I agree, I met WSL many times, a very quiet humble guy. Once while I walked silently with him alone to his ride after a dinner of raucous drinking in UK Chinatown with my old sifu , he stopped and bear hugged me, and said “train hard !”. What we should all be doing in between posting here. 😃

TRAIN HARD , keep an open mind to other ideas, stay humble, dont be afraid to question your ‘sifu’ about his ideas and why he does them ‘his’ way. Try things out and see if they work against guys who dont do VT, test, test, test. Find your mistakes with partners drilling and sparring dont look for mistakes in others to inflate your ego.

Dont be afraid to tell the ‘emperor’ he isnt wearing any clothes…😉

[QUOTE=rachard1583;1089153]I always belive that certain techniques will feel more natural to someone than others will. This is again due to differences in body type, age, size, etc.

I trained my VT at a open gym with ‘Systema’ training going on, very cool stuff. One guy was Spetnaz, showing escapes from duct taped wrists. He would use his belt to defend against knife attacks like a bar between two hands holding the belt tight, then gain rear positions to choke out students with the belt …while they stood up, they would fall unconscious in seconds…he would catch them as they fell.

It’s nice to see some humility return to this forum 🙂

Thanks for an excellent post ntc!

Here’s a video I want to share with everyone that I highly recommend to watch. If this doesn’t make all of us humble and stop fighting, I don’t know what will 🙂
