The next book Finish It With Your Spirit is in progress.  This book will introduce the secondary training objective which will accelerate your training. The book will go into detail on the combative mindset and fighting spirit.

 

The martial arts are a facinating study.  I am dedicated to helping my students reach their martial art goals in a safe, step-by-step manner.  I have been instructing the martial arts since 1986 and continue to research new aspects of the martial arts.  This class is a real martial art class that focuses on self defense, not sport.  This class strives to develop martial art warriors.  Being a martial art warrior is a choice to live a life of challenging physical training and continuous improvement.  It is a lifestyle that follows principles of honor, self respect, courage, integrity, perseverance and respect for others.  A sense of self respect and confidence can be seen in the practitioner.   An excellent book on this topic is 'Living the Martial Way' by Forrest E. Morgon.

 

Respect is the most critical factor in the martial arts.  In all of my classes, proper respect is stressed at all times.  Respect must be shown to fellow students, instructors, equipment and, most important, to yourself.  Everyone is the class is expected to support each other.  We all have limitations and weakness to improve on and only by working together can we all succeed. True martial artists are very respectful yet have the ability to defend themselves when necessary.

 

Safety is a concern in the martial arts.  The pictures and video clips on this web site are done by trained martial artists.  Please do not try them without proper instruction.  The students on this web site have been trained in kyusho revivals and restorations.
