When you've taken some time off from the gym, and return there are inevitably new guys you've never seen before.
These guys sometimes have a misunderstanding of who should be playing the role of the teacher, and who should be in the role of the student. They've been there for about a month or two, and now they feel they should have a right to teach newer guys the proper techniques which they themselves probably don't know yet.
How do you address these guys without coming across as a dick?
Do they need to be talked to on the side, do you need to expose them in sparring, or do you focus on yourself and your own training?
How do you address these guys who are too green to know their right from their left in a fight but for some reason think they are sensei material?
