Hiya, Defending Ladies is gallant and all but some of us can fend for ourselves. Anyways I would say to resort to fighting only as a last resort. But if you're going to fight make sure you hit the hardest and land every technique otherwise you're wasting your time. Em
I read in there all the time, especially he classics,such as Keats and Austen. I figure why waste good reading time. I also firmly support the roo off the top, anything else would be uncivilized, well not really. Nice topic by the way. Emily
Hiya, Sounds like you might want to rethink the school you attend. As a blackbelt my job is not to punish students but to teach them. Unless I feel that a student is very much in the wrong or has shown disrespect I don't see the necessity for such punishment. Personally I prefer to warn a person about their behavior and the speak with tem privately if it continues. But if you are truly happy with your school oterwise maybe you should speak with some of the blackbelts who have such a fondness for push-ups. Emily
