Weapons training for martial arts classes for children?

Most of the masters of martial arts are a strict rule of not allowing children to train with weapons. You have many reasons why they are in politics. It is possible that all these teachers make a big mistake?

Martial arts instructor to throw any excuse to deny this type of practice martial arts classes by the young and young adults. Excuses range from risk, liability, lack of seriousness in trainingwith dangerous goods.

While all of these reasons are valid, are willing to take that risk. Go ahead and see which side of the fence you stand out, preventing the formation of arms with a minor or a training program organized by the arms

I know that the greatest weapon of training hand-eye coordination. Almost nothing better when they are managed properly. As a language teacher, I know that the benefits of a second language to young children. You win the fluidnative. The same can be practiced by weapons. If they start early, they develop a softness in the management, will appear natural.

Speaking of skills development!

In dealing with children with weapons training

This is also a wonderful opportunity to teach children how to treat weapons with care and not to joke with him ... also and above all, the practice of arms.

Note: For students with weapons is a very safe practiceIdea. Be sure to treat with respect to the practice of arms, before you get to real weapons. Check also for a minimum level of competence.

Because children with weapons teaches them a better sense of the distance. Since I work in a sector other than the body in contact with your hand, you develop a keener awareness of the field.

Also be able to shoot with a gun to defend your body and creates confidence. Children and adolescents need to develop a healthy senseidentity.

Finally, education is also a weapon is a rite of passage. Her younger students must study for a minimum period of time to reach a certain level of difficulty with their empty hand techniques, and show a mature attitude, emotional control, and an ethical standard of teachers, first, l ' access to weapons.

If you work with weapons of classes for younger students, must take some precautions:

Know your insurance. Test covered.
Make sure there is a certain point alleviates liability in contracts "sign of parents'
Give instructions for the use of protective equipment and the attitude of all weapons, even those who practice the student, before ever touching a gun
Train in a controlled environment with established practices. This is not the time to make free or open sparring. The focus of the controls.
Know the students. Divide the students into groups ... only those who receive the weapons of confidence> Education.

Classes of weapons for young adults to work if properly treated. And you will not believe what they are for their hand-eye coordination is. Helps them improve their techniques with bare hands.

Be safe.

Simple Steps for Creating Your Own Martial Arts Workout

Looking for a new workout to lose those few extra pounds? The latest craze is working out through martial arts. Not only is it a high energy exercise program that keeps you constantly moving and burning calories but you'll also learn how to defend yourself in the process as well.

One of the secrets to the power behind martial arts is knowing how to perform the basic workout training. It's in knowing how to properly train your muscles to give you that boost in power within a short range of motion. Here are some tips for finding and beginning a martial arts workout:


  • The first thing you want to do is to set your goals. Are you doing this to lose weight, get stronger, become more flexible or just to increase your overall stamina? There are plenty of reasons why to start a martial arts workout. You need to find yours.


  • Once you've decided on the style of martial arts you will be working out with, start off with some of the most basic moves. You want to see if you can properly do them first. Let's say you decided that you chose karate. See if you can do straight punches, mid blocks and front kicks. Try out slapping blocks, chain punches and snap kicks if you went with kung fu. You can try as many styles as you want. The trick is to have fun with the one you choose.


  • It's time to get your workout gear on and get your body into a basic fighting stance. The trick is to remain bouncy. This means you should always be on the balls of your feet with your legs kept a distance apart allowing you to bounce your body on your legs. Remember your guard should be up at all times and keep all your muscles tight. The strength in a martial arts workout is in its constant motion. Stay moving!


  • Now you'll start performing the basic motions of the style. Once you've made a striking motion return to the first stance and do it again. You'll keep doing these motions until you begin to get tired and that's when you switch sides. For example, if you were striking with your left fist of foot, you would switch to your right. You'll continues to do this routine with both sides for an extended period of time. The basic length of one of these workouts is two sets for each side of your body as you alternate between the two.


  • Once you've become comfortable with the basic motion of these moves, slowly advance your routine in difficulty. A good workout relies heavily on the amount of effort you put into it and the greater the difficulty the greater your workout progress. Try to consistently add new movies into your workout so that it never becomes easy or boring.

Martial Arts Summer Camp - A Success Story for Children

Do you ever get the feeling that your child is losing ground in the battle for a decent education? Do you dread the high cost of summer camp? Do you feel that your child is learning courtesy and respect in school or summer camp?

None of us can afford to let the years go by and "hope for the best." Each child must go through a re-programming process every September to regain his or her previous academic level. The child who did great in June may have to settle and adjust to school all over again in the Fall.

The common problems for children, when going back to school, are attention span, motivation, and goal setting skills. We have many choices to enhance the success rates of our children, but if money is a factor, our choices seem to be limited, and every parent wants the best for his or her child.

Therefore, let's look at our options. You could do it all yourself, and some parents choose this path. You would need to tutor your child, reinforce respect, supervise each activity, and gently guide him or her toward constructive friendships. If you have a career, you might as well put it on hold for the summer.

You could place your child in an affordable summer camp and pray he or she will survive the season. You could also find a good skills camp for a minimum of $300 per week. Between summer camp, back to school, gasoline, and Christmas, we'll all be working a second job.

However, martial arts summer camps are very affordable in comparison to most summer camps. All of them are run with maximum supervision and kids are eager to belong to a structured society. Children know what is expected of them; it is just a matter of reinforcing the structure and making it fun for kids.

Does it sound like a military school? In some ways it is - but each child who enters a martial arts summer camp, will be a model student in an academic school setting, during the next school year.

How is this possible? The foundation of martial arts is courtesy and respect. This is how a martial arts school maintains structure and integrity. All of the extra life skills such as: goal setting, anger management, stress management, motivation, self defense, and having a positive attitude, are "icing on the cake."

Every child who enters a martial arts summer camp learns the taste of success, the feeling of achievement - and no child is left behind. In turn, this will prepare him or her for the next school year.

MMA Training Work Outs - What You Need to Know to Kick Butt in the Ring!

MMA training workouts are now being offered in gyms as this new sport has invaded almost all fighting rings around the world. The birth of this quite controversial sport has opened the eyes of the many that human fighting capacity and survival skills do evolve and improve over time.

There are already a lot of fighting sports that have earned a strong reputation, including different martial arts, boxing and wrestling and each discipline has its own rules and norms to follow.

However, creative people got together and formed a new sport named MMA or mixed martial arts. The name itself gives us an idea of what this activity is. It is a combination of all fighting skills and techniques ever to be created since time has started.

Initially, MMA involved only a few rules and protective gears for the reason of searching the best martial arts that can sustain real, unarmed combat. But, producers and creators started to get critics of its brutality. To gain acceptance from the crowd, rules and protective measures are now being implemented.

MMA is not just any ordinary game or hobby. It requires skill, speed and training to pursue.

MMA training workouts are only among the many preparations for the game. Since you have to train to become a fighter, not only do you need to stay fit and built, you have to train to learn how to fight and survive an actual combat.

MMA training workouts are focused on enhancing your innate skills; which means that before deciding to train for MMA, you should have at least exposed yourself to any martial arts. From there, you would now improve your strengths and eliminate your weaknesses.

Martial Arts Technique - Why The Pull-Down Is Too Risky

There is a martial arts technique from Wing Chun involves pulling down the opponent's protecting guard (fists raised) just a bit before coming in. The is one detail of this technique that is oh so important. Try the move without this limitation, and it will be too risky.

First, let's see how you might get into and use this martial arts technique:

1. You notice your opponent guarding high with the fists, like a boxer.

2. You come in for the clinch, but just lay your hands on the outside of your opponent's forearms above the wrists.

3. Your hands pull his down ever-so-slightly -- one hand checks over the top of your opponent's arms, while your other hand hits.

It's important to only pull down slightly, and not more than an inch or two. Do you know why? This is the focus of this article.

Make it A Short Martial Arts Technique

So, why pull down just an inch or two? Why not REALLY move your opponent's arms out of the way? Why shouldn't you pull down with a major amount of force?

Heavy force could cause the opponent's body to roll making it easy to evade the hit. Also, this puts your opponent in the perfect position to come back with a hit to the kidneys. On the flip side, if "you" felt the heavy force of your opponent's pull-down move on you could definitely be to your advantage.

Another point -- if the hands in the front are pulled too far down, then you are inviting a strike with the head. In fact, pulling the hands down, invites a head response from both parties. Let's add the elements of resistance and redirection of force to this technique discussion. If you pull down your opponent's arms with a lot of force, your opponent can either resist or go with the pull and 'slip it.'

With a resister, you have a struggle of force against force. Not efficient for either of you. Not desirable. And if your opponent allows the force of the martial arts technique to redirect his (or her) energy, then your opponent could slip an arm around and up into a solid punch from the outside. With this type of technique you are in very close -- close enough for an elbow strike from either party...

What Are Hard Style and Soft Style Martial Arts?

Sometimes one would see references to 'hard' style and 'soft' style martial arts. To many non-martial artists, these terms may be puzzling. In North America, these terms are used to classify martial art styles into two main categories. Japanese/Okinawan karate and Korean tae kwon do are generally referred to as hard styles. Movements in both karate and tae kwon do are often linear with their forms (traditional sequence of set moves) performed with crisp movements. Chinese kung fu styles are usually referred to as soft styles. The circular motions of kung fu forms give them a more visually graceful or softer appearance especially when many of the movements flow from one to another. Even Korean kuk sool won which is sometimes referred to as 'Korean kung fu', is often classified as a soft style since its movements are also more flowing than the stop and go of tae kwon do or karate. This is not to say that hard styles such as karate or tae kwon do are more powerful martial arts than kung fu and other soft styles. The term 'soft' is a bit misleading because the power from circular kung fu moves are often hidden. Circular moves can generate just as much power as linear ones.

The terms hard style and soft style came as a result of the evolution of North American martial arts competitions, particularly in forms divisions. For many years, open karate tournaments which allowed all martial arts styles, had competitors from different martial arts backgrounds compete in the same forms divisions. All equivalent level competitors, whether they used a Japanese/Okinawan karate kata, a Korean tae kwon do pattern or a Chinese kung fu form, competed together in the same divisions. This provided a nice martial arts showcase for spectators especially at the bigger tournaments. However, some competitors and judges considered divisions with combined styles to be too complicated. For example, judges who were familiar with only Japanese or Korean styles had a difficult time scoring competitors performing Chinese kung fu forms. Sometimes competitors from different martial art styles felt that judges were being biased against them. Judging a hard style form against a soft style form was often like trying to compare apples to oranges.

To help resolve these issues, many of the larger martial arts tournaments expanded to have separate divisions for hard and soft styles. This was a way to equalize things and add some more fairness to all competitors. The largest tournaments went another step ahead and further separated Japanese karate stylists from Korean tae kwon do stylists by putting them into different divisions too. This still left many kempo stylists up in the air because their particular forms have both hard and soft style elements since their movements are both linear as well as circular. Some promoters of large tournaments decided to accommodate kempo stylists by adding in separate forms divisions just for their style too. Of course many smaller local tournaments have not been able to offer separate hard and soft style divisions for martial arts forms competitors mainly because of financial budget restrictions. The terms hard style and soft style are used only in North America and parts of Europe since these are the only regions of the world that have open martial arts competitions. Martial arts competitions in other parts of the world such as Asia are generally restricted to certain specific styles only.

Womens Martial Arts - Your Perfect Strategy Against Big Attackers

If you are a woman and want to improve your martial arts, then I have a great tip for you. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if this doesn't catch on and help improve all women's martial arts. It really is a great strategy against big attackers.

Instead of discussing your strategy for fighting, let's talk about your strategy for ... learning. We can deal with specific tactics in another article, sometime soon.

For now, let's improve your women's martial arts learning strategy. Specifically, whom you model.

Biggest Error for Women in a Mixed Martial Arts Class

By mixed, I mean co-ed -- males and females in the class -- not a class of the style of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA).

Are you in such a class?

If so, do you do your best to imitate what everyone else, especially your seniors, are doing?

It's customary to watch those more advanced and to try to copy their movements, tactics, and strategies.

I think women should find a better model. They spend a lot of time mastering the same techniques that big, heavy males are practicing.

The Perfect Strategy for Women Martial Artists

So, women shouldn't imitate bruisers -- deducing that everything being equal, the more muscular will overpower using ... power techniques.

Don't try to overpower someone with power. Makes sense, right?

Instead, find a way to finesse your big competitors. And rather than looking to other women, I have a great suggestion....

Observe, study, analyze and imitate ... older martial artists! Look for martial arts who have been practitioners for a long time. FInd men and women who have lost some of their strength, stamina, and maybe some speed because of age.

The reason you are observing them is because, believe it or not, they still have what it takes. I see martial artists in their 60s and 70s who still beat martial artists in their athletic prime.

They aren't succeeding by overpowering their younger opponents.

They have learned efficiency, economy of motion, better timing, and other finesses.

As a woman, your best strategy is to learn the strategy of your golden-age martial artists.

Are you looking for a specific technique that is efficient, short, and to the point. Give your elbow strike a makeover. And learn a great martial-arts counter to those trying to elbow strike you.

Deadly Martial Arts and Marketing Madness

The martial arts industry is highly competitive, and to stay ahead you need an image that you can market to the public. Misrepresentations and outrageous claims have done a lot of damage to the martial arts industry, though, and Count Dante is a primary example.

In 1964, there were only 13 martial arts schools in Chicago, and two of them were owned by local boy John Keehan. Keehan trained as a boxer; after graduating from high school he joined the Marine Corps Reserves and later the Army, where he learned hand-to-hand combat and jujitsu techniques. After completing his service he trained with Robert Trias, who had opened the first karate school in the United States. After earning his black belt Keehan began marketing martial arts to everyone, not just soldiers and police officers.

In order to attract students Keehan put on tournaments, and trained anyone who wanted to learn practical martial arts meant for street fights. His students became members of his Black Dragon Fighting Society, and trained in either karate or judo. In 1967, Keehan changed his name to Count Juan Raphael Dante and began promoting himself in comic book ads, declaring himself the "Deadliest Man Alive." Keehan told friends that his parents fled Spain during the Spanish Civil War and changed the family name; in reality, though, his family was Irish. Keehan had always been a dedicated martial artist, but he soon began to believe he was the comic book hero.

Controversy would follow Keehan for the remainder of his martial arts career as he made more outrageous claims. He said he had become a martial arts master by killing other masters in "death matches," and reportedly challenged Muhammad Ali to a bout, a challenge the boxer's camp ignored. He had kept a lion as a pet, and claimed to be a hairdresser for Playboy magazine. Some sources even say he trained gang members, and had ties to organized crime. During Chicago's "dojo wars," Keehan was charged with attempted arson when he tried to blow up a competitor's dojo. Later he and some of his students attacked Black Cobra Hall dojo, and during the bloody fight Keehan's best friend would be killed. By the time of his in death in 1975 from a bleeding ulcer, the infamous Count Dante was a burned-out and broken man.

Keehan's story is a tragic one not just because he died so young, but because he had the potential to be a good martial artist. The problem was he began believing his own hype, and what started out as an over the top marketing campaign turned into a destructive lifestyle. He was among the first to teach combat martial arts and practical self defense techniques in the United States outside of the armed forces, but he made things overly complicated. He claimed he created many moves when he only renamed traditional moves. A martial arts instructor doesn't have to be serene and calm all the time, and there is nothing wrong with making money, but an instructor should never sacrifice integrity or misrepresent martial arts. In the end, Count Dante damaged the reputation of lethal martial arts training [http://www.TopSecretTraining.com] and turned the title of martial arts instructor into a joke, simply because he wanted to feed his ego.




Captain Chris Pizzo has dedicated his life to not only spreading the "truth" about martial arts and self defense, but also to teaching the very same simplistic, and easy to learn answer he discovered after nearly being stabbed to death during a road rage attack.

Martial Arts Forms - Is There a Style That is Deadlier Than the Other?

Which Martial Arts style is the best? There are many Martial Arts forms and styles to choose from, and there can even be different forms within a style to choose from. So which one is the best to train in?

Well, the one(s) you train in all depend on WHY you're training in them. Are you just training for exercise purposes or self defense purposes, or both? Are you looking for a style that gives you an advantage from a standing position, grappling, or ground fighting? So the martial arts forms that are "best" depend on your training purposes.

There are many that are looking for the deadliest style of martial arts. All martial arts forms can be deadly if used correctly, but some are better suited for exercise and form while others are better suited for the street. Of all the styles that I have trained in, if I had to pick one that I would consider to be the "deadliest" style of martial arts, one that offers the ultimate fighting training system that is extremely effective on the street, it would have to be Pressure Point Fighting!

Pressure Point Fighting is one of the best because it deals with knowing exactly where to strike in different situations and with different sizes and strengths of opponents.

Pressure Point fighting gives you the ultimate fighting training as it is a system that teaches you exactly where to attack in different situations and with different attackers. You can learn how to literally "leap" into your attacker and take him out of commission. Then, you can attack any number of pressure points - and the fight is over! Some of these pressure points just cause pain, internal pain and many can even cause death.

There are many martial arts forms to train in, and they are all excellent. The "best" one to train in depends on your PURPOSE for training. If you are looking for the most street effective form, one that just might be considered one of the deadliest style of martial arts and offers an ultimate fighting training system that ends a fight fast, look into Pressure Point Fighting.

Martial Arts Differences - Look and Study For An Edge!

My job is to help people improve in the martial arts. I want folks to be able to defend themselves more effectively.

It's a curious phenomenon that whenever I point out a shortcoming or problem with a technique or tactic from a particular style, people complain.

The majority of martial artists don't like anyone saying that their style is less than perfect.

Well, if you are one of "those" people, then this article is especially for you.

No Martial Arts Style is Perfect

As mentioned above, a lot of practitioners don't want to hear anything bad about their system or style. It's almost like telling them that their
particular religion is flawed.

But it shouldn't be that way, at all.

When someone points out some flaws of JKD, I get interested. Not offended, but supremely interested. I am about to find out some
valuable information:

* The person may not have a clue about JKD. In which case, now I know what would work on this critic.

* He or she may notice what other, weaker, JKD practitioners are doing. This will help me against the Jeet Kune Do martial artists, too.

* I might learn popular beliefs and misconceptions about JKD.

* And most important, I might find a flaw in what I do, that needs to be corrected.

What's more, if the critic has an answer, then the fix could be an easy change.

Analyzing Other Martial Arts Styles

Now, let's change roles. Instead of receiving criticism, what if you were the one examining the different styles, looking for flaws?

Hmm.

Let me ask you, whom would you put your money on in a fight? The person who, with blinders on, only practices his or her classical style, without ever examining what others are doing, OR someone who diligently looks for weaknesses that can be taken advantage of, from a
large variety of styles? (Whew, apologies for that long ... and still incomplete ... sentence.)

And that my friend(s), is what progressive martial arts is about.

Martial Arts Self-Defense Weapons - What IS Kubotan ?

"Fistful of Dynamite," "Rod of Pain," and many others lead the way as writers share their own knowledge and insight into this inconspicuous, and yet surprisingly powerful little weapon. Unfortunately, far too many of these articles serve little to no real purpose in helping you to actually create results. And, these articles range in scope from the generalized "what it is" variety, to the overly bloated tome that includes what seems to be every single detail and supposition that the author wishes to impress you with.

Believe me, I have read a lot of what's available, and while there are certainly a number of valuable resources from real experts, they are buried in a cyber-world of practically worthless "chatter." While you can feel free to recreate my extensive research on the subject, I've brought it all together so you don't have to.

So, what, exactly, is a Kubotan (pronounced "koo-bow-tahn") anyway?

Good question. And to answer that, you can read the book titled, KUBOTAN: Self-Defense Keychain to get a much better idea. But, for now, I'll give you the short, "what's it look like and what else might it be called," version. For those interested, the above book covers the viewpoints of "where did it come from and how long has it been around," as-well-as others in its other chapters.

In my other articles, you can take a quick overview of the strengths and weakness of this popular self-defense weapon. But, for now...

The Kubotan, also known as a...

1. Pocket-stick...

2. Self-Defense Keychain...

3. Mini-Stick, and...

4. many others...

...is arguably, the most common self-defense weapon, next to the handgun, in the United States.

While many new tactical weapons continue to find growing acceptance within the law enforcement and security communities, there seems to be little change within the realm of private citizens. It appears that, once people find a good thing, they tend to "stick" with it. (Yes, pun intended!) According to many experts in the field of defense and personal protection...

"...the most popular, and quite possibly the most versatile, personal defense weapon is the Kubotan."

For simplicity's sake, I'll refer to the weapon throughout this article as the Kubotan or, more simply, the self-defense keychain. However, regardless of the name given to it, this powerful little compliance tool, carried by thousands of men and women - martial artists and non-practitioners alike - is an awesome means of deterring and controlling an attack situation.

Besides being, quite probably the cheapest weapon you can buy, in the hands of even a person skilled in only a few basic moves, the Kubotan is a formidable weapon for stopping an assailant in his tracks. And, for those with more training and developed skills, the self-defense keychain is one of the most effective self-defense tools that you can use today.

The weapon is simple in appearance, inexpensive to acquire or make, and fairly easy to conceal. While not as versatile and convenient as a clipknife like the Delica from Spyderco - my preferred weapon/tool of choice, by the way - it is definitely easy-to-learn and even easier-to-use.

Depending on the manufacturer, the Kubotan is just a basic rod made of metal, plastic, or wood. It's about 6 inches long and, as the name suggests, usually has a key ring attached at one end. The "official," patented, Kubotan weapon "invented" by a man named Tak Kubota, has grooves machined into the weapon to identify it as a unique creation. But, just like "Band-aid" has come to be the generic name for adhesive bandages and "Q-Tips" the same for cotton swabs, the bar-shaped, self-defense keychain is almost universally called a "Kubotan."

There are other variants of the basic model, including what is billed as the "Ninja" version of the weapon. This little piece of imaginative effort, created during the '80's when every weapon had it's own "Ninja" version, has two thinner spikes protruding out from the side of the weapon that fit between your fingers when you grasped the main bar of the tool.

Let me assure you that, regardless of what you ever read or hear, the Kubotan or self-defense keychain is NOT a Ninja weapon - officially or unofficially. It's ancestors that gave rise to the modern version, at least in Japan, were used by almost all trained warriors - not just the Ninja.

The more commonly recognized variants of the weapon are generally manufactured from heavy-duty plastic or aluminum. The official Kubotan, and third-party copies, are simply straight rods with blunt ends. However, many self-defense key chains have at least one tapered end with the key ring attached to the squared, blunt end. Needless to say, some of these "centerpunch-like versions, are extremely dangerous - as they have the capability of actually penetrating the target and doing more severe damage.

And, for those of you who are fashion-conscious and need to make sure that your self-defense weapon doesn't clash with your Armani, these little gems even come in a variety of colors and high-tech shapes to match just about any ensemble.

So, to answer the question, "what IS a Kubotan?"

It is a simple, easy to learn and use, self-defense weapon that can be effectively used by the smallest defender, to bring the largest assailant to his knees in seconds. Quite simply, it is the best weapon for the person with little to no formal training and who wants to be able to learn to defend him or herself with the least amount of time, effort, and money.

Muay Thai Deadly Skills

Muay Thai, literally Thai Boxing and also known as The Art of the Eight Limbs. The different styles of kickboxing in Southeast Asia are analogous to the different types of Kung Fu in China or Silat in the Malay world. The Thai military uses a modified form of Muay Thai called Lerdrit. The art is also known by other names in Southeast Asia such as: Pradal Serey in Cambodia, Lethwei in Myanmar, Tomoi in Malaysia, and Muay Lao in Laos.

Benefits of Martial Arts

Martial arts is gaining popularity among people of all ages. One key reason could be that learning martial arts can open one to many key benefits. One of the top benefits of martial arts training is that you have learnt the art of defending yourself.

Self Defense

For most people, this is the most popular reason why people learn martial arts. When you learn how you could defend yourself and your family, this could be your best investment to come especially in today's violent times.

Of course you must remember that martial arts as portrayed in movies like Charlie's Angel etc, is filled with dramatization and in real life, martial arts is not just about jumping, kicking etc. It is a combination of mind and body control which can be mastered after years of dedicated practice and devotion to the art.

Physical Health

Of the many benefits of martial arts, maintenance of physical fitness is another benefit for which people learn and practice martial arts. Karate, Tae Kwon Do, Kung Fu are some of the martial arts styles which are excellent for cardio fitness as well as improving the muscular system of the body.

These exercises are useful for strength building as the several movements involved in martial arts training but may not be as effective as workouts with weight lifting. Since martial arts training makes you learn the effective use of strength, these exercises definitely improve your overall body stamina and power. The other important benefit of martial arts is that the exercises help in improving the body's flexibility.

This is because martial arts training works with the entire range of body motions. Martial arts styles like tae kwon do, Thai kickboxing as well as some schools of karate and kung fu uses high kicks which helps in the improvement of balance and sense of coordination as well.

Mental Health

One other benefit of martial arts which one can never get in any other form of physical sports or activity is the improvement of mental and sometimes spiritual faculties. Mind control is one of the key elements of martial arts training and it helps the practitioner by enabling him to control several emotions like anger, fear, anxiety etc.

A few martial artists even find mental peace through the practice of this art. If you consider modern life with its due share of stress and anxiety which envelop most of us, developing such mental skills can help us get natural relief from many stressful situations as we are better equipped with stronger stress management tools. Being a thoroughly engaging activity, martial arts can make us forget most of the daily worries and tensions and you could emerge a fresh, energized and enthusiastic person after a martial arts training session.

Self Confidence

Another good thing that come from learning martial arts is the gradual build up of self confidence and stamina. Since the art has to be learnt in slow and steady steps, you get the feeling of accomplishment and pride as you move on from one step to another. This aspect of the benefits of martial arts is especially applicable for children who are shy and reticent.

Martial arts training could bring out the best in such children as they grow up to be self-confident adults through the many changes which these training sessions bring forth. Of course it can improve the levels of self confidence in adults too.

This art also teaches you how to face the several challenges in life, be it mental or physical with greater fortitude and lesser fear and apprehension. One other benefit of martial arts is that it induces a tremendous sense of discipline in the practicing individual.




As you can see, the benefits of martial arts are many. Anyone who practices martial arts often find themselves gaining benefits beyond what they have expected. Want to learn more about how to pick up the right martial arts for you? Go to http://www.MartialArtsMagic.com right now to find out more.

Martial Arts CHARACTER And the Universal Law of Interdependence - The Keys to Life Mastery, Key #2

In the philosophical teachings which form the foundation for the Ninja Warrior's lifeways, there is a principle known as the 'law of interdependence.' This so-called 'law' is not a must-do rule which one must follow, nor is it to be confused with dependence or co-dependence as it is seen today where one or more individuals who cannot or choose not to provide for themselves, lean on and 'depend' on the work and resources of another for the fulfillment of their needs. Rather, the law of interdependence is something that is to be recognized as a basic 'truth' in the world.

Much like the law of gravity or cause and effect, it is something that is 'going-on,' always, regardless of whether we 'believe' in it or not. In fact, contrary to our need to believe that we are what we are, this principle in action shows us that we are more like others than we know.

Unlike the law of gravity, however, which is difficult to understand and explain; interdependence is relatively easy to explain. Let's use a simple analogy to understand this 'goings-on.' We'll use something simple, like a Whopper. No, I'm not being paid to endorse a food franchise and you can feel free to substitute this item for any of a thousand others. But, for our purposes, it will do.

Now, most people would agree to the connection between themselves and all of the individuals working in the restaurant at the moment you visited and placed your order for the sandwich. Someone took your order; another was busy making the product; and others made sure it found its way to a tray or bag and ultimately into your hand. In this simple view, there is an interdependent connection between you - the person who 'wants' the sandwich, and those who are making sure that you get it.

Of course, seen from the viewpoint of any worker, they are mutually dependent on you, and many others throughout a day, wanting and willing to pay for a sandwich so that they can get a paycheck at the end of the week. For you: no restaurant - no sandwich. For them: no customers, no restaurant, no paycheck.

But, in the words of the enigmatic guru "Morphius" from the popular movie, "The Matrix", if you really want to see "how deep the rabbit hole goes," we can look much more closely at that simple sandwich.

Let's begin with the wrapper. It wasn't made there at the restaurant. It was delivered, probably by truck. Which means what? Well, where do you want to start? Driver? Truck dealership who sold it to Burger King? Truck manufacturer? Trailer manufacturer? Get the idea?

For now, let's stay with the driver and truck remaining associated with the restaurant. But, already we're talking about more than just the employees working in the restaurant, aren't we. Many, if not all of them have families which will benefit from their paycheck in some way just as the company is benefiting from their desire or willingness to do the job they're doing.

The wrapper itself is paper which now extends our connection to people working in the logging and paper production industries and their families. The ink does the same along those lines; and so on throughout the rest of the parts of the sandwich like the burger, vegetables, and so on.

"What's the point?", I can hear you asking. "How does this relate to personal development, martial arts, self-defense or my life?" After all, aren't we different than a sandwich?

I don't think it's the answer that will drive the point home as much as a question: If a burger can be made up of the materials, effort, energy, intention and connections of so many that it almost touches the lives of every other person on the planet - how can we believe that we, as so-called 'individuals,' can be any different? After all, haven't each one of us been influenced, positively or negatively, by other people, places, and situations that caused us to believe, act, and engage the world the way we do?

Can you imagine how different you would be had those influences been different or not there at all? Just think about what motivated you to take up martial arts training. Regardless of whether it was for self-defense, the allure of Asian culture, or soemthing else - you were first exposed to those 'other things' - giving you your reason to take up the arts. The saying goes, "no (wo)man is an island," and it's true. No matter how much we would like to be an 'individual,' we are nonetheless, tied to every other human being on the face of the planet - if by no other means than the water we drink and the air we breath. The law of interdependence teaches us to recognize the value in all things and to treat everything as though it were 'me.' Only then can one be sure that we are not acting in an egotistical, self-serving way that will harm, alienate, or hinder ourselves or others.

What does this have to do with our training? It is the person who recognizes and acts knowing that this is true who builds his or her world rather than isolating themselves as important and in contrast with everything and everyone else that is seen as 'obviously' of lesser value. It is the ego who must be "right" and "righteous" that needs to attack others - to fight for 'right.'

There is an old saying that goes: "the truest measure of a person's character is in the way he or she treats those least important to them." Once we understand, and can 'see', how our every thought, word, and action acts upon the world, we can take control of the process and decide to build a character that takes responsibility for the way it affects others. No longer will we act out of a state of disconnection and isolation, but move purposefully through our world with compassion and disciplined action.

We have a choice. We can be 'nice' to others because it's proper manners to do so, because we expect to get something from them, or because we have to live with them. Or, we can treat others with respect and honor because we recognize that we are already connected to them in some way already.

Strikeforce - Gina Carano vs Cris Cyborg Fight Results Video



Fight Results (FULL FIGHT VIDEO) - Gina Carano vs Cris Cyborg Fight Results August 15, 2009. GINA VS CYBORG

Aug 12, 2009

Carano lifeblood of women’s MMA

Gina Carano has done hundreds of interviews and personal appearances since the day in the spring she announced she’d reached contract terms to fight Christiane “Cyborg” Santos on Saturday at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif.

And in virtually every one of those interviews, Carano can barely finish a sentence without beaming and chuckling a bit.

Santos is, by far, the most dangerous woman she’s ever faced, yet Carano exudes cool. The pressure on her in Saturday’s nationally televised bout is immense. There is no athlete in any sport, male or female, who is more important to the success of that sport than Carano is to women’s mixed martial arts.

If Carano quit fighting tomorrow, though, she’d take women’s MMA down with her. She’s in the main event Saturday and has received superstar treatment, but there wouldn’t be a women’s fight on television, let alone headlining the card, if Carano weren’t involved.

Through it all, though, she manages to remain one of sport’s most humble and self-effacing figures.

Nothing seems to faze her. She seems as if she’s going to play tennis in the park with her sister, yet she’s fighting for the first Strikeforce women’s featherweight championship in the main event of a much-hyped nationally televised bout.

She was an instant hit in her first MMA bout and hasn’t slowed down. Yet, she doesn’t try to figure it out and just seems to enjoy the attention and the chance to increase the visibility of a sport she loves.

“I don’t have to be there for the sport to be successful,” Carano said. “I’m doing the best with this opportunity to represent the sport. I’m doing everything I can do. But the sport is awesome. It’ll make it by itself. They don’t need me for it to be successful. I’m being given the chance right now for a period of time and there will be another person with the chance next.”

Eventually, some woman would have come along who would have done for women’s MMA what Carano is doing now. Carano, though, has essentially created the industry.

It hasn’t been without potholes along the way.

Just as when Woods joined the PGA Tour and there were players who were unhappy with the amount of attention he commanded, so are there women who are unhappy that the world seems not to notice them and lavishes attention on Carano.

Eventually, those golfers who complained about the attention being paid to Woods were soon thankful that he was on the Tour when purses started to rise, crowds began to swell, television ratings soared and sponsorship opportunities increased dramatically.

Carano is doing the same thing for female fighters. She was the first woman to fight on both premium cable and network television and is now the first woman to headline a live nationally televised card.

(Esther Lin/AP Photo/Strikeforce)

Whether she wins or loses on Saturday won’t matter, because her contribution to MMA will go far beyond a single bout. Because of Gina Carano, it’s OK to put a women’s fight on television. Men’s MMA is still struggling to reach the mainstream, but Carano is doing her part to nudge it in the right direction.

She’s been the epitome of class and grace in the most trying of circumstances. Most importantly, her fights consistently deliver. She’s one of the most exciting fighters, male or female, active today.

The fight on Saturday figures to be a Fight of the Year type of bout in which each woman will stand and throw power shots at the other. She relishes that type of head-to-head showdown.

“I think Cyborg said it best,” Carano said. “It’s going to be who makes the least amount of mistakes [who wins]. We both have things going for us. We’re about the same size. She’s got bigger muscles, but I’m pretty strong and I love to get down.”

She concedes the nerves occasionally get the best of her, but her trainer, five-time Ultimate Fighting Championship title-holder Randy Couture, has spent plenty of time advising her on the mental side of the game.

Couture is renowned for his ability to relax and remain calm and he’s shared his secrets with Carano.

“Randy Couture has taught me a lot of things, like the difference being anxious and nervous,” Carano said. “Nervous is negative. Anxious is when you expect to do well. There are good and bad days. I can’t let the pressure get to me. I’m still human.

“Some days, I’m wondering how this all happened and why I got this opportunity. I’ve gotten to go to Thailand, New York. I love life.”

That passion translates easily to the public, which picks up on it and embraces her. Fans love athletes who are highly skilled, highly motivated and who clearly enjoy what they do, as Carano does.

Her mere presence has made Saturday’s show an event rather than just another fight card. No athlete in any sport has had the kind of impact, particularly in such a short time, that Carano has had on women’s MMA.

All you have to do is watch on Saturday and you’ll quickly understand why. When she eventually walks away and hangs up the gloves, there will be little doubt that Gina Carano left her sport a lot better off than when she joined it.

UFC keeps Cro Cop in the fold


Heavyweight contender Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic has signed a three- fight contract extension with the Ultimate Fighting Championship, UFC president Dana White said on Monday.

Filipovic’s rights were in dispute after UFC 99 when Yahoo! Sports, the Canadian Press and several Japanese newspapers reported that Filipovic was going to spurn the oral agreement he made with the UFC and instead fight for the Japanese-based promotion, DREAM.

Several days after the initial reports, Sergio Non of USA Today reported that DREAM official Mike Kogan confirmed that Filipovic would fight on its July 20 show. A fight between Filipovic and “Mighty” Mo Siligia briefly appeared on DREAM’s website as scheduled for July 20.

But Filipovic never signed the DREAM contract and opted instead to honor the agreement he made over the telephone with White. Filipovic’s first bout on the extension will be against Junior dos Santos at UFC

103 in Dallas on Sept. 19.

White blamed Filipovic’s manager, Ken Imai, for the confusion over Filipovic’s rights. Imai could not be reached for comment.

White, though, said he was pleased to have Filipovic back in the fold.

“I never had a problem with Mirko himself and I’m looking forward to having him fight for us again,” White said. “He’s said (his previous stint in) the UFC is the black mark on his career and he wants to do something about that.”

Dana White says Fedor Emelianenko will fight in the UFC, Brock Lesnar fight imminent


Prior to this past Saturday's UFC 100 cases, which is an underground movement and hold-called mixed martial arts fans attend the show start "Fedor!" chants throughout the night.

The idea was, of course, that the UFC executives are well aware of how fans of Fedor Emelianenko, world ranking in the top-heavy, without a doubt the greatest MMA fighter in the division of history, the fight in the octagon.

Songs never heard, but after 100 UFC, UFC president Dana White said he wants Emelianenko in the UFC have been, and that the fight with Brock Lesnar is imminent.

Lesnar, former World Wrestling Entertainment superstar and NCAA Division I national champion game, picked up his third victory and the first UFC title defense with a dominant TKO secondary interim holder Frank Mir at UFC 100 main event.

Lesnar to the current strip victory over Heath Herring, the winner of Randy Couture and Mir hours, many of them focusing on possible future opponents seemingly invincible and ground pound machines.

Emelianenko, a former long-time PRIDE-hard boxing champion, is the man to see how many more chances of falling Lesnar. At 30-1 with back-to-back love conquer two former UFC champions (Tim Sylvia and Andrei Arlovski) and 26-0 record (with the non-competition) for the past nine years, many fans are clamoring for the Russian fishing pick up talent in the world of the major fight organizations.

"This Fedor thing has gone on and on and on," White said in the post-UFC 100 press conference. "Eventually, Fedor's going to be here. I want Fedor. I want him to come to the UFC and everything else. "This guy (Brock Lesnar) just won the heavyweight title, and we'll end up getting that deal done. And then we'll do Brock vs. Fedor, and it'll be a huge fight." How soon could we such the fight? "Who knows," White said. "He's obviously contractually obligated to fight (with Affliction). Once that's over, we'll figure it out."

Emelianenko UFC officials met with representatives and more than once. But the meeting very productive and often each side blaming the other for the failure to reach agreement to do. The UFC said Emelianenko requirements were too outrageous, not necessarily in monetary terms (but Emelianenko is that at least 2 million dollars to fight), but for the company, which requires the organization to enter the Russian market as a sales manager with Emelianenko, Vadim Finkelchtein . Emelianenko says UFC contract conditions are too restrictive, and without compensation, such as partners and managed competition to combat all aspects of their careers.

Concessions must be, and often provide short-White brought the possibility of entrepreneurship, which will be implemented. In fact, white, often criticized by hunting, which leads to Emelianenko "sucks", while the sardonic recent previous opponents as kick boxer Hong Man Choi and Matt Lindland, who normally fights at middle weight.

But White tune has changed, and Saturday, he spoke more definitively about the future of the UFC fighter.

Of course, that future could depend Emelianenko next fight on 1 August "condition" Trilogy. "My Emelianenko faces another former UFC champion, Josh Barnett, which includes many of the division three or four.

Barnett, but do not expect to receive the same call for the UFC, that knocks Emelianenko.

Why?

"No one's beating down my door to get Barnett," White said.

Randy Couture: Brock Lesnar's Antics Not What UFC Is About



Former UFC heavyweight champion Randy Couture was, like almost every mixed martial arts fan I've heard from in the last three days, disappointed in the way Brock Lesnar acted after beating Frank Mir at UFC 100. And Couture sounds like he's angling for a shot at Lesnar himself.

"I didn't really expect him to lose his mind after the fight, but he did," Couture said of Lesnar. "That's just not the kind of thing our sport is known for, those kinds of antics and those kinds of comments."

Couture also took a shot at Lesnar for saying he planned to get on top of his wife, Rena Mero, who's better known as the WWE star and former Playboy cover girl Sable.

"I'm thinking, What, is that a special occasion?," Couture said. "You're married to Sable, you'd think that'd be happening all the time."

Although UFC President Dana White has said he expects the winner of the Shane Carwin-Cain Velasquez fight at UFC 104 to get the next shot at Lesnar, Couture came across like he's itching to have a rematch with Lesnar, who beat him in November. If Couture beats Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira next month at UFC 102, I think there's a good chance we'll get to see Couture-Lesnar 2.

And Couture seems like he's confident he'd do better in a rematch than he did the first time around, saying of Lesnar, "Somebody's going to kick your butt."

UFC 100 - Brock lesnar vs Frank mir full fight

Here is the Brock Lesnar vs Frank Mir 2 video.




UFC 100 Brock Lesnar vs Frank Mir Part 1



UFC 100 Brock Lesnar vs Frank Mir Part 2


Here is the Brock Lesnar vs Frank Mir 2 video.

The highly publicized second re-match between Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir ended with Brock Lesnar victorious after stopping Mir in the second round.

The Brock Lesnar vs Frank Mir re-match was one of two hyped fights of the night. The second, Georges St. Pierre vs Thiago Alves, saw Pierre successful in defending his welterweight title.

17 months earlier, Lesnar lost to Frank Mir by way of submission in his UFC debut, and Lesnar vowed to avenge his loss. Lesnar quickly brought Mir down early in the two rounds. In the second round, the fight had to be stopped at 1 minute, 48 seconds, after Lesnar pummeled Mir repeatedly (14 punches to be exact) in the face until referee Herb Dean stepped in to stop the fight.

After his win, Lesnar trash talked
Mir and flipped the Mandalay Bay crowd off. His gesture garnered boos and said, “I love it! Keep it going!”

He then put down UFC’s top sponsor, Bud Light, saying that he was going to drink Coors Light to celebrate his victory because “Bud Light won’t pay me nothing.”

He went on to say, “Hell, I may even get on top of my wife tonight,” (Rena “Sable” Mero, a former WWE Diva) Lesnar said as she looked on and laughed. “See y’all later.”

Lesnar has since apologized, saying:
