CYCLE OF BJJ
In BJJ, there is a cycle of phases we go through. As a white belt we go hammer and tong and use all our strength and muscles when we roll,holding on and squeezing as hard as we can and find that we are totally exhausted after 30 secs of it,we only think about getting a […]

THE ART OF BODY MOVEMENT
After 13 years of boxing it still amazes me how the body works and can transfer so much power with minimal motion to such a small part of the body..the fist! I have never been tired of,sick of or bored from martial arts. To me martial arts is about body flow,turning the body into an […]
A SELECTION OF SOME OF MY FAVOURITE BRUCE LEE PHILOSOPHICAL QUOTES ON MARTIAL ARTS AND COMBAT.
The best fighter is not a Boxer, Karate or Judo man. The best fighter is someone who can adapt on any style. He kicks too good for a Boxer, throws too good for a Karate man, and punches too good for a Judo man.When you fight, if it is a real fight, use every tool […]
