Bushido58266 Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 in martial arts u should never think of it as victory or defeat and alot of studios do not teach this but i think every martial artist should think this way. u should never think of victory or defeat no matter what, at a tournament or just sparring. just go into each fight and give it ur all. cause if u go into a fight giving 110% then if u win kool but if u lose who cares cause u know u gave it ur all and now u know that ull just have to train harder for the next time "Bushido is realized in the presence of death""TapouT or PassouT"
patusai Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I'd talk with my instructor. You said that he made you fight. Not sure what that means or why you make that comment. Regardless though perhaps he did it for a reason. Perhaps he saw something. Perhaps he expected the outcome of the match and your then confusion and difficulties afterwards. Perhaps he expected something different. Good luck. "Don't tell me the sky's the limit because I have seen footprints on the moon!" -- Paul Brandt
Son Goku the monkeyking Posted March 19, 2006 Author Posted March 19, 2006 guys, guys, thanku 4 the consern but its okay that problem is way behind me now, that was 4 tests ago ( blue sash, crane patch, blue sash with tassels, green sash, two weeks ago) i dont even think the same way about my combat anymore, at that time i use to TRY and sparr like bruce lee i used to jump around and try and do all these quick attacks just like him when i sparrred but i did not have anything close to his skill, so it was just a matter of time before some1 beat me, luckely it was in the dojo were i can learn the errors of my ways and not own the streat were i might not comeback. PEACE

Zaine Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Getting beat is no big deal. There will alway be someone that can beat you. You should learn from your mistakes and come back stronger next time.

Canoe2fish Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 I intentially seek out this one student (of higher rank) to spar with. He is very aggressive and much larger than myself. Even though I usually get roughed up, I try to block and counter and learn from him the best I can. Its this type of guy I want to be able to hold my own against, or at least not be intimidated by. Last week I sprained my thumb because I sloppily blocked one of his kicks. At first I was angry feeling that he was being too aggressive towards a lower belt. Then I reasoned that I will get my share of bumps and bruises, so I was angry at myself for having a sloppy block, leaving myself open to injury in the 1st place. Now I realize that sometimes we have to learn the hard way, to see our mistakes and overcome them.

Very well done, and you always learn something. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
Rainbow_Warrior Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 Well , aften the ego hurts much more than being hited.As many guys said here...Sparring and losing is OK . When I was involved in boxing , I use to ´´fight´´ with a guy who was 2 heads taller and 100 pounds heavier , and with more technique than I. At the begining , he kicked my butt .Months later , he still with advantage...but I could hit him severals times , and had more a fair sparring.Sparring with people who is superior in combat , make you strong. Keep triying , and do I again , against that dude. You will get better . And you will notice it when you do sparring with a more ´´normal guy ´´. ´´ The evil may win a round , but not the fight ´´
true_practioner_of Kokoro Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 in defeat the best lesson can be learned. Let it cultivate your spirts. Don't be intimadated by the opponent it shows. Before any fight imagine there is no opponent but more like your shadow sparring yourself this helps to relax the mind and go into emptyness also don't think about your techniwues your going to do just do them
