Why my Hubby can't watch martial arts movies...
Having watched Chuck for 2 seasons now, I can see quite clearly why my Hubby can't watch martial arts action scenes. They make me cringe, and I have no comprehension of Hubby's skill.
Real life self defence is nothing like what goes on in the movies and nothing like I learned in Taekwondo when I passed my black belt. The real thing is very sudden, small, decisive and scary.
There's no fighting as such in what Hubby teaches. The attacker begins to move and suddenly its over. I guess this doesn't look so great on film.

Master/apprentice
My husband occasionally sends out e-mails encouraging students to study harder, explore the tai chi more extensively, read the website and train between lessons. Typically, no one replies.
Hubby is always puzzled why few students really engage with the art and why nobody replies to his e-mails. The answer here is actually quite simple. He's right, and so there is nothing to reply to.
We have succeeded in finding a superior tai chi instructor. Sadly, we are not ourselves superior tai chi students.
