    Stay away from it -- it's a load of crap.

    All those "Halls of Fame" or "Sokeship Councils" or "Grandmasters Councils" are a scam and just an opportunity for the frauds of the martial arts world to come together and promote each other and congratulate each other on being frauds.

    I didn't say it was a scam, but anyone can get in. from what I understand, someone nominates you - probably one of your students in your case. but you have to pay an induction fee and annual membership fees afterward - like most organizations.

    Most of them basicly go through lists of schools and send you your "nomination". You have to accept by attending a banquet, where they over charge you big time for a rubber chicken dinner. Then you have to pay annual fees to stay in the "hall of fame"

    They get big names like CUng Le but paying to fly them to a banquet and honoring them (they, unlike you, don't pay a dime), then they can advertise that "famous person X" is in their hall of fame

    thanks guys i figured so however it is hosted by inside kung fu mag so I thought it was legit. although i have dedicated 26 years into learning and teaching the MA I dont feel worthy enough to be in a hall of fame...
