I could go on and on...but I would just once love to see a demonstration where the participant wears a simple white dobak, doesn't kiyop throughout an entire form, where breaking is limited to practical strikes and where we don't endlessly try to do something just a little bit stupider than the guy right before us. I'd would love to see brief stories read, and awards given to students showing greatest: respect, indominable spirit, integrity and committment. Now...wouldn't that be boring?
