PM Damian Mavis. He used to own and operate a TKD school in Thailand; he's fought in amateur muaythai too.

PS - where the hell have you been? lol

I would not recommend it.

Why's that alcohol? You'll have to forgive me for posting so late and forgetting if you and I had some sort of flame fest to force you to criticise my school. Please remind me.

My opinion was formed by reading your post on this site.

Even though it may feel that way to you, I have not yet critiqued your school.

I'm sure it will as "logical" and "enlightening" as he other posts.

Right, and what posts would that be? What could I have said that would have prompted you to tell people not to go to my school when you have never been there or know anything about it? Not yet critiqued? The only way you could critique the school is if you came here and at least watched classes (or better yet get on the floor and try them), otherwise you should keep biased opinions to yourself. I assume you are just criticising my school because it is ITF and traditional whereas you come from a WTF sport school? Right? We bleed and sweat buckets in my school, we train to fight on the street, each class is at least a new set of bruises. I will openly admit you could probably kick most of my students butts at sport style sparring if we followed your rules. But we do not do that kind of training. I feel better knowing that in a fight my students have a better chance of surviving than a sport style student, I'm not really too concerned if they won't win a sport tournament any time soon. Is that why you criticise? I don't have anything against sport, it's just not what we are about and just because we are different than you (although we ARE the original style of TKD) and don't train to score points doesn't mean there is anything wrong with my school. You should take back your biased and uninformed opinion that people should NOT go to my school.

Nevermind... I checked and I see that we DID have at least one flamefest heh. So you advise people to not go to my school because we argued about TKD styles before, fair enough.

LOL, considering who you had it with, might be an endorsement, actually...

Sorry damian didnt see your reply, times wont work for me that you train now unfortunately as im at a different thai boxing gym. not to worry, thanks for the invite, i may pop down at some point though, your gym looks good!

also you teach street orientated is that all based on TKD or are you bringing in other elements out of interest.
