http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDojo

http://www.bullshido.net/

Bullshido is a derogatory term used by some English-speaking martial arts aficionados to describe fraudulent, deceptive, or inept martial arts teaching.It is a portmanteau of bullshit, a slang term used to denote a worthless product, and bushido, the samurai code of honor in Japan. Bullshido is considered to be the antithesis of bushido, and is generally applied to martial arts schools where their instructors publish pseudoscientific claims or unverifiable assertions concerning their lineage or training methods, or emphasize blatant commercialism over substance in teaching, training, personal conduct, or business dealings.

Traits

Some traits often seen as bullshido include training methods that have no practical application, prohibitions intended to prevent students from realising this, and instructors who use an exaggerated or fake persona to attract students (e.g., claiming exceptional or supernatural abilities gained by training in that manner).
School exclusivity

One traditional practice some consider to be bullshido is the demand that students not be a part of any other martial arts school of the same style during their tenure at the school, without permission from the instructor. Some schools prohibit training in another style altogether. Proponents of this regulation believe that learning multiple types of martial arts simultaneously will interfere with the clear transmission of information from the teacher to student.[citation needed] However, opponents hold that as consumers students have the right to pursue whatever endeavors they wish, and that they are only obligated by the school’s code of conduct while taking classes at the school. Some opponents also point out that such a rule often exists to minimize the possibility the school’s methods or quality of instruction will be seen as being inferior to others’.


Impractical training methods

Bullshido is also said, by proponents of the concept, to consist of training methods that are impractical if they are used outside of the context of the bullshido school. Noted martial artists such as Bruce Lee and Jon Bluming have asserted that board-breaking and kata (forms) are of limited benefit towards actual fighting proficiency and often used as “filler” to occupy class time. This view is very common in modern mixed martial arts or combat sport circles as well. These critics maintain that such ancillary activities often become the focus of one’s martial arts training at the expense of learning how to implement the techniques in a realistic situation. They suggest that the best means to prepare to use one’s skills in a realistic situation is through the use of full or hard contact, non-stop sparring with which students’ current skill levels can be realistically evaluated.

Advocates of methods such as board-breaking assert that these training methods have a valid place in martial arts. Particularly with younger students, accomplishments such as being able to break one or more boards can serve as a tangible sign of accomplishment as they advance in skill or rank. In regards to kata, some advocates claim that kata serve a purpose similar to that of shadowboxing in combat sports; the solo practice of techniques can help focus a student’s concentration on proper form and execution against an imaginary opponent. Modern practitioners of martial arts have less issue with these training methods when they are supplemental to intense sparring, rather than as a substitute (which is viewed as bullshido).
