Life itself is a combat

When you focus on where you want to hit with full commitment and follow through, you get the desired result, a knock out.

Goals are the same as punching, without focus, commitment and follow through nothing ever gets done.






















Alot of people still haven't found out the secret weapon that is martial art training.

Armed with the right instructor and the right system, you'll quickly make parallels between fighting principles and day to day living.

You and I spend way more time dealing with our inner demons than having to defend ourselves for real or having to compete at a high level in a ring or cage.

Life itself is a combat.






















When you understand that, that's where you realize how important it is to acquire tools to defend against the daily challenges of life such as:

Getting up in the morning and loving what you do for a living.

Not being controlled by food that robs you of your energy.

Fighting lazyness.

Blocking the crap that is fed to us through media.

Not being afraid to dream big without feeling guilty.

To stop seeking approval from everybody.

Staying centered and grounded when seeing chaos around you.

Not allowing anybody to put you in a box, speaking from experience, alot of people out there try to label us when it comes to what we do in the martial arts. To quote Bruce Lee: "I have no style, therefore I am all styles."
























The old model of working all your life at the same place, then retiring, is long gone, it's just not fulfilling enough. People by the millions ask themselves at that point: "Is this all there is?"

Same thing with martial arts, the ones who are not constantly evolving will get left behind which is one reason why we're still here after 30 years.

One tool you'll find fascinating is Firewalking.

Everything gets put in perspective the moment you take your first step in the fire pit.

An experience like this strengthens you and opens up your imagination to what you can accomplish.

Join us this Sunday for an unforgettable experience.
