I personally enjoy randori. I like the spontaniety. It is what it is. I thinks its different for each person. I never mistake it to be anything other than what it is, somewhat artifical. IMHO, never mistake training for sparring/randori, randori for fighting, or fighting for combat. While we can make randori approach closer to the realism outside the dojo, it can never be the realism that is outside the dojo. I appreciate the santcuary of a place to train in the way of peace.

Until again,

Lynn
