On you website I would like to see some kind of hall of shame
4:36 LITERALLY "The Knights Who Say NEE". 😂
I live in Peterborough in the uk 😅
Crazy how people actually believe this BS thanks for exposing all these fakes 👍
Great to see you looking at some of the martial arts BS we have in the UK.
They really gotta start crossing their legs and patting their back in the UFC when someone gets starched. Everyone knows that fixes it instantly.
Hahahaha so true 😂
WTF is up with that...
all these guys do that.
It’s 100% effective, the little rub on the neck and then SLAP, SLAP 😂
@@dasmuss6174 😂😂😂😂
Come on now, everyone knows UFC is fake.
We are the knights who say...niiiing!
Also, something I look for in a martial arts school: do they acknowledge, rather than try to dismiss, one's prior experience/existing techniques?
Once, at my previous karate club, it was just me, the instructor, and one other. We were working on the side kick, and the 3rd was doing it the way he'd been taught in Tang Soo Do previously. The instructor then said to him "Okay, so you have your side kick. If you get good at ours as well, you'll have an advantage over us."
It was never "No, forget that, this is how you do it properly!"
Haha that was my first thought. Blatant Monty Python rip off.
Whoops. I made the same reference in my comment! 😅
At least this means we have a good sense of humor. :)
Straight to the top brother
I always like a dojo that invites students from other schools to their sparring nights. Really good to test the effectiveness of techniques VS people who aren't expecting them.
Imo this ALWAYS went REALLY bad with the judo schools I've been to that did this.
You invite other dojos into your dojo & those other dojos end up sending their black belts to recruit STRAIGHT outta your dojo.
Then if it's even picked up on WTF is ACTUALLY going on, things turn into serious fights where it's like this "dojo honor" being defended & throws like "drop morote seoi nage" end up being used & people get hurt & them grudges happen & it's really this HORRIBLY ugly thing starts growing & it envelopes people into it.
This was back in the 90's & early 2000's with me BEFORE the internet & social media was born. I couldn't imagine how bad that would play into things.
Opening up your dojo to other schools in my experience 100% over time ended up this way EXCEPT for when it was a relative of the dojo who had his own school & they were just pretty much mixing it up to add a new flavor here & there.
@@ClickClack_Bam sounds like judo is a toxic community.
@@ced326 There are toxic community everywhere, not only in Judo. Most of the Judo community is more than ok, don't take just a comment on youtube to judge a whole martial-art.
@@ClickClack_Bam Insightful answer that matches a lot of my experience. Seminars, tournaments and sparring are always between friends, but my teacher had a way of keeping all the classes separate so he could have people matched up as 'badge friends' with the same instructor, but might never have met before. Being invited to his classes in other suburbs meant he really trusted you.
@@ClickClack_Bam My experience in karate & tae kwon do has been exactly the opposite. The visitors have always been incredibly respectful, and we've gone to their schools as visitors we've behaved the same. Any time I've attended any "cross pollination" event the explicit, stated goal is to share knowledge and for BOTH sides to teach and learn. Then again, the schools I've been to generally foster "The only person you should be competing with is yourself." kinds of atmospheres, which tends to discourage people that have something to prove from attending.
Finding a good school means to me finding teachers that have a genuine passion and a realistic approach.
Too many of the schools I see, the "masters" try so hard to act tough which is a level of immaturity you don't want in a teacher.
By the way, I have another bullshido school for you called "Seven Mountains Spirit Fist Kung Fu".
You are just jeolous that you didn't come up with this awesome name first, admit it
That's crazy...That all those people had their tongues and their toes in the right spot. 🤣🤣
When I was searching for a good martial arts school. I went and watched the interactions between the instructor and the students. I looked to see if the students were having fun and if other parents are around and involved. I also actually checked in on the instructor's references. Thank you for keeping Martial Arts Legit. As for your new website. I would like to see some McDojo gear like those cool hats that you wear. I might like to have have one. OR possibly some of those emoji images on a t-shirts with silly quotes or something.
Clearly this is the art of helping folks with impulsive fainting disorders to gently fall to the ground. I salute this ninja master and his contribution to the infirm.
He is another type of Dillman dingleberry.
The guy before the intro just fell asleep waiting for something to happen.
Imagine being a grown man and pretending you have literal superpowers.
Sensei Mark's kids' classes look fun. Kids are just running around in martial arts uniforms having padded sword fights with each other while an adult makes sure nobody gets out of hand. That's a great time!
... thats a daycare...Not a martial arts school...he's teaching bullshido
We need more Mark if theres this much more to look at!!
A good school is one that acknowledges three things: 1. A method is only as good as it can prove it is by competition with other methods.. 2. There is no magic bullet that will allow you to set aside strength and conditioning. 3. Run-fu and gun-fu are the final word in self defense.
"To me"... But what happen if the opponent dosen't speak English?
In my personal case I'm invulnerable to his powers😂
have tested it. works 100 per cent. I was mugged at the station and after a spirited "me!!!" the guy was immediately with me. My teeth are now in a water glass on my bedside table and my money is gone, but chipower is an absolutely real thing. Tomorrow I'm going to the local MMA studio full of losers and show them the true art of martial art. Can't wait to put them all on the mat with my chi.
:P
Well, there's your problem, you were supposed to say "ning!!"
“Oh Hi Mark” best clip yet!
Man, I remember back in the 80s, being a little kid, we were certain beyond doubt "mystical" martial arts super powers were real!!!
I really like that NLP was in the very center of his resume. It's the one legitimate technique you use to convince people you're capable of all the other bullshit surrounding it.
I have no words to describe my astonishment. It's amazing how many freaks are out there.
I’ll never forget when BJ Penn tried to take GSP’s back and blamed him for greasing when he couldn’t. Now we know George had one toe up and one toe down.
Humor, authority and simplicity. Physicalness and technique are a given, its training
I love the word Ning!! I will use this from now on 😂😂😂
I really want to see one of these students in an mma fight getting their ass handed to them and coach is in their corner shouting, "use the force Bruce!" 😂😂😂
Lol! Those kids "sparring" in the background at 2:50. So well trained!
The other day I saw your commercial by the way I was pretty cool
Thank you for thank. Will do more with them in the future for sure
I'm a Police Officer and yesterday I was arrested a suspect who was resisting. I shouted "Me" but it didn't work so I just stuck to my jiujitsu skills 😊
💪
Better than "suicide him" with 6 bullets in the back. 🙃
Important in a dojo is a good teacher who isn't afraid to spar with anybody.
for a good martial arts place i would say one that is in line with my goals. back when i was a kid doing karate the place i went to was decent got my energy out and gave me something to focus on. now that im in my 20s i am focusing on bjj and look for places that dont have stupid rules, has loyalty going both ways, and has people that want to train with some intensity.
I liked the part where the instructor said “chu” and his uke sort of paused and then fell, as if he thought “oh right I’m supposed to fall now”. I look for a martial arts school that is clean above all!
I think a “hall of shame” for like Dillman, Ashida Kim etc would be funny on the website
Its like a M.L.M of martial arts ? All this time watching your videos still trying to wrap my head around it all.
Thanks for this video , i needed a good laugh today.
To be fair I've been "knocked out" once or twice during really long lectures.. 😅
Heres when ya know you've found a good school.
-Ya finish classes exhausted, but also energetic from having learned something new, or improved something old
-Ya feel a purpose and have a goal between lessons
-Students from other schools are invited to train and share information
Theres more but I don't wanna ramble on
Loved the clip from the foot fist way man, that movie really hit the nail on the head for me lol
The kids hitting each other with sticks in the background says everything I need to know…😂
I’m dying to see some behind the scenes footage of these people training for their con.
Does anyone else ever want to take a year of chi/empty force powers type martial arts? And then, slowly get the teacher's trust for a year, play a long with him, and then at the most critical moment during a big display just stand there and not let him do anything? Am I crazy for thinking that would be fun?
A good martial arts school will have a picture of Frank Dux on the wall. That is how you know they are legit.😊
Frank Duc and Steven Segal.
These always blow my mind! Where do they come up with this stuff?
Wow, chi kung and qigong, impressive to learn the same thing in two different dialects
1. Comradarie. Do the people like each other in the space. 2. Multiple instructors. Are there a number of experts on hand who get along and are passing on skills. 3. Live sparring, pressure testing, are we hitting things, being hit, putting things into practice. 4. Women & Children. If a space has kids and women in it in decent ratios it is unlikely to be hot bed for meat heads. It shows an ability to be open to different kinds of folks and that is not always the case in realms where men hit each other for fun. 5. Rewards dedication. Advancement takes time and people advance in steady but noticiable and predictable ways. That's it. Those are my five. Love your channel. Train hard. Stay safe. Try and be more capable every day.
had me with The Room reference :)
I remember the human stun gun he was on Stan Lee superhuman and he was turned out to be a fraud on that show
I look for “pressure testing” of what they are teaching, and physical improvement activities.
Also, I say y’all have a “highlight video of the day” on the page. Sort of a “best of the worst” if you will.
Keep up the good work amigo!
Tang Sudo.

Welcome to my dojo!
I look at the instructors demeanor and the attitudes of the students then I look at the instructors teaching methods. I'd like to see your website have self defense technique videos from your favorite teachers and styles.
Great break down!!! Q1 - When I was looking for a BJJ gym, my first impression would see if they staff and the students are friendly and welcoming. Q2- Please provide a list of all the fraud who scammed people and also a list of martial arts sex offenders.
What do I look for in a martial arts school? A shrine to Diemon Dave. You ain't legit without no beer bottle ninjee chucks and a dang ol' toilet plunger on the walls.
JUDY chop!!!
Can't go around judi chopping and ninjee kicking everyone.
Good luck!!!
so this is what wallace does when he aint hanging out with gromit
The best martial arts school I ever walked in...Day One the head instructor says, "There's nothing mystical, magical or secret going on here. Nothing I can teach you that you may not be able to find elsewhere. If you want to be successful here it'll take time and sweat equity." First week was free. He also said that he wasn't the instructor for everyone and if he wasn't for you that you should find who and what was. Humble and honest.
As far as your website I'd like to see you share some videos of good, legitimate martial artists from various systems. Doesn't have to be all mma. Just decent instructors doing their best to legitimately help their students.
I want Dillman’s “Ningg” as my text tone. It never gets old.
From my experience; the best thing to look for in a self defense / martial arts school that takes itself seriously is how often do they spar, and how do they spar? Is it a free for all or is the teacher showing a handful of selected techniques this week or month then wanting to see you apply & counter them in sparring against each other? etc. etc. builds more knowledge than whiffing at air!
"The sound enhances the attack" reminds me of the sticker that says "this sticker adds 3 horse power"
Oh my god that guy doing his little fat-run when she says "me" 😂
"Is it possible to learn this power ?," "Not from a Jedi ."
May the fourth
@@baoxidiaoyu and also with you
My alarm clock effects my chi and it forces me to sleep in.
I look for a place where I always feel welcome, prioritizing places with fun classes and effective tech.
Well I don't know maybe the sound of your back cracking by a master might actually scare the cold into leaving LOL😅
I have a self defense strategy which involves saying " thats not your purse" and a swift groin kick
That sacred geometry is deadly!
What I looked for in a martial arts school, for my kids, was a school where they taught practical self defense techniques with an open mind and where the children were having fun. Why? You may ask. Because any half decent martial arts school can teach the fundamentals. What makes someone successful is that the enjoy it, internalize it, stick with it and feel free to explore different techniques. It worked I chose the Hung Fa Yi Wing Chun school because I watched their classes and while they taught traditional Wing Chun, they also focused on the practical aspects of self defense and made sure that the kids could handle themselves in real self defense situations. My daughter advanced and became the only teenager in the adult class and then went on to train in Krav Maga with a professional bouncer as her sparring partner. My martial arts background is fairly diverse and the instructors allowed me work with them exploring different techniques and from different arts with open minds and without ego, just for the love of the arts. That's the real key to becoming a successful martial artist, love of the arts.
I look for 3 main things when looking for a good martial arts school: Instructors who are experienced and are good teachers, a student body conducive to learning, and real life applicability. The latter is pretty loose, and mainly means no magic bullshit. My enemy doesn't need to share my beliefs in order for my techniques to work, for example.
A good thing to look for is an instructor who doesn't have an over inflated ego and is passionate about what they're is teaching
Best thing to look for is they haven't been featured on McDojo.
I didn't shop around at all and was very lucky. My daughter goes to a gym with no chi and a very supportive second family.
The competition trophies on display are ridiculous. There is a demo team that knows their stuff. We were able to spend a week with the school before we spent a dime.
All the above made my decision easy. There was evidence of learning, there was evidence of effective techniques, and the classes were very well structured.
That was two years ago and the gym continues to improve. About a month ago, the owner said he wanted to show me something and brought me his phone. It was a McDojo Life video.
My God you are a real piece of work!
Thank you :)
I can't tell if this comment is serious 😅
@@nathanc1300 unfortunately he is serious 😂 he’s the guy in the video
@@McDojoLife 😂😂 i see! Great content sir
@@nathanc1300 thank you. The guy actually challenged me to try it and to fight and I accepted on both counts. He dodged it over and over again.
I remember one time I convinced a group of people that I had chi powers,
then the recess bell rang and we went back inside to color. We were 5.
Thanks for another great vid man. The 'Q' in qigong is pronounced more like a 'ch' sound :)
What I'm looking for in a martial arts school is good honest training with good teachers ( no mcdojo nonsense ).
CARRY ON BROTHER!!!
As someone who’s been doing martial arts since Daniel San visited Okinawa, I recommend to people looking for their first school to treat it like buying a new/used car.
Figure out what you want out of it first. Are you after a little city commuter, a people mover for the fam, a sports car, or maybe an off-road vehicle. Then go visit a few schools, have a look around and maybe even take a test drive or two and see if it fits for you.
Some people want that hard intense become a fighter type training and others want some physical activity that’s not running or the gym. Some want striking and sparring whilst others hate the idea of anything coming near their head or just want to roll around on the mats with their kids.
As for the website, hell, I can’t even think of what to put on mine so I’m gonna be bugger all use to you 😏
Ah yes, Master Dilman, of the Knights Who Say Ning. A legend in his own time.
Spleen 15 combines Spleen 6 and Spleen 9..so it can be applied much more efficiently due to less moves. Groin stomp 1 is also good unless the opponent has his left big toe raised..
Maybe that's why Master Ken stresses "ReStomp the Groin."
oh now i know why the Knights who say NI ! were unbeatable. they were using their chi voodoo powers on Arthur and his knights.
Answer 1 : i m not looking for martial school, so, i dunno.
Answer 2 : martial art memes, articles about the good guys of martial arts, a Dillman leaderboard.
I tried it and it worked...I was playing this game and had this dude dressed in yellow. Suddenly I got him to yell "GET OVER HERE!!!" and sure enough...the person was pulled right over to me by some kind of force
For your second question, I’d like to see a function on the website overlaid over like maps some thing where are you can go to your region and show a GPS location for places that have been called out on the channel. Possibly even a link to the video
Every time I hear a list on Bullshido, I hear Dillman saying "Plus" after each item 😂 ➕
A good school has regular sparring where people aren’t trying to kill each other, but also aren’t just tapping each other, they have competition participants, they have a good camaraderie and friendly people
That Human Stun gun guy sounds breathless just talking
I just had a message from Sensei Adlington (which he transmitted telepathically from Peterborough, because he can do that kind of thing). He said that if you don't retract your slanderous accusations, he will say a magic word at exactly midnight three days from now, and this will cause your nose to itch uncontrollably until you say sorry to him.
Imagine what he could do for Covid!
You can't make two fakes like that, it will make a black hole of snakeoil salesmen. 😂
I felt it, it went through me and stained my pants
Given that once a chiropractor pulled my elbows back and it made such a crack and I got sick after the session, I'm inclined to believe the cold thing :D
Everyone thought these masters were genuine until it was noted that they all performed their tricks on the 1st April.
Ya gotta admit though - that's a nice Grand master belt he has on.
Looks like master Mark needs to say a special word and push himself back from the buffet.
A uk no touch knock out dude! Man I didn't think we had any
Honestly, that first back/neck crack rules lol. My husband does it for me sometimes and it works if something is pinched in the neck, but definitely doesn’t help a cold
You're telling me you had a perfect setup for Monty Python and the Knights Who Say NI! AND YOU DIDNT TAKE IT?!?!
Used it in another video lol
A banner that says "fo da STREETZ"
We are the knights that say "Meeeeee" 🤣😂🤣😆
1. Bag work
2. Sparring/ hard sparring
3. History/ references of the governing body, federations, associations etc. Traceability of the art itself.
4. History references of the instructor.
5. Personally, I think an instructor should also have prior experience in at least 1 different martial art.
6. Of course, is the lesson practical for e.g are we just doing circuits all the time and not actually learning anything? Is the instructor constantly teaching the old knife disarming tricks?
I look for the overall vibe of the students and teachers, and the abilities and scommon sense and sound physics of the techniques being taught
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Next time I roll with a wrestler I'm getting a collar tie and whispering sweet meeeeeeees in their ear. Can't wait to change the game!
The school I go to is run by a great guy. He's aware of all this "energy" stuff and denounces it. We do learn "pressure points", but he makes it clear it's really hitting nerve clusters not "chakra points". And unlike these videos, he has us try it on each other (safely) to get a feel on how to use them, so I know he's not teaching BS.
And unlike Mr. Mark over here, he's an actual Tang Soo Do instructor.
I feel like if you see the students working together on a drill. It shows they put their stuff to work.
How dare he give Tang Soo Do a bad name! []
Tang Soo!
Trust and integrity
