If I have to actually 'see' my teacher 'do someone up' before I believe in them, then I will automatically pass that idea on to my own students and have to 'prove' myself to them too. What a merry-go-round! A person who is Champion is the best. Everyone else is not the real deal. AND when this Champion loses his next fight all his students will leave him and he'll be a penniless beggar again!
C'mon gents, lets be honest.
I knew my teacher could take care of himself by 'feeling' him throughout my training, seeing him move in demonstrations and watching his reactions to the 'newer' students who also think and talk like you t!
Isn't it funny how all this has started.
With people questioning their 'roots' and looking for the 'staple diet' of Martial Arts, the only functional way to functionalize an already functional system is to simply train harder with good guidance...
