Our schools philosophy on the guard is that it can be a great tool, and one can become extremely skilled and dangerous from there, but we want to do all that is possible to be in top position.

Are Nut shots allowed?

I believe that sparring is very important in learning how to defend one's self. If nothing else it helps develop the ability to absorb a strike, and use that as a trigger mechanism to launch an attack.

The best self defense techinique is the the one that effectively controls the situation. This could range from words to diffuse the situation, to a lethal blow with a weapon.

The guys lucky he didn't end up on the wrong end of a gun. Reminds me of what happened to f-14 wong.

In a seriously dangerous confrontation, absolutly, better to be judged by twelve then carried by six.

When it comes to multiple attackers, I believe in the three E's Escape-If possible Eyes-Attack eyes and keep moving Escalate-Get a weapon, or if they have a weapon, a better weapon.

As a teacher, and a martial artist, i say no, the average student does no have the responsibility to use their knowledge appropriatly

It depends, Some arts that focus on ground fighting could be detrimental if taught as a end all be all form of street self defense, due to the presence of weapons and multiple attackers. Dont get me wrong, learning to handle yourself in a grappeling range is incredibly important, but you want to stay of the ground in a street fight. imo

Walker!?!?!?!, cmon your better than that

I believe that until you have shown the responsibility to use appropriate techniques for the situation, you should not be taught any techniques, let alone ones that could cause serious harm.

I agree with what mostley everyone else has said, if he can't understand 50%, don spar with him.
