well... last month!! i was sparrin with a yello belt who was about 2 years younger then me!! as im a black belt i was taking it easy...i came at him doing all these hook kicks and double jumping kick and all that more advance stuff!! when this 11 year old kid dropped to the floor and did i turning heel sweep!! i went down hard! suffering minor concution!! 2 weeks later when we had to do sparring the yellow belt picked me to fight him!!! this time i lost my control and roundhouse kick him to the face!! i wont that fight!! the morrel of this storry is:: never underestimate ur partner!!

Another moral would be to grow up before you hurt somebody.

Just a question...How is "doing all these hook kicks and double jumping kick and all that more advance stuff" taking it easy on him?

^^^^ because i was doing them slowly..making it obvious to him what i was doing!! but that was my mistake

listen, you got your sho-dan at age 12 right? so it's a pretty safe bet that you are at a mcdojo. this is further evidenced by the instructor (who is probably a teenager) allowing a beginner and advanced rank to contact spar.

while it's great you are training in something, we all eventually realize we ain't all dat. you should read more and do less posting. I'll take my own advice as well.

Ditto to all of the points above...

"this time i lost my control and roundhouse kick him to the face!! i wont that fight!! "

Looking at this post, you shouldn't be allowed to train in the martial arts...not until you mature-let alone wear a black belt (even though it likely means nothing where you train, after all everyone has one). You kicked someone in the face-someone younger and with less training than yourself. Congrats

Not a very good BB to lose control are you?

You should have complimented the kid for sweeping you, it obviously worked. Regardless of doing techniques slow how does that help him, it's easy to react to slow things, no matter how advanced they are. The kid is still learning like you, so work at his level, with basics and simple things, not super slow.

The little kid has an excuse to not be able to control his sweeps, he is still young and learning. You don't have any excuse to kick him like that. If you are going to do that make light to no contact, don't knock him out. Who wants to learn from someone who does that to em?

I hope you learned something.........

yes i learnt something as i said!!! it was a mistake that i just shared with you all!! people saying bb sholdnt bee making mistakes!! every one makes mistakes!!!

I noticed on your schools website it says Sensei Mark Shaw, thats incorrect, it should be Mark Shaw Sensei.
