Re: To resist or not to resist

Hi Suren,

Quote:
Ron, you misinterpreted the situation. They don't try to teach you anything, but the way they practice is different.
Oh, I understand what you are saying...I was more responding to Mr. S's post. I like the kind of practice he suggests with specific people that I trust a lot...I wouldn't and don't train that way with everyone. For one I'm not good enough to be that on the ball, for two I don't think its always fair to your partner. I also think it gets carried too far sometimes. Competition can come out in sneaky little ways when there is no formal outlet for it. Heck, sometimes it comes out for me on these boards...
