not sure if this is the correct spot to post this but I think it is, would prefer it here because anytime I post outside of either the Muay thai, standup, or gear sections of the forum, the threads get bombarded with nonsense.
anyways my question is:
I would like to run my own gym one day and one of the programs I would like to have at my gym besides muay thai would be kids karate. so if I want to teach kids karate, i need to be a black belt in karate, so I am wondering how long it would take me to get my black belt? Can I use my MT exp to speed the process up? Or possible start higher than a white belt? Can I just be like hey guys, i fight muay thai so let me test for my black belt? kinda hard for me to find the proper words for what I am asking but hopefully you guys get what I mean. Hoping my MT exp would help out somehow and shorten the process of getting the black belt. I would also guess it depends on what kind of karate. Im sure a kyokushin black belt is much harder to earn than a black belt in whatever karate is usually taught at all the local kids karate schools with 12 yr old black belts etc. which style of karate is the one generally taught at the kids karate schools?
been watching alot of this guys stuff lately, its easy to tell he knows wtf he is talking about and can definitely kick some ass.
and for the karate haters, here I am doing the same exact combo.
