Update:
There is a difference in different techniques by age level. Example: kids finish a combo with the attacker in an arm lock whereas the adults continue to a choke.

The new owner is more fight oriented and competing in a small, full-contact kick-boxing event today. He's also showing the "why we do it", better sparring advice, and drilling students on basics instead of "running the script" every time even though students are sloppy.

Daughter is more interested in the classes, and that's the good part

Cheers.
