I work in social media and online marketing and I couldn’t agree more with your assessment. Twitter could also be useful if a student is attempting a technique or kata after class and needs a quick piece of advice. Or if the instructor wishes to expand or clarify a concept discussed in class.
This is my first visit here, but I’ll be returning.
All the best,

Ikigai,
Thanks for your comment. Your suggestions are dead on. The technology allows direct access to students at all times of the day. I’ve found that most “tweets” are not worth being sent to my phone but I know if I had an instructor that used this I would definitely have that feature enabled.
I think the bigger challenge is breaking the technological barrier that seems to exist with martial arts instructors and the very computers that would assist in saving time and/or money.
anything with a online social buzz can increase student count for sure.
interesting post, will come back here, bookmarked your site
