Firewalk in Casselman, Ontario this Weekend!

What would you do if you were standing at the edge of this fire pit?

Would you boldly walk across it?

Or would you let fear paralyze you?

The fire pit, just before taking the leap and crossing it.

Fun Kids Activities: Day 3, 30 Day Challenge

Part of my system to building stronger kids, stronger families is to follow this formula.

A+A+S+L

It covers the key areas of physical development in kids.

When watching all my videos you'll notice this is the order in which I train my kids.


This is all kids really need.

Can you figure out what the letters mean?

Have fun, laugh and strengthen your bond as a family.

Sibok Martin

Fun Kids Activities: Day 2, 30 Day Challenge

Welcome to Day 2 of our 30 Day Challenge to building stronger kids, stronger families.

Strong kids and strong families are built, nourished, and maintained. They don't just happen all by themselves.

Apart from the obvious benefits of exercise, these drills and workouts will solidify your bond with your kids and doing these Fun Kids Activities is part of the process.

Isn't that the reason you had kids in the first place?

To love, laugh, and share special moments with your family.

To create an extension of you and your wife and act as a guide and role model in key areas, the core values.

Each child will grow up to be their own person and eventually there will be a time where you have to release them to the world and hope that you did the best job possible arming them with the right principles and instilling in them a strong foundation of values they can in turn, carry throughout their life and share with their own kids eventually.

Here's one thing I love doing with all my kids.

Enjoy!

Sibok Martin

Fun Kids Activities: Day 1, 30 Day Challenge

In this 30 Day Challenge I'm going to push you to connect more, laugh more, sweat more with your kids.

Be the role model they look up to. Let's fight this trend we see in kids who are struggling with their weight, poor academic results and low self-esteem.

Ready to take the challenge? Let's start!





It's easy, it doesn't take long, your kids will love you for it, they'll get stronger, you'll get fitter as a result of doing these drills and exercises with them, raise your child's self-confidence so they can grow up determined and motivated to accomplish anything they set their mind to.

Stronger Kids, Stronger Families!

About mixed martial arts Pro Fighter Julien Leblanc

One of our soon to be Pro Fighters, Julien Leblanc talks about (in French) his experience training with the Patenaude Team, what it takes to succeed in your training and how he got to be where he's at in MMA.



Julien has accomplished alot in the past 5 years. He literally could not do one single push-up when he started.

He had low self-confidence.

And was overweight.

Now, he's one of our top competitors, he's undefeated and he's making his Pro debut in September.

Julien's story isn't an isolated incident.

You too can make a positive change in your life by joining our team. All that is required is effort, perseverance and commitment.

Workouts for women, at home workouts, arm ab work out

Having problems getting rid of stubborn fat around the waistline? What about Bra fat? And your butt? Hips and Arms?

One word of caution. This is not your typical Cardio Boxing, Cardio Kickboxing Class, Tae-Bo Class or Pilates class.

This fitness for women program works! We guarantee you'll discover muscles you didn't think existed on your body and you'll discover it's easier than you think to reach your fitness goals.

This class is reserved for women who are serious about increasing their levels of strength, muscular definition, flexibility, fat loss, and learning the basics of Kickboxing (Punching & Kicking) all the while giving you an environment that is safe (either in the comfort of your own home or in one of our 22 locations in Eastern Canada) and supportive, so all women can get the bodies as well as the mental focus and clarity that comes from following our women's fitness programs.

What you learn in our work out for women program is still considered a sport and in no way do we claim that learning these techniques will save your life in a real street attack but knowing how to punch and kick will definitely give you an advantage over a woman who only goes to the Gym.

Women have never been more involved in contact sports than now. With the ever growing participation of women in MMA (Rhonda Rousey), Sanshou, Muay Thai, Boxing and Kickboxing you'll feel right at home the minute you walk into one of our schools.

It's the perfect combination of getting you to sweat and burn fat while learning the proper way to punch and kick without the attitude or feeling intimidated walking into an MMA School which is mostly male dominant. This women's only workouts are designed by women for women.

No fake models or paid testimonials. Watch as real women share their personal stories about what it took to get the results they wanted and what kind of results they got from our Warrior Fitness for women Program.

You'll notice our instructors are caring and patient as well as motivating and enthusiastic.



They'll take you from where you are to where you want to go in a very progressive manner. I guarantee you'll never want to go to the boring gym or aerobics class ever again after you've experienced our dynamic workouts.

Ready to get started? Do you live in the Ottawa, Montreal or Toronto Area? To get you started and on your way to a new you click here.

Don't live next to one of our schools? Purchase our at-home version right here.

2013 Your Best Year Ever

Reproducing the classic picture from Return of the Dragon at the Coliseum in Rome

You've probably heard the term "Modeling" before and today I'd like to amplify the importance it will play in making 2013 your best year ever.

Modeling is finding someone who: "Has what you want" and "Has been where you're at"

Finding the right model will help you save time, cut your learning curve, and avoid costly mistakes (the cost could be financial, emotional or physical). It will help you get closer to achieving your goals in record time.

As you can see from the picture above, one of our model is Bruce Lee. Following Bruce Lee's teachings has helped us streamline our martial art system and not deviate from what is functional, simple and direct in terms of self-defense, fighting or health and fitness.

If someone (a mentor) shows you exactly what they did and how they did it (personally, i.e Coaching, Live Calls, etc... or through their work, i.e Books, Auto-Biographies, etc...), following their recipe so to speak, YOU will have those same results.

What a wonderful concept. But be careful, most people who read this might just keep it at that, a CONCEPT.

Put it in practice! The quality of your results in 2013 are directly linked to the quality of your peers.

In 2013, find people and mentors that "have what you want" and "have been where you're at" in various areas of your life and model them.

I'm curious to know some of your mentors and the people you've chosen to council with.

Feel free to post them on the Fang Shen Do FB page.

Happy New Year,

Sibok Martin
