Kicking heads and making friends
white owl replied to ShoriKid's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
My training partner is my best friend and just happens to be my husband so I donot know if that counts but we started karate together with our son. But at our dojo we are all friends we stay after class and talk all the time and we do stuff outside of the dojo together. -
It really depends on the situation. I would try to avoid it, if at all possible. But if it can came down to protecting my family you better believe I would fight.

New Here. Have a question--stubborn student.
white owl replied to tone loc's topic in Instructors and School Owners
I honestly really think he is to young and doing time outs he properly saying thank you quitely to himself exspecially if he does not want to participate. An I think there is your answer. -
But first I would grap his thumb twist and pull and get his hand off my neck than diddo the above.

Looks like it to me. Is that him breathing? it sonds like my son shaking his box of bee-bees.

In the meantime take precautions such as ensuring that you're not in the changing rooms alone or that someone is always with you. Also acting confident will make you come across as though you are confident and you will be more likely to be left alone. Very good point!!!

Thanks for replies you guys. Like I said earlier I'm not 100 0/0 but know where near like I was I say about 75 0/0. As for the flu shot I did not get it this year and I do not think it would do any good every one I new that got it still got the flu and it lasted about as long as mine. Patrick, I hope you feel better. Just drink plenty of fluid. start now.

I got another question. Do your parents watch class? If not have them do so let them see it for them self?
-
Get out of there. It could become worse and you could get hurt. Tell your parents!

Wearing club logos or clothes on the street?
white owl replied to Canoe2fish's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
I do not see anything wrong with wearing your club's logo. I do and I have not a problem this far. Usely I get ask where my school is located. But I see your guys point though. -
I do not know about you guys, but in the area that I from we had a virus going around for a while now. It is a bad cough and does not go away, I have had it now for 3 months. It is a lot better now but I still do not feel 100 0/0 I still accastionly go into a coughing fit but no where near like what it was, I sware it felt like I had asma but I do not, it interfeared with my ma training. I went to the dr. a month in half ago, their was nothing she can really do for it, she said. Gave me some meds. that did nothing but knocked me out which was good because I had not been sleeping real good. I was wondering has any one suffered with it, too and how long and what you did for it? I was very fortunate that knowone else in my household suffer with other than me.

I'm speechless, I think my 3 year old niece can do better and I have not showed her anythig but a front kick.

Something totally unexpected
white owl replied to marmaduke's topic in Share Your Testing, Grading, or Promotion
Congrats to him that is a big responsibility an his sensei must think he earn it he should feel proud. congrats!!! -
I at least talk to your sensei if he does not want to talk to you then leave and find a new school because then you no then that you did the right thing if that makes since.

I know it is hard but I would listen to your Dr. and take it slow you do not want to go through surgery again and then you are off that much longer. do little things at home working your forms (Slowly) maybe some shadow boxing but the main thing is listen to body. I kow at my dojo our sensei will let us watch class if your out do to injury or health. it is hard watching because you want to be in their but at least you know what is going on.
-
When I first started I either was really quite or did just mouthed it (so not at all) now I find I do it all the time exspecially with hard techniques and in my katas I do a real intense one an in class when we do drills I find some times I am the only one doing it, so the answer is yes it will get easier.

Badly Bruised my foot may have broken it doing around kick on my spouse with no foot protection we were doing free sparring no protection. Another I twisted my ankle on the matts in our dojo and pulled the tendon in my foot. Bruised rips from a hook punch I hit the floor for that could not breath very scarrey. And reinjured my back from previous injury that did not happen in the ma.

How scared REALLY are you to fight?
white owl replied to Throwdown0850's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
Adonis, I am also nervous about getting hurt also but like you said you move past and face it. That is why we practice martial arts to learn to get over the nerves and the fears so we can defend our selfs (or someone). As for sparing I get hurt just about every time I spare meaning new bruise, but it makes me better (I am only fearful of my spouse now he gets me everytime). I was in a fight when I was in school I was not in the martial arts a the time that came many years later but I hope if it ever come to having to fight I think I could handle myself. Is that not why we train? To be able to protect our selfs or our kids and family. That is one of the reason why I train. -
A few years back (like 10) I moved to N.C. with my husband who was station in the Marine Corps at the time and had to go through my first hurricane that was pretty scarey we had a tornado that form right behind our house which we heard it but did not no for sure that it was a tornado until we heard it on the news 2 days later when the power came back on I will never forget that sound. Living in eastern pa we get tornados but not very often but never hurricanes.

anything fast and heavy like Drowning pool, Disturbed, Trapt (which is my ring tone and has been before never back down came out) rob zombie, ac/dc, Eminem, linkin park, etc.

That is great and I wish your student luck in his up coming figh.

It is really sad. I try not to worry about cancer but it is almost as common now as a cold to me. Everyone around me has had or died from it or scared with it (meaning thought may have it but did not). As for smoking well I have heard second hand smoke is just as bad as smoking your self. I do not no if it true but I have heard that several times.
