I grew up in the "old school" days of the '70s when martial arts teachers didn't think twice about kicking the shit out of students. I had one Korean teacher who used to walk up to me while I was standing in line and kick me in the gut hard. His attitude was it "toughend " you up an it was part of the training. He dislocated my knee twice in one class... couldn't walk on it normal for months. Back then, you pretty much got hurt every class.

The good thing about it is you stopped caring about little sh-t, and pretty soon you realized it was all little sh-t... even broken bones weren't a big deal.

The only thing I can liken it to was watching a kid get his nose broken... and he got up off the floor and thanked the guy who broke his nose. Why? The kid told the guy he taught him getting his nose broken wasn't a big deal - and now he wouldn't be afraid of fights anymore.

Getting your ass stomped is a good thing. It teaches you it isn't a big deal.

You are talking of a striking art where as Darkman is speaking of grappling.

Taking an ass-kicking in either sucks, but getting your bell rung is worse than getting choked out.

[b fold the truth]

I trained and competed from 8-21 years of age. Loved it. Traveled all over the US...

I've had quite a few broken bones. Some from hitting them...some from them hitting me.

Purple from Rorion is like mid-level black from anywhere else.


I've known Rorion since the '80s.

This must mean you live in LA.
