What I thought my six-year-old daughter would learn in tae-kwon-do class | What she actually learned |
---|---|
The Way of the Exploding Fist | Report bullying behavior to a trusted adult |
Death Before Dishonor | Never practice martial arts manuvers on a sibling or pet |
Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique | Share with the class something kind you did this week, like you picked up your Legos without being asked or something |
Foe-shaming Mantra of the Ineffable Bodhisvatta | It’s easier if you tie the right side of your uniform first |
If You Meet the Buddha, Kill Him | We don’t use real weapons at this martial arts studio except for this one bo staff that is just for show and actually you’re not allowed near it |
Drunken Master Style | Annual membership in the American Taekwondo Association costs how much?!? |
