Taekwondo

[john joe]

They hold the thai pads up, I kick the pad then bang their fist bang into there face up and then they stand there dazed and ask me to not kick so hard

yeah, is this in the evening beginners/recreational class though? Coz none of them can hold pads for toffee. If you're doing this in advanced or fighters class, i suggest you switch gyms as it seems none of them can hold pads for toffee either
