There is NO danger and no beating up of the body if a person learns the BASICS of falling to begin with. >> Amen... but I might change the NO danger to "limited controlled danger" - ---if a person is struggling...the instructor must have the discipline to keep them on the basic drills till they are ready to move ahead. ------------------------------ From: MissIllona@aol.com Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2000 19:40:09 EDT Subject: the_dojang: Re: Free Workshops In a message dated 10/6/00 2:46:55 PM Pacific Daylight Time, the_dojang-owner@hpwsrt.cup.hp.com writes: << There is more to their needs than those which are curriculum based, and it is those needs to which we need to respond. >> Yes, sometimes we need to hold extra workshops on weekends for those that need more work on their kicks, punches, forms, combo's or whatever ... but if they don't attend these free workshops and still complain that their kids are not getting the attention they need ... I point out the workshop they didn't attend. All workshops are offered and spotlighted for each month before they are done. They know enough in advance that they can plan for it ... so my feeling on this is if it was that important to them ... they would be there. Other parents do.

But when we compete, we win. People have to understand that there is more to the martial arts than sparring and that sparring drills do enhance their sparring skills. >> I agree ... sparring drills are very important ... without them the sparring in our school would be very lacking. We have upped our actual sparring times, tho, because I really felt we weren't doing it enough ... but that means sparring day could be actual sparring or drills ... I make the decision on this when I watch them spar ... if I feel they are lacking in some area ... OK, it is drill time next time.

I'm not sure what you mean when you state "prostituted techniques". Perhaps I missed something in an earlier post, perhaps even a positive comment......... :) The arts must adapt to the people learning them, that way everyone can benefit.
