mArTiAl_GiRl Posted May 8, 2003 Author Posted May 8, 2003 But I can't do both, because the Sifu (kung-fu instructor) says, that if I wanna study wu-chu, then I have to leave karate, he said I can't do two things at the same time. He won't let me.. Kill is love
fireka Posted May 8, 2003 Posted May 8, 2003 martial girl, litsen real closely okay? IGNORE HIM its likely not a good school anyway, i here you talking on the pm's and you LOVE karate, theres no sence in changing, so tell that guy his right, you cant do two things at once, ill be studing karate thank you very much. he is obviously narrowminded and has some how mangaed to such out your parents brains, give them a throulgh washing, and then put them back in. dont let the same thing happen to you. "i could dance like that!.......if i felt like it...." -Master Betty
mArTiAl_GiRl Posted May 8, 2003 Author Posted May 8, 2003 It has not happened to me yet, thank God. :biggrin: But it happened to my brother! Now his a kung-fu fan and he left karate and everything!!! All was gonig fine for him, he won gold every competition! He has all his friends at the training!!!! And the instructor is now really sad that my brother left Karate. ... My instructor said: ..He was almost like a family with us.. I feel so sorry for my instructor, and when I heard, that my brother HATES karate now, then I just started to cry, because I miss being with him at the competitons and training, like sister and brother. I HATE PARENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAA!!! Kill is love
karate_woman Posted May 8, 2003 Posted May 8, 2003 Well, wu-shu isn't the end of his competition days if he doesn't want it to be; I've seen lots of wu-shu practioners kick butt in tournaments I like watching their forms when they fly through the air with their swords. Very cool The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. -Lao-Tse
fireka Posted May 8, 2003 Posted May 8, 2003 karatewoman! shes upset because hse wants him to train WITH her! "i could dance like that!.......if i felt like it...." -Master Betty
karate_woman Posted May 8, 2003 Posted May 8, 2003 karatewoman! shes upset because hse wants him to train WITH her! Oh I know, it just isn't the end of the world, that's all. Now that he's changed to kungfu/wushu or whatever it is he's doing, if they can just manage to be civil to each other when talking about martial arts instead of trying to prove which style is better all the time maybe they can learn from each other? I think that Chinese arts are complimentary to japanese/okinawan arts(too bad the sifu disagrees). My Senseis studied and taught T'ai Chi in addition to jujitsu and karate, as did their Senseis before them. It works well with Goju, anyway.

mArTiAl_GiRl Posted May 10, 2003 Author Posted May 10, 2003 Yesterday, I met my instructor and I talked with her. Then later, she talked with my mother. And when we came home, then I started to cry, because everybody at the training asked me: Will you leace us too? We haven't seen you for a long time! Please don't leave us too! Your brother was like a betrayer, he left us and didn't even say goodbye, we called him our little brother! I just felt so sorry for them and my instructor so I started to cry at home. When my mother saw it, she felt sorry for everything and I told her, my brother, father what they said at the training and then my mother said: ok, we must stop this. We can't blame karate because of all and tell that it's bad, we've got to stop this, look what we've done with our daughter now! So, now all is ok, and I showed my parents that I know what I love, and when I love karate, then I'll never leave it! Kill is love
karate_woman Posted May 10, 2003 Posted May 10, 2003 Well, perhaps things have finally come to a head. Hopefully they do as your Mother suggests. It is too bad your club is being hard on you too (by asking all these questions and laying on a guilt trip). Perhaps your instructor can talk to the group? The more they remind you of your brother's departure, the less pleasant your training will be, and less productive too. There is only one person whose actions you can control, and that is you - you haven't gone anywhere, and if they want it to stay that way they should just be quiet about it - training with your guts in a knot and on the verge of tears is no good for anyone. The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. -Lao-Tse
KaratekaAikidoist Posted May 10, 2003 Posted May 10, 2003 Well said I tuned in a little late. I FEEL SO BAD FOR YOU MARTIAL GIRL!!!!!
AngelSlider Posted May 11, 2003 Posted May 11, 2003 Martial girl hang in there. You know it seems like your mom is starting to understand you a bit better. Be strong and remember once your past this youll only be stronger. And the others atyour school have to understand your brothers choice. Ultimately it is his just like you chose not to go.. Cheer up and train hard. You can still train with your brother at home sharing knowledge from both styles.
