Martial Arts Imposters

Be aware of martial arts imposters. They may seem genuine; but, what they teach may cause bodily harm or fatality. The techniques they teach are useless for defense.
In this video:

* Firstly, he thinks a 10th dan black belt is a red belt level
* He thinks anyone may wear a Red Belt. In fact, there are only 20 true Red Belt level artists worldwide
* His punches are performed incorrectly. That could result in broken wrists
* He is much too slow for even black belt rank
* His "Kata" is useless. He blocks in one direction; then punches in another direction. He would be attacked while punching.
* His crescent kick is much too wide
* His fake flying front kick into a flying right front kick is yellow belt level kicking.
* He does not perform correct moves. He flails his hands.
* His double center block is too wide
* He uses incorrect stances
* None of his movements are based on Goju Ryu
* In other videos, he bullies his students. He inflicts potentially permanent damage to his student's fingers and toes
He claims an instructor in one of the photos in his dojo is his instructor. That is not true. He would never make it past ye;low belt from his punches alone. The instructor is no longer alive also.
He; obviously, purchased the dojo, claimed a deceased instructor as his own, dyed a faded black belt red; then taught. The belt is too narrow for a true Red Belt.
He only teaches basic moves.
Be aware of these imposters. They waste money, time; and effort.
