That's a good video, lots of valid points, I agree with most of it. However, I do think that there has to be a balance between controlled technique training and working against a live and resisting oponent. If you have people just pad up and beat the crap out of each other from day 1, its going to reinforce and build bad habits. On the other hand if your talking about self defense, or even sport training, you HAVE to train alive, with a resisting oponent, or else your just cheating yourself and you won't be able to make it work in a real life situation.
