke.

Osu!
