Now I know in the end this is and should be entirely up to me. But I want some input on the situation. For those that remember I had problems with my past instructor. I stopped training under him in February. For whatever reason he is a good martial artist, he and I clashed due to my experience in the FMA's amongst other disagreements. Now I have nothing against TKD at all actually I enjoy the art but in some instances I feel the FMA's has a different and sometimes better solution to things. I tended to run this amuck with him and it caused problems. Anyway he called me a few minutes ago and asked me to return to the Dojang because he needs help teaching he has started a new job and needs help. And he said he knew he could always rely on me and that I am a good martial artist. My decision is not made up as far as returning and am not 100% sure about returning. I know I enjoyed teaching TKD and enjoy taking TKD for the love of it and for the workout. I myself am still wraped up rather seriously in the FMA and as far as me teaching TKD and FMA I can sort the 2 and teach wich ever and teach them well. My question at hand is, Should I return and help him out? or should I not teach due to my loyalty to the FMA and mixing them together with TKD may bring hardship once again? I am also feeling thier maybe a vibe there between the 2 of us after the last time and I'm not for sure I can handle having that coming in between teaching again. I get close to the students and it took awhile for them to stop asking about me last time and calling me and so forth. In fact Im not sure I can teach TKD now and not throw a pinch or a dab of FMA in the teachings weather its hubud drills, or some JKD concepts and so forth... This instructor wants this to be a pure traditionally based art TKD school wich it has been for yrs and I want to spread and teach other arts as I do on a private location. Once again like I said I will have to make this decision myself regardless of the comments but I am just looking for that extra innitiative and guidance from some of you who have maybe ever been in a similar exprience before or whatever your comments are I respect each and every one. This is by no means a rude letter or comments to anyone with a serious outlook on TKD. By no means is this to affend anyone Im just in a "what should I do" bind. Should I do it for the benifit of helping a good man in need? or feed my selfish desires to teach out of love of the Martial arts? thanks Cory ------------------------------ From: "John Bennett" Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 22:22:04 -0500 Subject: the_dojang: Machado Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Seminar - Kansas City, Missouri !

But prior to the Qing dynasty, a warrior who wish to hold high official position in the Chinese Imperial Army has to excell in 18 compulsory weapons during the Imperial Military Examination. If the Sip P'pal Gi was extracted form Muye Tonji Tubo, then it would most probably based on the compulsory 18 weapons as in Chinese Military. Sincerely S. H.
