Ask a Blackbelt: “What do you think about training at other gyms?”
“What do you think about training at other gyms?”
Answered by Mik Milman
The only thing good about the culture of gyms being rivals is that they make good kung fu movies.
Its 2015, are we really not past that rivalry? I think that MMA debunked the efficacy of separating ourselves into styles and dogmas, closed off to all other thoughts and ideas. Rivalry can be a healthy thing. I train hardest with some of my closest friends. We don’t hold anything back. we are trying to kill each other but in the end of the day its all love and there's never any animosity in it. Why not extend that to the rest of our community? We can all benefit from sharing our thoughts, ideas, perspective, and experiences.
