A friend of mine (who I met on this board, actually, but NEVER posts) lives in san jose and has suddenly realized her school is not right for her. While she asks and asks to learn the techniques and katas, and she does, the rest of the school seems to be content simply exercising during class. (jogging, sit ups, push ups, jumping jacks, etc.) She has expressed sentiments of annoyance with higher ranking students who have bad form and bad attitudes, as well as students who progress too quickly. (A brown belt in a year?) This same brown belt admits to still working on the basics of kicking and punching, and only knows the first 4 yellow belt techniques.
Basically, this is not her first school, and she says she seems to keep picking the wrong ones, and now that she is looking again, she cannot tell the difference.
She is a member of MT and will read your responses herself, and was looking for good martial arts schools in the san jose area, any style. (altough I don't know why she wont post this herself - embarrassment?)
