Martial Development Posted March 24, 2010 First, a note from our sponsor... DojoScore.com is a new online directory for students and teachers of qigong, yoga, and martial arts. Instructors can list and promote their schools for free. Students can search for schools in their area, and publish reviews of their favorite instructors, also for free. So try it now--did we mention it's free? Â On to the discussion... What are your favorite methods and criteria for researching local teachers? What steps, if any, did you take before signing up with your current teacher? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
