Subject: Re: Sun and Moon Dojo Author: Neal Weaver [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 12:27:14 02/24/08 Sun In reply to: Todd Warren 's message, "Sun and Moon Dojo" on 13:53:50 02/19/08 Tue I asked regarding fighters because I wanted to know, there are guys out there putting guys in the ring that I dont know personally, but have heard of their teams. I like to file em away so that when I am getting my guy's fights I will remember the name of the team/gym. As for being nice, I'm much more for direct than nice. The donation thing was odd to me, and I saw if off the link provided, and I said it was odd. So to the point honesty is out of vouge now? Its not like I ridiculed the guy or said anything I wouldnt say in person (this is my actual name, not a screen name) regarding a place for MMA training. Just a point of fact question. As for support systems.....I can see your point, but I have a different requirement than some maybe to be called a MMA training facility. I am not going to say no one should ever train there, but for me or any of my guys if they find themselves out of town I also like to know the gyms/schools that are like - minded to what I expect. There you have it. I dont think from his answers his goals (or the gyms) are the same as mine. So there would be no need for me to train there or for any of my guys to do so if they were around Greensboro. It wont hurt their attendance or business one bit. That's why I asked him the fight question. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> [> Subject: Re: Sun and Moon Dojo Author: Todd Warren [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:27:33 02/27/08 Wed Thanks Jes for your response; that's more or less where I'm coming from. I also agree with the referee post. I'm not an MMA competitor, I study for self-defense and a love of the arts. That said, what we study falls under what is currently being called MMA. Jujitsu, boxing, grappling (including BJJ), muay thai, kenpo are an integral part of what we do. My instructor's lineage includes greats such as Dr. Moses Powell, Professor Wally Jay and Ed Parker. The innovations of these men along with folks like the Gracies are a huge part of what is today being called MMA. I posted here to let folks know about Sun and Moon Dojo. Jes is right that we are not promising to make anyone a UFC champ. On the other hand, if you want to train hard with a knowledgeable instructor, Sun and Moon has a lot to offer. Whether your goals our compatible with our own, Neal, I don't know. As for your statement that there is "no point" in coming to check us out, I imagine that has more to do with your affiliation with Team ROC and the fact that they are restarting another training center in Greensboro than anything we might disagree about.
