martial arts/karate club

lwong81 · 07-16-04, 10:01 PM

Hello,

I will be a new student to Cal Poly Pomona this fall, and I didn't notice a karate club. Does anyone have any information or would like to start a club?

(I am a 3rd kyu in shotokan karate.)

Thanks,

L Wong

there is a karate class...and u can take it as many times as you want...so its somewhat like a club...

I think that is only for beginners. But I am not sure, I can't get in touch w/ the instructor.

on the schedule of classes, it had two different sections: beginner and advanced karate. I don't know if it's still split apart or combined as just a regular karate class.

i think aikido became combined into one class.

sometimes, the teacher works at other schools, so it may be hard to contact them..ehe

There is only one Akido now because one of the instructor Iverson no longer teaches it.

Remember about half of Kinesiology classes will be cut for the fall 2005 quarter. Haven't checked if a Karate class will be offered for the fall.

Hey wong, I would like to start a martial arts club, I'm a 1st degree balck belt in Tae Kwon Do, It would be gre3at to start a club!

KwonA3 · 08-16-04, 12:41 AM

I'd like to join a martial arts club, That'd be great!

Find an KIN instructor (or non KIN instructor) that is willing to start a Tae Kwon Do club. I don't think it would cost much or any money to start a campus club.
Actually, you might not require a Cal Poly instructor in order to start an organization. Should check out the OSL Office of Student Life office for more info on starting a campus charter.

Let me know who is really interested.

Hey i have really been looking forward to a martial arts class. i take Red dragon karate and i am a first degree black. i am up for a martial arts club. im down

awesome, i dont know martial arts, but i've seen some crazy martial artists do some insane flips...im really into that kind of stuff since they correlate with what i love to do: dancing. there's one LA dance team called Sick Step with a crazy ass martial artist who just flips and flips all over the place and on top of that, he can dance

LaRicanBoi · 07-20-05, 09:48 PM

That guy is steve terada. and yes he does kick ass

Keng · 07-20-05, 10:03 PM

Sorry, fliping around is NOT martial art.

hausome · 07-20-05, 11:09 PM

well, a lotta martial artists are good at it! for a dance class we had a brazillian fighter show us all these moves which look like eddie in virtual fighter...kinda like a break dance/fighting style, and boy can he flip...i bet he could take down a couple guys using his fighting techniques. does that count as a martial art?

Keng · 07-21-05, 02:04 AM

I believed it's called Brazilian Battle Dance. Fighting technique doesn't really count as Martial Art. Martial Art is more toward you trained after a specific style, such as Jeet Kune Do, Akido, Judo, Karate etc. They hardly do flip in those. In the United States, it's more like to show who's more flashy, such as who can turn more in the mid air. I saw this Martial Art competition on TLC, I was thinking WTF is this?
