Thank you Mr. Klein. Outside of word-of-mouth recommendations, a powerful website is probably the single best marketing tool a karate school can have.

Well written Sam. The blog has also driven increased traffic to our own website, resulting in brand awareness, more inbound links as you say, and better SEO. In addition, the perception of your brand as an authority on the subject of martial arts has begun. I don’t understand why more martial arts websites don’t include them.

This post is really great and informative. Martial arts is really good for kids. This will help them to have more self confidence.

Comment on How Young Should Kids Start Karate by Jim SFK

I think that 5 is an appropriate age… but I think you’d agree that the physical and mental attributes gained from martial arts can benefit kids even younger.

Comment on How Hard to Hit by rick queary

thank you for the vote of confidence. i have noticed only one continual “complainer”. i won’t mention names since no one knows him and it really doesn’t matter anyway.

i have to remember there are two ways you can get hurt: intentionally and unintentionally. unintentional example would be when i (and i do this all the time) lunge in and step on the opponents foot. in the blog you refer to, i did this and the guy has a history of bad ingrown toenails.

i honestly do try to control myself and have been working harder on controlling myself since that last dojo incident. i don’t feel as if i’m hitting any harder than 50% and do try to go MUCH lighter when sparring against a child.

i’ve done more sparring at your dojo than in our own. my instructor doesn’t do a lot of sparring with us. i’m not sure of his reasoning, but it is what it is. he’s VERY good when he does spar against us. his instructor has told us that he’s the best fighter he has ever trained. but for whatever reason, he doesn’t have us spar much. and since i really hate sparring, i’m ok with it as long as i get to come up and learn from you and your students.

thank you for the patience, friendship, and opportunities.

Comment on Trying new sparring styles by rick queary

i’m very new to martial arts and even newer to sparring. i really appreciated getting to meet Mr Guzman. he gave me a couple of good pointers that i’m trying to incorporate into my sparring. you also have given me some insight and every time i get the opportunity to work out with your class, i’m all ears. i’m trying to absorb as much information as possible.

the biggest thing i’m trying to do right now is learn to hold back. i have a tendency to charge in like a bull in a china shop. so i’m learning to stay back, save my wind, watch for my opponent to give me openings.

i really enjoyed this article along with the videos. thank you for sharing!
