aznkarateboi Posted August 3, 2003 Posted August 3, 2003 if you can beat your instructor, you better quit
TJS Posted August 3, 2003 Posted August 3, 2003 My instructor always says it his goal for every one of his Student to be better than he is.. I sure dont have to worry about it and he reminds me every time we spar that im a long waya away
AndrewGreen Posted August 3, 2003 Posted August 3, 2003 if you can beat your instructor, you better quit Now would you say that holds for other sports as well? If you can beat your basketball coach quit the team. If your gymnastics coach can't do all the moves you can, leave. Seems a fairly ignorant view of things. How many top coaches play the game at the same level as there top athletes in any sport? Andrew Greenhttp://innovativema.ca - All the top martial arts news!
Icetuete Posted August 3, 2003 Posted August 3, 2003 i think what karateboy wanted to say is, that u should leave in case ur instructor cant teach u anything more.
AndrewGreen Posted August 3, 2003 Posted August 3, 2003 That is not what he said, nor is it the subject of the thread. Andrew Greenhttp://innovativema.ca - All the top martial arts news!
White_Tiger Posted August 3, 2003 Posted August 3, 2003 Dan Marino had a QB coach, but I guarantee he couldn't throw a football like Marino could. It is inevitable that a student will get the better of his Instructor in classroom sparring from time to time. Does this mean the student can't learn from the Instructor anymore?? Absolutely not! I believe you said in a NHB fight your Instructor would dominate you...sounds like you have plenty more to learn from him/her.
Black Dragon Posted August 4, 2003 Author Posted August 4, 2003 Thanks everybody that all made a lot of sense So recognize or be hospitalized Cuz literally on a scale from one to ten I'm 25.
Sorynn Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 What type of relationship do you have with your instructor? If you have mutual respect and open communication, you could always talk to him about it. Tell him that you would like to step it up a notch in your sparring. It would be interesting to see if his response is like the ones discussed earlier in this thread. My guess would be the increased intensity of sparring would help an instructor and a student learn more. Cheers!
Icetuete Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 sorynn summed it up quite good in my opinion p.s.: welcome to the forums @ sorynn. why dont u write an introduction?
