Dojo is a Japanese word which means "the place of the way". It is the training hall where you study.

What types of martial arts teach discipline?

All kinds of martial arts teach discipline, because without discipline, you cannot learn true martial arts. Whether or not you actually achieve any discipline from studying martial arts, has nothing to do with the art itself, but is determined by the attitude presented by the master/sifu/sensei of the dojo, and by yourself. If you study at a serious dojo, then such things as discipline, power, improved health and harmony will present itself to you during the expanse of training. Martial Arts without discipline = trouble..


Where do people learn martial arts?

There is no hard and fast rule as to where you can learn martial arts. Choose one martial art discipline and start training. Well if you want to learn proper martial arts then I suggest you to train under an experienced instructor. Look for the best feasible martial arts school in your area and sign up for class.


What do you call a martial arts school?

It depends upon the martial art. It can also differ based on the rank of the instructor. Japanese martial arts refer to the instructor as sensei. Sensei is Japanese for teacher, literally translating before born or one who is born before. Chinese arts use the term 'sifu.' Korean arts use the term 'saboom.'


What do you call a martial arts center?

That will depend on the school or style you are studying. The Japanese word is dojo. Other styles may use the term doha or even temple.

They can just watch the movie either online or at the movie theater. They can also go to dojo arena and experience the live performance of the fighters.
