Teaching is a completely separate skill.  There are plenty of people who know less than I do that can teach better than I can.

As I’ve been saying forever and a day…

Not all black belts can teach.

Adding some clarifications to the original scenario/hypothetical situation:

MA guy trained in country Y, where XYZ art originated while he lived there. MA guy’s teacher is the Chief of the main school which has branches in other countries except MA guy’s. MA guy is the only person who practices XYZ art in his country. 

MA guy trained daily for over 10 years before returning to his country. He remains a student  of his teacher with whom he trains on yearly trips.

MA guy’s teacher gave him permission to teach and they have discussed the idea of MA guy eventually running a branch school.

MA guy practises almost everyday, usually at a local community centre. Being there so often, sometimes people stop to watch. The curious child and the grandmother are just the only ones so far who’ve done more than watch.

MA guy is interested in teaching and allowed by his teacher to do it, under the condition that he doesn’t teach minors(under 18). This is also his teacher’s rule because he considers XYZ art too risky and dangerous for ´children’ to ´play with’.

Interesting varied scenario/hypothetical situations. His loyalty to his teacher is respectable. 

If the MA guy wants to teach, then teach!!

Why does anyone need to get their teachers permission to teach?? I have never ever insisted that any of my students must get my permission to teach. 

I also don’t believe in the territorial rights of any MA governing body and/or establishment MA schools that demand that said new MA school must check with the aforementioned places before a new shingle in hung at a store front. That was a big deal way back when; I’ve experienced that myself.

No MA guy or gal should have to get permission to teach and/or where to teach. To me, that’s a form of bullying.
