Comment Re:So many practice doing it wrong (Score 1) 192
When telling my martial arts students to try to practice correctly I often say:
If you practice doing something a lot, then you become good at doing it.
If you practice doing the wrong thing a lot, then you become good at doing the wrong thing.
That's where tuition is so important. A good teacher will guide students into correct technique, and identify and teach away bad habits as soon as possible.
Another thing I tell my students is:
I can teach you skills, but only you can practice them into art/mastery.
