These guys were already respected [masters] over two decades ago, but have not wasted the past 20 years growing stale by repeating the same training regimins over and over. They both put on white belts and stepped on to the mats to learn Machado Jiu Jitsu in the 90's, and have persevered to earn their black belts. They train with a variety of other martial artists of *ALL* backgrounds, and you'll never hear them utter words like "best style", etc....
Props to Dan and Chuck.
I don't think Wing Chun is so limited that I can't do it when I wrestle, box, kickbox, or fight by MMA rules, nor am I so limited a student that I can't improve by training in each of those forums. -Andrew S
A good instructor encourages his students to question things, think for themselves and determine their own solutions to problems. They give advice, rather than acting as a vehicle for the transmission of dogma.
