'its true this thread is women's issues - I just get annoyed when many of the "women's issues" are caused by "men's issues" ::
Good point ,love em as we do ,you are right ,but somewhere along the line the issues thing gets reversed and they get issues
And, when I teach I look at my students as individuals -
"I teach everybody the same way" just doesn't do it for me.
Yes I agree,to teach the same way to everyone is wrong ,I think i understood alot of the posts as meaning not to do females an injustice in there training and go as hard as they can handle ,of course this also applys to the men.... to tell someone they did the move correct or not attack well enough so as they end up with no defence ,is going to turn real bad on them if they ever need to do for real ,or even iof they go as a visitor to another dojo !!
Now
here's a women's issue - boy, I hate when I have cramps and am taking class - I feel like I'm sawed off from the hips down.
:
Ah yes ,the dreaded cramps ,,I start taking Ibuprofen the day before ,as this is how this drug works on cramps to wait until you get just makes you sick, might help a bit but not so good..
If I am teaching that night might find we do alot of stretching as this helps me ....
also I wear a black gi most of the time for training ,I would not feel confident in white at this time ..
hey just had a thought all the nice men who have been following these threads will have just ran away ..come back be brave
!!!!!!!!!!!!
