It is sad that a school becomes more a studio then a place to advance oneself.. I wish not to competive talk about other schools, but here is our resume if you will...
A youth that got bullied for 6 years, learning that joining us, helped him make the bullies wish he was their friend....
A displaced child who had only the mother, go from out of control , into a helper in the house and home, without asking...
A team of junior martial artists was play fighting and picked on my student, my student was taken down only to hang his head and blame himself, but I remined him his real skill was not in play...as they found out after a points tournament setup by them with me the teacher the judge, which all schools minus mine got more the 4 points in a 7 point match for each... even the final 7 point student from the other school, wanted me to give my student a point "for just trying" which I told him , we don't do for sport... my student with head hanged low, was upset and blamed himself, I told him again, we do it for real not points, ...which he found out.. after the Schools of the 4 - 7 pointers made fun of him and then attacked him, to prove he knew nothing, but that's not what they found when he took them all down, in real self defense.... and came back to me to say as I said ' we do it for real ", now they no longer pick on him.... as I told him the art can offer...
A future student picked on a longer known one and said my student was bad, and i was a not so skilled teacher, i cound have took offense, but instead , i visited them and then they became my student after a few lessons, which over time lead to them becoming a 2nd place champion in a tournament the first time ever going, doing an art of sword form that hasn't been seen since... or before..., but its more after his military stint.. he visits and thanks me for the man he become and the lessons he learned... no greater reward for a teacher...
A student had a teacher of jeet/wing pass from a college, and was looking for a new teacher, they found me, studied and in 3 months went back and the class voted him the new teacher... with my school's arts,
I have many stories like this, and all these are the reason many teachers should want to be welcoming to offer the advancing of such spiritual and gifted minded worthy ones...
Contact the school and let's see your story unfold...
