I'm glad Obama was elected, simply because McCain was old, and if he died in office, we'd have Sarah Palin for president. THAT would be truly...
I'm not usually accident prone, and am not really the clumsy type, but of late I've had more accidents than usual. Especially paper cuts. I seem...
You might want to google "Aliveness" to see Matt Thornton's video and article on the subject. I had the same question as you do once and his...
Matt Furey's stuff is overpriced and not too useful. Try Thomas Kurz's material instead.
I've never heard of these guys, but two red flags that bother me: 1. Their style's name is trademarked. 2. They are not koryu. This is...
The thing with BJJ is that it will take a long time to get good, regardless of your size. I'm a big, fairly strong guy (6'1", 200 lbs.) and I had...
Yes... It's been accepted science for over a century... >.>
What bothers me the most is that this man is a contender for the presidency, yet he doesn't even know what the word "theory" means... :bang:...

The first two are good, especially for the nostalgia factor. I remember when I was young and the ninja turtles were huge... I think back then...
It's appalling enough that this kind of things happens at all... but in the United States? That's pretty disturbing. Anyway, I agree with...
Many of the kicks you find in styles like TKD, XMA, and sport schools are entirely useless, unfortunately. Anything that involves the words...
If your instructor's motivation bothers you that much, then quit. But, as others have said, if you are getting good training that you enjoy (and...
I study the Ed Parker American Kenpo system at Red Dragon Martial Arts Studio, and am currently a white belt. As for what I like about kenpo......
Okay, so, I really suck at exercise. I'm pretty noobish, and know little about training of any sort. I've been training the last few weeks with...
As far as I know there is no official ninjutsu conditioning. In my time in the Bujinkan, we did not do any workouts/conditioning in class; we...
Chocolate coins = win. As for me... some books would be nice. I like books. Wouldn't say no to some new sparring gear either. :D
