In a word, no. Don’t even try to get anything back.

What you should do however is re-examine your motives for learning a martial art. Most of the arts are about self-discipline and respect for others, as well as training – not kicking a$s.

In your own words, I want to get my money back and go to a real school where I will learn how to beat anyone’s a$s who has the nerve to piss me off.

The school I train and teach at would politely ask someone with that type of attitude to go somewhere else. And, so would most reputable schools.

The best fight is the one you can avoid.

1) No.
2) Find a school where you will be taught not only how to fight, but when not to fight. Obviously this school taught you neither.

You should demand your money back. They sold you the illusion that you could handle yourself in any fight. They sold you a lie.

When you get your money back, look up instruction in Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi. As you get further advanced, you will want to learn Bagua and Xingyi. Tai Chi is the most powerful martial art. It uses sensitivity to listen to an opponent, softness and relaxation to outlast an opponent. A Tai Chi strike is like getting hit by a steel bar hidden in cotton.

Thank the small guy at the bar for showing you that you have been walking the wrong path and pointing the way down a new path for you.

You have already lost twice, 1st you hit someone (luck he don’t press charges) and 2nd you did not read your contract..No refunds.

Have you ever heard or have been told (I guess not) You win some, you lose some.

I have been a martial artist most of my life and at one time I knew this 2nd BB in korean karate and he got the DOG SNOT knocked out of him in a gas station parking lot, and he did not make the first move like you did. He was defending himself and lost, 1 on 1 and I help him back into his car and we drove off. I respected this guy and knew he was much better then me in the Dojang and torunaments but, I am a better street fighter NO RULES.

Go to another school and try a different art. For the past ten years I have been learning and teaching the art of Kenpo, it is an awesome self defense art. It is a street proven art that does work.

If someone makes you upset…walk away, don’t put yourself in that situation. Learning self defense is not about kicking someones butt, control is the name of the game.

Hahahah… Im sorry to laugh at your ploy, but likely your mma school will do that if you ask for your money back. Just because MMA is popular doesn’t mean it’s always effective. Being popular, makes it more suseptable to McDojo-dom. Same thing hapened to TaeKwonDo, which suffers from too many McDojos as well. You’d have been better off with a lesser known martial art, or at a smaller dojo, or even one taught at a YMCA! lol. Wing Chun, Isshinryu, Goju-ryu, Hung Gar, etc…
If you want to mix, then you should mix them on your own, and find a master of Judo, or Jujitsu. Rather than study with someone who already Mixed martial arts, not necessarily mastering either style, you should find masters of one style, study their style.

Roflmao! First of all your teacher didn’t specifically say you were one of the best street/bar/anywhere fighters in the country, which probably meant he expected you to fight inside your dojo only. Secondly, you picked a fight with a guy who you thought was an easy mark, which meant you underestimated your opponent and paid for it. Thirdly, 2 years in any martial arts is no guarantee that it’ll make you a good fighter, 2 years in Sing Sing maybe. As for your money back, unless you got a really good lawyer who can outrun an ambulance, forget about it, just charge it to experience and train to be a Ninja next time : P

That sounds like a frustrating situation. But Martial Arts is not about fighting it is intended to protect yourself. Or to protect others. Picking a fight is not the heart of Martial Arts.
I hope the situation teaches you humility and respect for all people. The more you know about Martial arts the more you should be secure in yourself. This is what this question is about. . .You are insecure with yourself and are taking it out on your school, the little guy etc.
Keep learning. Two years, twenty years . . time never matters.
I can learn from my son about the joy of life and he is only four months old.
Hang in there. . .

thats nothing,

Last weekend I adopted a giant panda at the ASPCA, and it turned out to be minime with a bunch of fur glued onto it.

They said because I was drunk and midgets are more endangered than pandas I had to turn him over to the bronx zoo.

Hey, go back to the bar and find that little guy. Then bring HIM to the school and have them give you your money back or he will beat them up. Then split the money they give you and go back to the bar for drinks.

I want to get my money back and go to a real school where I will learn how to beat anyone’s a$s who has the nerve to piss me off

The nerve to piss you off? You have the wrong frame of mind and you should not be learning how to fight at all. But I suppose you spent 2 years learning how not to fight….so problem solved. lol
