knocking sense into a person!

I can't believe the others listened to him!

Sounds a bit "old school", but usually not done by other students to set the other straight. Would have been done by the instructor himself. Nowadays that practice is outdated, and as everyone has said unacceptable. We learn from out experiences and how to better handle a similiar situation when it is now our turn to deal with questions from students.

God I get sick to my stomach everytime I see this post can't believe there are actually instructors out there like that.

That is definitly not acceptable. That is totally unneccesary. That "lesson" could have been taught in better fashion. What disturbs me even more however, is the fact that the other students listened to the instructor when he told them to beat up this "unruly" student. My question is, what are his teaching methods like if his students listen to that instruction w/o any qualms about what they're doing?

I just wanted everyone to know that he also asked me to teach the guy a lesson but I refused to get involved. I quit training with this guy years ago. He had a habit of losing his temper in class and he even smoked in class while we trained. For those of you that are curious, he was my Kempo instructor.

Too bad there are so many of these instructers, my friend was telling me at his old dojo that his instructer told the kids if they just did 100 sit ups they can have a brown belt , he left straight away.

Sounds like this "Instructor" needs to be taught a lesson... Maybe everyone in the class should knock of his headgear and punch him.

What happened to the student after that? Did he comeback? What did he say afterwards?

[pineapple]

I don't know what he said but he never came back to class!

Sounds like that instructor is a few frys short of a happy meal !!! A little coo coo for coco puffs if ya know what I mean.
