YAYA!! Half an hour later & a few "polite" words exchanged with the computer in my quest to register myself on here simply so I can comment on the whole "Andrew versus fighter factory Hamilton saga"... Firstly, I don't wrestle or grapple or anything like that. I train with Fighter Factory for fitness so I can keep up with my 8 kids LOL. I've seen what goes on at Fighter factory as my 2 teenage sons attended a few BJJ classes, they had no training ever in any kind of martial arts previously!! At all times they were safe! they came home with a few bumps & moans, but this was what is expected in contact sport... As learners they were coached properly, effectively & SAFELY!! & the only reason they stopped BJJ was because the hot, sweaty bodies grossed them out LMAO! But they still continue to attend the Fighter Factory fitness classes & we stay to watch for a bit after our workout! I have seen the u-tube thread that Andrew has posted & read all the comments regarding his thoughts, & quite frankly for someone that claims to have 5 years of martial arts training, teaches martial arts at the local university & is a blue belt I think Andrew you need to take a big cup of harden the F#%K up, everyone involved in any type of contact sports has injuries! You chose to continue with the sport, you put your body under that stress... if you can't handle it!! Then don't do it!! Also Andrew did you not stop to think that before slandering a good gym & teacher internationally, that maybe the better wiser man would have approached the teacher during or after class? Not only have your actions screamed dishonorable, childish & thoughtless but you have put some very good people in a difficult position that they have no reason to be in!! Lose the ego!!
heads up to everyone at fighter factory... Peace light & happiness everyone Arohanui Kylie
