When I used to teach and go to schools, we'd put the advanced students with the less advanced when learning new things so they both will learn... one will learn by teaching, the other will learn because they don't know...

I've been doing a little rolling near the end of class with other wb, but I have to be careful. I've been able to muscle my way through things a bit, but I don't want to hurt any one or get me hurt. I still need to learn a lot, just one the basics.

I also need to learn to take falls again. I was thrown 2-3 times last night from a basic leg sweep and landed fairly hard each time. I was fine, but much more and I'd have the wind knocked out of me.

I can teach you how to fall and do rolls... pretty easy once you get it...

better than hitting like a ton of bricks. My partner and the instructor both came over to see if I was OK. I was fine, but I guess it didn't look too graceful. That and I wasn't exhaling on impact.

For the whole time you are white belts? So white belts never roll with each other? So how long are you guys white belts? I'd think it'd get old getting your a$$ handed to you every night for a year! Getting a chance to roll with yet lower level white belts helps boost my confidence, I know that (although I have submitted blue belts twice...legitimately...and I'm still stunned!).

Sorry to revive an old thread but why make a new one?

I practice Chen taiji, mainly chansigong (spiral work) and ding shi (posture transitions) from that tradition. Once I'm employed here I'll probably hook up with the local Yiquan group and maybe do some Escrima.

I sparred with a guy a little while back and had a blast. Googled the guy's name and it turns out he's in jail now for assault. When we sparred he probably had about 6 knives on him and made a display of disarming himself first. He had great hard skills but little body method. Had to fix my specs once I got home.

I was big into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for a while a couple years ago.
