[Sportsandrec] clueless coaches

Hi Mike,

It is too bad your mom never took you to a judo dojo because you could have
done judo.  

I figure that I just don't tell them in advance I am blind.  I show up and
just do it and I assume I will be accepted.  I found a wonderful Tai Chi
instructor this way but after six months they moved so I had to find another
instructor.  The new one was so full of herself she really didn't have time
for anyone else.  I think if she had been my first expereicne I would have
been discouraged but having had such a good teacher just showed me how bad
the second one was.

Judo is a fantastic activity.  In all the years we went to different events
I was never excluded or shown favoritism or any of my students.
