 |
|
I think that most KF members have probably seen Enter the Dojo by now, but for those who haven't, it is a satirical web series that makes fun of martial arts through an over-the-top character called Master Ken, the founder of Ameri-Do-Te and an 11th Degree Black Belt. Since this is a family-friendly website, I won't go into any details, and I will give this warning before you get any further: Enter the Dojo contains content intended for mature audiences!
As part of a promotional effort for their 3rd Season, Enter the Dojo came up with the idea to challenge real martial artists all over the world to record their own performances of Master Ken's "Thrust of Freedom Kata": https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ri_RBFa_FDA
A lot of people at my dojo thought it would be fun, and took up the challenge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiOBBsCI7Dk

I thought it was so funny when a local Dojo had Master Ken as a guest last year; the students cued up to take their pictures with him. The members of this McDojo never saw the irony!
