Look I did not insult and I stated "no offense intended", but I meant what I said. You have studied formally for no more that 2 yrears....where is the other 8 yrs of training ( in a gym or at home). I am not saying the you cannot fight, but the point was teaching. With two years of training 8 years ago YOU should not think you are qualified to teach and take people's money. If you are just forming a club or group, you don't pass yourself as a master and you don't ask for money that is different. Your original question sounded like "hey where can I get certified so I can teach and make money”. When you say go away to be certified it sounds like you mean you will travel to another state for a weekend seminar to get certified.

Could I have misinterpreted, possibly. But if you care about MAs as you say, you should be able to respect the point I am making and not be defensive. Someone that has studied for "10 yrs" but tneeds "refreshing" and does not know how/where to obtain certification in there respective style should be a red flag to anyone.
