Focus is a big topic in martial arts. Many people take our classes just to add more focus to their lives. Here are 3 tips to do just that: 1. Practice stillness. Every day, even if 2 minutes is all you can stand right now, just sit with your eyes closed, and breathe. We live in an ADD world. Challenge it by practicing stillness. 2. Set daily goals. Know what you want to accomplish today. Write it down. Keep that piece of paper with you. Then, whenever you get off track, just pull it out of your pocket and remind yourself of what you're trying to achieve. 3. One task at a time. Our ....

When practice becomes inconsistent, making excuses for staying away becomes easier. There once was a farmer who purchased a very expensive seed with the hope that it would grow into a beautiful fruit tree. He found the perfect place in his garden where the soil was fertile and the sun and shade would be just perfect. He took care to water his seed regularly. Every day, the farmer dreamed of picking delicious juicy fruit from his strong and beautiful tree. Shortly after planting, he became curious about the progress of his seed as he had seen no sprout break through the earth. Just to make sure that everything was going well, he dug up the seed and carefully inspected it for growth. ....

So you want to fight? I am going to share what I believe to be the minimum training requirements to fight in the ring. If you are not willing or able to do this then you have no business fighting in Muay Thai. Fighting in Muay Thai is serious and dangerous. The name of the game is to hurt the other person more than they hurt you. Before you start this journey you should look in the mirror and decide WHY you want to fight? I want to stress that if you want to fight and become a champion in Muay Thai you need to find a qualified Muay Thai Coach/instructor. You can NOT become a champion in Muay Thai on your own. Sure you might be able to win a couple of low level fights ....

Quit dreaming. Just let go of all your dreams, goals, ambitions and aspirations. Settle for less. Make point B disappear, just delete it, and – poof! – The tension is gone. And that, sadly, is the choice that the 95% who travel to failure curve eventually make. It’s not hard to understand why so many people make that second choice. After all, when you’re standing here at point A, gazing off into the distance at point B, it’s easy to be intimidated by how far away it looks. People don’t even want to set foot on the path if they don’t think they can make it to the end. Why even try? I mean, if the mountains that huge, why take the first ....

One of my friends asked “why do you pay so much money for your kids to do martial arts?” Well I have a confession to make. I don’t pay for my kid’s martial arts. Personally, I couldn’t care less about martial arts. So, if I am not paying for martial arts, what am I paying for then? - I pay for those moments when my kids become so tired they want to quit but don’t. - I pay for those days when my kids come home from school and are too “tired” to go to their practice but go anyway. - I pay for my kids to learn to be disciplined. - I pay for my kids to learn to take care of their body. - I pay for my kids to learn ....
