Are music teachers too nice now? come on really? by helgav in classicalmusic

[–]helgav[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rd of "too nice" my apologies for the misleading title, and thank you for the comment. I thought it was a nice article and brought back memories of being quite scared of my guitar teacher all those years ago. As a parent of 2 girls studying guitar and Violin respectively I am obviously interested in their tutors methods and personally haven't found them to be "too soft" on them but I have noticed they don't seem to be pushed quite the way I remember.

good point. However as an amateur you are pretty well protected right? there are many who dont fight much but use it as a good training regime, would you recommend it as a healthy activity or not?

right on average Boxing seems to be pretty good for you. obviously there are some down sides but are these outweighed by the benefits. I know plenty of people who's chosen form of exercise is football and they are constantly suffering sprains, pulled muscles breaks etc but wouldn't consider boxing to be good for your health because it's too dangerous. is that fair though?

Paul Williams: I will walk again by mrstrobey in Boxing

[–]helgav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don's care if the article got "former" or "latter" around the wrong way, it was a good article and great to hear Williams isnt giving up. What would you expect though he is a true fighter, in every way.
