    Tai Chi, Cardio Kickboxing, Cross Training, Yoga, and other Distractions

    I am sometimes contacted by people who want to learn something very specific: say, tai chi, yoga or cardio-kickboxing. I have done these activities in the past, but I don’t teach them.

  • Training Notes

    These are just some notes and interpretations from the past six months of training. If they help you, cool. If you disagree or would like to expand on anything, feel free to do that in the comments. Discussion is always welcome.   Don’t use the body to power strikes. Keep stance and body still like…
