Ground Shark Posted October 1, 2002 Author Share Posted October 1, 2002 Thx guys and congrats monkey girl on ur black belt. We dun use belts in our gym except to tie up our gi's. I like it better this way, think it makes the training more open instead of fixed on a certain syllabus, but i'm not sayin dat dun werk, this is juss the way i liek to best, i've done other arts and i dun really like the whole belt thing, its soooo last century,lol. With allt he McDojo's they've kinda lost their meaning. I hate seeing weak martial artists, but i'd say generally if they are weak it prolly the coach's(sensei, master etc) fault. The worst thing a MA teacher can be is soft on his/her students. lol, last night after like 1/2 of continous sparring my coach made us all do 20 takedowns without rest. I was dead, but i still sparred me pal a few times after anyhoo, he's bigger than me and has around as much exp in grappling as me, but i tapped him bout 3 times in under 5 min. lol, me happy:) i like winning, but then again i'm sure everyone does, it would be kinda odd not to i guess.
