Blue Tiger Tactical Defense

Tiger Workout Updated

I've updated the Tiger Workout page to include the entire series from Salute to sweat-drenched finale. 

Justin and I finished off the 3rd Black techniques and I'll be working on getting all those techniques updated while we practice through May. 

It's my hope that we will be testing on the last Thursday in May.  We are going to spend the entire month practicing but everyone is going to need to practice at home because there isn't enough class time to practice every single technique.  We don't want to struggle through the Blues again this time.

- Courage and Fierceness in Battle.

Workouts

There are going to be three workouts that we'll be doing.  We'll use the one that we are all familiar with plus two new ones.  I have created a page called Tiger Workout for people who forgot what the workout was.  The link is in the right sidebar.

Bring a towel, some Gatorade, and an attitude because we're going to get back in shape.

Guess what I found?

Guess what I found the other day as I was looking for something else?

The Deck of Chaos!

Guess what we'll be doing this Saturday.

Yay!

I'm learning new exercises to pass on

Can you say, "Yay!"?

Time to get busy with it again

Starting September 1st, we're going to add the exercise portion back into our practice.  We'll start at 9am and end around noon.  We'll have to figure out how to make things work when we move indoors in the winter but I'm sure we can figure something out.

It's important for combat to be fit so we'll get back to it.

Exercise

I'm considering going back to doing our exercises again in the Wendover school.  We would have to figure something out when we moved indoors though.  What do you guys think?

Kenpo X

I came across a DVD called Kenpo X.  It's a cardio workout with Kenpo moves.  I haven't tried it yet but I'm going to.

Fitness Levels

In training security, it has become very apparent that fitness level is incredibly important for combat.  That seems obvious but I think a lot of people study the moves and think that martial arts knowledge is enough.  Only if the fight ends in the first few seconds.
