publicly exposing Adashi kim

Reviews, Videos, and Everything Else Trollshido

Hey, i was bored and decided to look check out the infamous “adashi kims” website. Anyway, the idea to publicly expose him just jumped into my head. Is this something we should do? And if it is, how should we go about doing this? More online posts? Media involvement? Note: i’m being very serious about this.
Edit: His website is http://www.ashidakim.com/, and his e-mail is DOJOPress@aol.com.

I wish we could go back in time and publish this article in 1987 or so.

3

how come?

4

wait, has this guy been running around teaching “ninjutsu” that long?

5

And people question whether abortions should be legal.

mm…but still, i really mean it. This guys training is like other Mcdojos…only thing is, this is probably worse. I mean, the whole point of this website is to expose fakes, right? I’ve done some research on what this guys done…and its a lot. Like 14+ books and some videos of fake martial arts. I’ve only been on this forum for a few days, but there are lots of competent, skilled martial artist with good working knowledge of martial arts (unless somehow there are a lot of people lying about their martial arts experience). No one seems to like this guy, so why not try to expose him as the con man he is?, or at least discredit him?

You didn’t read the Newbie faq did you? Or look at the story on the Front Page here at Bullshido?

Or read any other threads?

Then again, your styles are TKD and Kendo, so you’re new to a lot of things regarding fighting, physical fighting or fighting frauds.

Your right, i am new, and i do have lots to learn. And the newbie faq? The only rules i might be violating are #15…but i did provide a link to his website…and #17, but thats already been done and agreed upon, it seems. Sorry if i sound kind of overzealous…and don’t worry. Im not going to do anything stupid like call the media about this guy.

Well, in fairness – if he ran a search for old threads on “Adashi Kim” he probably didn’t find much.

10

yes i did run some threads, and i didn’t find much other than no one seems to like him

Yes, he’s been around since ninjitsu was super trendy in the 80’s and no doubt saw a market niche yet to be exploited.

Maybe a complaint could be made via a US government agency: http://www.consumer.gov/
(complaints can be made at the bottom of the page)

Or ask an independent organisation to investigate eg. http://www.cfenet.com/home.asp

Or perhaps we could start an online petition and then send it to the relevant authorities?

12

maybe…but i’m not going to do anything without

  1. getting general approval of everyone here that something should be done
  2. the topic has been discussed by multiple people and a general plan of action has
    been decided.
  3. The plan discussed is acted upon by more people than just me (whos going to listen to a starving college student with only experience in TKD and loose research of ninjutsu?)

I’ll be nice and say

  1. You spelled “ashida” wrong
  2. if you read the front page article you’d know we’ve ALREADY exposed him
14

What about a criminal conviction for fraud?

Shinai when you posted this I could hear the blood curdling wail of baby Jesus crying.
