LOL. There was some guy at my old gym who would try to do the flying spinny kicks when we sparred (they called the class MMA but it was 95% no gi submission grappling). I always laughed at him and told him he should just do a Thai kick and miss instead because it wouldn't look as stupid.
I'm definitely all about training alive but luckily when I did train with ninjas we did some all out brawling. Except they didn't know a whole ton and I'd find myself calling friends mid-session saying things like, "I'm at this ninja class and none of us can figure out how to get out of rear naked choke in rear mount, help!" and hastily scrawling things down.
