Practical but unprofessional and thugish

The instructors knew the techniques they taught though some of them admitted they don't practice the basics as often as they should. My only problems are nobody was really understanding of how to work around the current physical or mental ailments of the students and none of the instructors adapted at all to the different ways the students learned. Plus one instructor was rather careless. They often verbalized reasons why I have to show respect instead of letting me know with actions and it really just came across as disrespectful as respect is both given and earned. I know a lot of people like the school but I cannot train at a place that gives no headway into my values, beliefs, and individualization.

There is no other martial arts club/school like it in the area, period. "Learn to fight, NOT to fight"; that is the Sanano Martial Arts System philosophy. You will learn to defend yourself and improve yourself physically and mentally. You will learn to have the strength and skill to avoid situations that lead to conflicts rather than giving in to the easy road of violent confrontation. Affiliated with: The World Sikaran Brotherhood of the Philippines; The Mataw Guro Association; Sanano Martial Arts System.
Always vet your instructors and check their background, especially when it comes to learning about violence.
