Finally, Sifu Jordan is prior military with two separate enlistments in the United States Marine Corps, he absolutely does have a military approach to training and instructing. If you are word sensitive, in other words, if words may hurt your feelings, or if a loud voice is threatening to you or makes you cringe, this may not be the program for you. Sifu Jordan will push you during training to bring out the most in you, he is interested in your succeeding in the program but more importantly, he is interested that the Ving Tsun you are learning, will save your life if it should ever be needed. Because of this, he will be demanding and he will push you to your limits so that you may realize your full potential and that you gain personal knowledge and an inner connection of that thing we call Will Power to prevail in the face of danger. For in the street, in reality, there are no second chances. You cannot stay hidden in your safe space forever. In saying that, you will experience pain which means you will be sore, usually from day one. Every muscle in your body is going to feel it, including your knuckles since you will be hitting targets of interest. Expect this and accept the fact that in order to receive the amount of training in the amount of time it is offered in, you will be required to put forth your best effort and there; Will Be Pain involved as it cannot be helped. So during your time training with Sifu Jordan, apply your Will Power and stay the course and all will be as it should. Remember, it's preferable to go through the pain and sweat in class than the pain and blood in the street and bear in mind, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going."
*Note: If anything that was said in the above made you feel fear, insecure, nervous or jittery and if any verbiage was found to be offensive: Seriously consider your decision in regards to training in this program.
