Karate classes are the ideal thing for children who need to concentrate, defend themselves and boost their self-confidence. But wait. I was not pleased in the least when I saw this bunch of kids with their master, practising their basics. Wondering why?
They were doing it late evening. Between 8.30 pm and 9 pm. No. That was not the problem. In Mumbai, any hour is an earthly hour. My problem...was that they were practising on the road, in the middle of it...where buses, cars, three-wheelers and two-wheelers zoom in and out. So what if it had less traffic? And located at that terminal hill-top point? Agreed Mumbai has less space too. But to get them to practise along a road divider!
They were being taught self-defence. If a bus or car rammed into them...which defense mechanism would come to their rescue?
