A students interview... :)

Jackson Interview

Hello Sifu,
This is Jackson "-------", your student at Mitchell College. I thoroughly appreciate that you agreed to answer a few questions for my research paper, as it's a kind gesture and I hold you in high regard. As I mentioned before, I will need to be able to use these answers in my paper and cite you as the source. If that's a problem, I completely understand. Otherwise, it would be ideal if you could be as detailed as possible in your answers. I realize this may take much time and effort on your part, and it is greatly appreciated. Even if you have to send me one answer at a time, it would greatly aid my work. Thanks again!

Q1: Many MMA enthusiasts, including Joe Rogan, believe that traditional martial arts do not incorporate sparring and therefore do not make room for adaptation or evolution (i.e. impractical moves are not weeded out, adjustments for practicality are not made) in the art. Do you find this to be the case in the disciplines you know? Why or why not?  

Onassis:  You're welcome!   Well it really depends on the school and the teacher doesn't it?...
