What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
To ask a lot of questions about your teacher where he's coming from if he ever fought or compete where was he thought and if he discipline,wha and where did he learn because there's a lot of fake trainer out there.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Be straightforward and ask lots of questions about who your hiring because there’s a lot of training that never fought or been around this sports and they are teaching bad techniques and they are only for the money.
