Just curious, How many people use their sparring time in class to practice their "fundamentals" as opposed to the "fancy stuff"? In my class, there is one fellow who always fights "realistically", i.e. he comes on in and wallops me like I was hitting on his 13 year old daughter during her cheerleading practice, then brings me down and ties my left foot to my right hand and stuffs me in his duffel bag. Not very pretty, but he gets the job done. Then there is one who likes to spin, sweep, leap, roll, pose, dive, poke pressure points, tickle my foot after catching it, tug on my pony tail...I think you get the picture...."fancy stuff". Not really "street effective", but he has a good time. Is there a split like this in your school, or is your school all in one "type" ? (oh no, not that word!) Does the instructor mix things up/influence that? If you are an instructor, do you push students twoards one "type" of sparring? Of course, this leaves out the group of competitive sparring people... I didn't mean to do that. So for you guys, do you ALWAYS "ring fight" or do you mix it up and get down and dirty sometimes with grappling and such? Or drop the rules and play around with butterfly kicks and fancy-schmancy stuff?

Train museum, train ride, 70 bucks spent on food. Burger king for lunch (I bought one pair of those cool sunglasses) :) and Chinese for supper. "Groan" By the way, anyone know why they serve so much? What you get sometimes is enough to feed two or three ppl. I missed class today too. I needed to give my wrist a rest anyway. Donna - -- NO!! My cycle doesn't leak!
