I’ve just discovered you through a page I ‘like’ on Facebook. I don’t believe in coincidence, and there is a deeper meaning for this recent discovery, not just the validation I feel after reading excerpts from your book and the posts and comments. I don’t feel so alone on this journey as I had, not that it makes it any easier, but knowing there are others of like mind and character gives me hope….

I am reminded we are chosen to be a warrior, if and when you choose to be: You are the most excellent. God has blessed you forever. Gird your sword (word) upon your side and in your heart, O mighty one; clothe yourself with splendor and majesty. (values, honor, integrity and justice). In your majesty ride forth victoriously in behalf of Truth, Humility and Righteousness.

Very well said! Marc MacYoung does have a bias toward traditional martial arts and it seems he and his partner have a bias against the warrior lifestyle and including character training into training. His partner even went as far as to write an article slamming my philosophy on the true warrior being a man of honor, character, and integrity. According to them, a warrior is nothing more than someone who fights in a war, which is total BS.

Yeah, the Penn and Teller piece had some truths, but most things with some hidden agenda have slithers of truth in them; if they didn’t, no one would take any of it seriously.

Just saw the Penn and Teller thing. Sadly, there are truths there…..of course, you can’t expect these clowns to realize that not all cops are dedicated, soliers brave and fearless, or comedians funny. The potential may be there, but you can’t teach spirit. The real empahasis of the show seemed to bash the ‘black belt’ system, with a few crackpots thrown in. Sad that nobody had the sense to point out that a black belt is merely the high school diploma of the MA world.

Marc Young seems very down on traditional arts, and probably had some bad experiences. I would wonder at motives before I looked at training, however. My original instructor was a California Highway Patrolman. He said that he knew how to fight before he bothered with Tang Soo Do, he wanted a discipline that would be a life habit, something he could do well into retirement. He did not include anything other than the traditional aspects, but directed those of us that wanted more to others instructors. We never labored under the assumption that our art was all we needed. I got pummeled by boxers, thrown and pinned by wrestlers, and even got mangled by some good kali guys. But my TSD was my core. Perhaps others do not have that pholosophy.

I enjoyed their little rant about the dangers of MA training…100% chance of injury? You bet. I can’t imagine that being any sort of surprise, except to those lacking courage to train. So easy to find nothing but negative qualities in something you know nothing about.

Wow. It is hard to defend the ‘storefront’ MA system. It is also hard to take most MMA seriously. I have yet to meet one of the local boys that understand that biting, eye gouging, and other nasty things are allowed if they attempt to demonstrate their cool moves for real. Same as the traditionalist that freaks when you hit them, I suppose. Again,take what you have and go from there. Even Funakoshi modified his art- said so in his book. He said it had to grow to meet the needs of the people, and that doesn’t seem to be happening lately.
