So I realize we've got a lot of metahuman training that goes on around here, but I was thinking of putting together some non-metahuman training sessions for folks that don't have powers if anyone is interested. I've got advanced combat training under my belt, but I'd like to learn other things and I bet if we worked together we'd be able to get that accomplished.

So I'm pretty sure we can do this at Logan's gym. He's been pretty open about that sort of thing. My only concern with doing non-metahuman training is to minimize the chance of injuries. I think we can learn a lot from each other, and maybe we can do mixed training once we're stronger in order for everyone to get better and learn as a team?

Plus, it'll be good to work off this bloated post-food coma that I'm still in.

	I teach a class for people without powers to learn to fight against those with powers. It's been a specialty of mine for a while, since I've had to fight magical folk as a plain old soldier at home. There are lots of other classes open to folks without powers as well, all different fighting styles. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	That would be super useful! I'm not trying to cause a divide between the people with powers, and the people without. I mean, I want us all to be able to work and live together. But I like the idea of being able to contribute to defense if we all find ourselves in a bad situation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, I don't think offering a new class would cause a divide. There's room for everyone to teach their specialty, and even if someone else taught the same thing that you want to teach, they're not teaching it the way you would teach it. I know there are still open slots at the gym, and available rooms even when other classes are going on.

And I've forgotten to introduce myself. I'm Mal Oretsev.

	Hi Mal! I'm Patty Spivot. You make a lot of good points. I think that since you've been doing this for a while that maybe you want to be in charge of it? I don't want to step on toes if there is something organized already. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I really don't feel any need to be in charge of it. I'm sorry if I've given you the impression that I wanted to take over your project. But if you need help, I'd be happy to help you. It's good to meet you, Patty. (Reply to this) (Parent)
