Waka Martial Arts - Members pages

This month our friend from the past Dragolino wants to talk about his school problems. Dragolino told me that some children at school are acting badly and are being bullies with him because they know that he practices Martial arts, he asked me if he could use martial arts to deal with these children. Well the answer is no since we only practice martial arts for extreme self defence and these kind of problems should be discussed with the class teacher. When people are being bullies it might be because they themselves have some problems and thus they will need help. IF we should use martial arts to heart people we would become bullies ourselves.
