[QUOTE="MartialArtsGuy, post: 1946145, member: 712864"] Actually, since he has a very specific want, he will have no problem finding a school that suits him. He will weed out anything that's too sporty. Tell him to watch some classes and see how often they go over forms and what are called One Step sparring exercises. These are VERY basic, but a good example of what One Step Sparring is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cm49yFR1DMQ One guy I used to train with, one of those uber-seasoned brown belts, believed that you should not get any more complicated than what you see in these one steps. He would probably have a fit if he saw any kicks above the belt. In a way, I can see that because when you are surprised, you only have a split second to react. A simple react would be nice to have programmed into your subconscious. [/QUOTE]
