Balik keje tadi aku rush ke SMT jumpa cikgu Nazri utk hantar banner & pamplet yg aku janji. Giler..aku terlupa yg minggu ni intake utk form 4 rupernyer. Nasib baik banner td spt siap (antar kul 12.oo tghari.. kul 3pm nk amik..hu..hu..).
Aku sebenarnyer dh penat giler td. Dah la merempit dlm hujan lebat. tp bila mengenangkan si Adjrun (Presiden kelab) tu dok call remind psl banner tu x sampai hati lak aku. So aku suruh org umah aku dok umah mak dia jap ..dlm 1.5jam aku balik balik hu..hu..
Aku sampai SMT tepat jam 9 . Borak2 ngan cikgu Nazri dan dia bgth tahun ni pengambilan mcm slow sikit. Intake offer dkt 400 org tp yg masuk x sampai 200 org. Dan dgr citer SMT2 lain pun sama. Sampai ader yg dpt 9 org jer satu kelas. Ntah ler ..parents dah x minat nk hantar anak2 diaorang ke sekolah teknik kot. Klau nk cakap sebab gawat, berapa sen la sgt belanja ke SMT tu. Aku yg cumer dpt BKP RM50 sebulan pun buleh survive (time tu la 1987-88).
Dan dgr citer sekolah teknik ni akan kembali ke asal iaitu pure teknikal school ..x lg campur vakasional ngan teknik. Frankly dr dulu aku x leh terima sekolah teknik ni di gabungkan ngan sekolah vokasional...hilang privilege sekolah teknik. Zaman aku dulu cumer ader 7 buah sekolah teknik (lagi sikit dr sekolah sains & MRSM) so ke pervilege an (ader ke perkataan ni?..hu..hu..) nyer terasa.
Dan impact dr response yg kurang ni maknanyer pengambilan akan dibuka kpd pelajar2 second intake iaitu pelajar2 yg x dpt A dlm Math pun akan boleh masuk. Impact dia? Kelas2 tu dah jadi cam sekolah biasa la..so x guna la kerajaan abiskan berjuta utk majukan sekolah2 teknik ni.
Ehmmm...tgk jam dah kul 9.15pm ...aku kena sampai sebelum kul 10..hu..hu.
9.50pm ..aku dah sampai kt laman umah mak mertua aku...tp x leh pecah rekod yg ari tu..27min dr sekolah teknik ke umah aku ..hu..hu..

pandangan choy dihormati.
Saya dah ikuti byk cerita dari saudara dan terlintas mungkin saudara rasa "terkejut" dgn fenomena luka dan injury dan seharusnya tidak meletakkan itu sebagai faktor penghalang.
Ye betul, kecederaan berlaku tapi bukan semuanya cedera. Ada faktor lain, iaitu kawalan diri, kaedah bersukan, teknik yg salah, cuai yg menpengaruhinya. Boleh jadi anda melihat tkd ini semacam ganas sedangkan yg cedera itu hanyala 2-3 org dalam kelas.
Kalau kite nak mengubah hidup kite, tak usah sekrg bergantung pada sesuatu. Contohnya, yg lembik nak jadi kuat, yg takut nak jadi berani. Tak perlu harapkan tkd dan salah tkd kalau kite tak berani. Tkd satu wadah. Anda sendiri menilai. Kalau tkd itu mencederakan, sukan lain apa kurangnya. Malah, tkd ada disiplin tak seperti sukan lain.
Saya dah byk join sukan lasak. Betul tkd nampak pukul sana sini, tapi saya jarang cedera. Main bola lagi teruk. Ligamen koyak. Hoki, kena hentak kayu. Badminton dan tenis, bahu seliuh. Tkd, tak setahap itu (kecuali W).
Malah tanyala penari professional, takda cedera? Kalau anda maukan tkd to remove pain dan instil professionalism...tang mana. Anda mau jadikan tkd kelas teater buat lawak? Malah anda juga pernah jadi presiden dan punyai peluang untuk membuat perubahan. Sudahkah gitu?
Jgnla anda melihat tkd dari perspektif hiburan yg tidak mencederakan dan kalau tidak sanggup terima sedikit sbyk kesakitan, tak perlu la buat apa-apa dan pengamal tkd hanyala ibarat pelakon wayang kulit yg hanya pandai berkata, tetapi berkulitkan kambing kering.
Choy, hope u dont misunderstood what've been storied by sir Eizam. Ur point of view vs Eizam (including me) totally different in view of different TKD background & history. I didn't say that ur comment are not true but when some one from strong TKD background read that it can be misinterprated and lead to the counter explain and normally will end up with another (more) misinterpretation. So the condition becomes worsen. I need not to comment ur opinion but just one paragraph that I think I really need to. No Pain No Gain ...no TKD if no pain.. thats one thing for sure but of course la jgn sama kan pain tu mcm kena torture ngan Israel hu..hu. So bg sesaper yg x nk sakit langsung pegi la main congkak ker..batu seremban ker...errr not for u la my friend.
your argument is valid and as "your" instructor, i have accepted it.
I wonder why this was not shared with me openly when each time i came there, i would surely ask u all what's the problem and most of u remain silent.
Instructor job is not to diagnose everything in everyone's mind and heart and then act. We can pre-empt but cannot know exactly what's is in your thought.
FOr instructor is simple, those u come to us, we will teach them and those who has let us know their problems, we are here to listen. If permit, we will assist to the best of our knowledge.
If student of afraid of injury, of course we re-strategize our training. We will try to avoid that but somehow it happens. At least, the injury will be kept in minimum pace and not prolong and u know, GTF style is so strict bout self control unlike other Martial Art.
Still, instructor cannot hide if students with even black belt so "kurang tenaga" and the people watching will surely laugh. What kind of seniors are u trying to groom?
My point is simple, we try to balance out between the need to be strong and the need to avoid injury. That's what we call it as self control. That makes u all different with others. Kalau naik kereta laju tak reti control, accident gak. Kalau naik kereta lembap takut kena langgar, kena accident juga.
so, we try to be moderate and hope this will clear your doubt.
Continue to argue, i like it. The more u argue, the merrier dins blog. hihihi
Salam Sejahtera pd semua,
Saya cukup tertarik dengan pandangan2 sdr semua tentang isu kesakitan dlm konteks latihan TKD (walaupun rasa pelik jg camne artikel tentang sek teknik boleh jadi satu debat ttg isu k’sakitan pulak) ..tapi very interesting la. Sir Eizam dengan pendekatan Practical dan Pragmatic beliau; Sir Din dengan semangat Cekal dan Hardcore nya; dan Sdr Choy dengan pendirian Compassionate dan Prihatin beliau...kesemuanya pendapat yg bernas2 belaka yg menampakkan ciri-ciri serta personality anda selaku pengamal dan guru TKD b’pengalaman yg cukup mendalam.
Saya takkan sentuh ttg isu professionalism atau sportsmanship, prinsip atau disiplin dlm tkd, boikot atau Israel. Saya mohon izin kalian utk mengajukan pandangan sy yg Moderate pula perihal isu kesakitan dlm konteks latihan TKD...sekadar, for the sake of another point of view amongst industry professionals la katakan.
Pain is an interesting concept. Ketika membaca komen2 sdr sy teringat satu quotation menarik yg pernah saya t’baca dahulu....izin sy kongsikan bersama anda....”Pain is Inevitable. Suffering is Optional” – Zen Wisdom.
Kalaulah tak silap sy lah, maksudnya adalah bhw kesakitan itu merupakan sesuatu yg tidak dapat di elakkan walaupun dlm apa situasi, keadaan, aktiviti ataupun scenario. I agree with Sir Eizam, no matter what u do, there will be pain. Beza nya hanya tahap atau degree of pain i.e. buat stretching sikit pun aduhh.. sakit (lebih2 lagi pd usia perut boroi ni kan...hehehe), buat warm up.. sakit, training.. sakit, sparring.. sakit, demo.. sakit, tournament.. sakit. Malah nak bayar yuran latihan hujung bulan pun sakit. I am sure as experienced instructors u pernah dengar rungutan ibubapa yg mengatakan betapa seksanya nak kejutkan anak bangun pagi datang training...itu pun sakit tu. And as Sir Eizam ceritakan...bayar kad kredit memang sakit.
Sy ada seorang Pembantu Jurulatih. Beliau ni kira fanatic la dlm pembelajaran seni pertahankan diri. Dah pernah jadi juara. Dah pernah wakil Negara. Tak cukup TKD, belajar Muay Thai...kat Thailand pulak tu. So pain shld be nothing to him. Sap, sap sui. Train TKD 20 tahun, no problem...pegi main badminton satu game, patah kaki, kat lutut. Sampai major operation. Kena masukkan besi. Sekarang tiap kali datang kelas (dah x training dah..tolong ngajar aje) kena pakai knee guard/brace. Every now and then kena pegi physio. Yg penting semangat beliau masih kuat. So u see, sakit tu tak pilih sukan. Mcm Sir Eizam kata, baik TKD ke, badminton ke, bedminton ke, ragbi ke, swimming ke, menjahit ke, even main congkak pun boleh sakit, mana lah tau kalau terkena buah t’pelanting.
There is no end to pain. No matter hw careful you are or hw hard u try. It is everywhere. So the key thing is to accept it as a norm in TKD...lumrah...and as the 2nd part of the quotation says...learn to deal with it. Don’t cower fr it.
Accept that pain is good. Pls ah..bukan S&M. Pain is humbling. Sesuatu yg menundukkan dan merendahkan diri. Kesakitan itu mengingatkan kita tentang kemanusiaan kita...betapa lemahnya kita...betapa fragile nya kita... betapa jahilnya kita...in some cases, betapa bukan superhuman atau terrer nya kita ni. Secara positifnya, kesakitan itu patut di ambil sebagai satu pengajaran yg membina. Satu ukuran keatas kekurangan atau kelemahan yang ada pada diri atau keadaan kita yg harus kita baiki, atasi...dan elak dari berlaku lagi. Cam kata Cik Din kita, No pain no gain. Pokok nya, daya tahan seseorang terhadap kesakitan itu. Pain teaches you to become a stronger and better person. It is part and parcel of character building.
In TKD, doesn’t matter what level of training you are at, white ke or black ke, there will be pain. Sepanjang pengembaraan sy dlm dunia TKD, sy rasa tak ade satu tulang, satu otot ataupun satu organ pun dlm tubuh sy yg belum pernah rasa kesakitan yg perit. Dari rambut ke hidung ke telinga ke gigi ke lidah ke tengkuk ke bahu ke rusuk ke perut ke pinggang ke...u name it lah, i dah kena dah. Ala, u semua pun sama jugak, kan? Sy rasa bila kita dah tua nanti (mcm la masih muda..) tangan kaki semua mesti mengeletar. Boleh la kita buka kelab ex TKD teachers..kalau umur panjang..utk semua member yg sama-sama mengeletar.
Anyway, bukan sengaja cari sakit tapi selalunya akibat recklessness, kedegilan, kesilapan, kebodohan dan keangkuhan diri. But i learnt from it. In life, there is always a lesson to be learnt...samada nak ambik ikhtibar ataupun tidak aje. Sy rasa la..i hv become a better person bec of it. Itu rasa sy la.:)
Krn sakit itu lah skrg sy lebih matang, lebih kawal diri, lebih tenang, lebih focus, lebih objektif, lebih tabah, lebih berpenggalaman, lebih accurate dan tepat, lebih rendah diri, lebih berfikiran terbuka, lebih flexible, lebih berhati-hati, lebih peka dan prihatin, dan kadang2 rasa mcm lebih powerful sikit pun ada.
Pengajaran yg sy perolehi tu telah menjadikan sy seorg guru TKD yg lebih bagus, lebih menyeluruh....tu rasa sy la. Skrg ni kita tahu macam mane nak ajar student kita teknik dan cara betul utk elak dari kesakitan dan kecederaan, dan mcm mane nak rawat kesakitan itu. To teach hw to inflict pain, you must also knw hw to treat pain.
But just as a point of discussion, selalunya bila kita lihat dlm sesuatu pertandingan, bukan nya peserta yg lebih kuat, ganas, agresif atau mampu mencederakan lawan dlm gelanggang yg akan berjaya tetapi biasanya perserta yg lebih tenang, rendah diri, bijak dan kawal diri yg akan pulang dengan pingat. It is a fact, tetapi kenapa guru-guru dan pelatih masih tak faham-faham lagi kenyataan ini sy pun tak tau.
To a degree, sy juga setuju dengan pendapat Sdr Choy. You must tamper TKD training with some Compassion and Caution. Sejauh mane boleh, elakkan dari berlakunya kecederaan dan kesakitan. Safety is of the utmost concern, lebih-lebih lagi bila mengajar kanak-kanak. But as teachers our job is to push our students to their limit, and beyond if possible, until they themselves achieve and discover their true potential. My students and their parents expect this off me. Don’t be over protective. Let them experience pain bec pain can b a good teacher. Tunjuk, ajar dan terangkan makna kesakitan itu supaya mereka sedar bec...there is no better teacher than experience.
Alamak! T’panjang la lagi. Cam ni baik buat blog sendiri kan? Sorry ya..tak sedar dah meleret. Ah...waktu lunch pun dah abis dah. So, take care and stay well. Salam.
fantastic view points from sirs din, khaldun and mr choy.
one more things, that why we in GTF really practices self control and of course choy, u have also listened to some of other's martial artist's viewpoint and their views were because their brand of art does not encourage self control.
In simple term, they also practice hard or full contact and i was also from W and even my fren yg green belt kena belasah "tergolek tonggeng" oleh black belt 2nd, who was his instructor. What a shame huh. Yg kuat lanyak yg lemah, pulak tu guru sendiri.
When i join I and later G, i never seen such incident. What i learnt from Mr Khaldun (yg byk kena lanyak) was to be cool and steady and be humble. Lanyak org does not make this people being respected but to perform at the highest sportmanship will earn more respect.
Trust me. Cruel champion or leader will be seen as popular but without respect and these people maybe dihormati di dalam gelanggang tetapi di luar, org tak pandang pun. Namun, humble people or leader, irrespective dia tu menang ke kalah, pi jelajah mana pun org tabik spring.
So, choy. It's good that u have found justification in trying to under TKD more, but TKD or other martial art is not just understanding but requires greater sacrifice in enduring all challenges during training.
Understand to punch is worthless if u cant even defend yourself. That mean, your understanding, concept and theory must be clearly demonstrated with your performance, especially when u are in real danger to protect yourself against unwelcome enemies.
Mr Khaldum, wish u could create your own blog so that further discussion can be made.
