Episode Synopsis

Traditional approaches to education relied on a master and apprentice model. Modern education has largely abandoned this approach. In this episode we argue that it, and many other elements of a traditional education, given the right context, still have an important place today.
Schools could learn a thing or two from how pro wrestlers are trained. We interview Tyson Dux, owner and head trainer at the Tyson Dux Wrestling Factory in London Ontario Canada. Tyson is a 23 year veteran of the wrestling world and has a reputation as one of the greatest because of how he conducts himself in and out of the ring.
We discuss how a traditional old school approach to teaching serves upholding lineage, reputation and belonging. Tyson helps us see the sense of responsibility and accountability a master has to push their students to meet the demands that mastering a craft requires.
