Full video available on our YouTube channel athttps://youtu.be/LxPFfOIoDcs Through years of training and teaching I am often finding myself making many of the same corrections on students. Posture, Rotation, Extension, Push/Pull, and Tension. Young or old, new or seasoned, it's very common that one or all of these elements come up in discussion on a daily basis.

Especially in those just getting started in training, the breathe becomes lost in the tensions of our body's movement and winds up being too early or too late, which in time depletes even more energy. The breathe needs to match the exertion of our body, simultaneous to the physical action in that moment.

There are 5 basic responses to consider when dealing with an oncoming attack: Move you, move it, stop it, cover, and get hit. This quick video reviews those basic concepts with a few pieces of context and essential pointers as you pick up your training in martial arts or self defense. Bear in mind there are more ways than just these five responses once you build experience and recognition. This lesson is limited to the 5 most basic and widely accepted responses as you begin training, or continue building your repertoire.

Read moreThis is a great place to train. For adults, the primary draw is Krav Maga based self-defense that goes beyond traditional Krav Maga, filling in gaps most Krav Maga programs reproduce. There is also a children's program that is very popular. The instructors are knowledgeable, friendly and have varying experiences and martial arts backgrounds that add to training insights.
There are other popular classes including heavy bags as well as striking, combatives and mixed skills. You'll get a good workout but won't skimp on technique and application. In addition you'll find a nice selection of seminars and special topics for both the adult and child classes.
My daughter is seven and she really loves practicing martial arts with Alec. He is a gifted sensei and works well with kids, teaching respect and discipline.
Great place. The instructors are friendly and competent. Class is an excellent work out while teaching self defense in an accessible manner to all skill levels.
