Situation,advice please. - 04/08/06 10:11 PM
At our goju school we have integrated groundfighting,have for the last few years since my old instructor retired. Randy,my instructor,has a good wrestling and jujitsu background. He has been showing me and teaching groundfighting,I like it alot,however,our retired instructor is totally against it. In his words,"I thought I told yall about that wrestling sh1t! Better cut it out. " Well,this presents a dilema and we are more or less hiding it from him. I have great respect for the man ,as a matter of fact I love him dearly,if it weren't for him I wouldn't be where I am.He's the best fighter I have ever known! Things that he could do would astonish you. He was more dedicated and trained harder than anyone I have ever known. But don't I have a right to train at whatever range I feel necesaary? Is he just being close minded or am I being disrespectful? I'm confunkled...
