Mac Attack
I'm neat.
MMA is an official sport. That is a fact that cannot be denied. It has been speculated that one day MMA could be the most popular sport in the world. So the question is why isn't it taught in Physical Education classes?
I know that it can potentially lead to fights and physical altercations between students, however in a moderated enclosure shouldn't it be taught to the youth? If all of the other sports can be taught and educated within the school is it unfair that MMA is not taught. I know there are pros and cons on both sides however I really think I would put it up to the MMA brains as to wheter or not MMA should be taught in class, and do you think we will be seeing this in the future.
Personally speaking I feel MMA should be taught in the school system because of its up and coming popularity. I don't necessarily think it should be taught in the elementary system because I think the younger kids may not handle it responsibly however for sure it should be taught. I think that if Physical Education's goal is to spead awareness amongst the students then why not have MMA being included. MMA already has far more overall popularity then sports like Table Tennis and Badminton. Also a lot of kids need help facing their problems when it comes to bullying so would a little self defense be the worst thing to teach young kids? That is my spin on it, however I know there are several more educated people in the realm of MMA on here so I would like your opinion.
