Modern Day Knights

Modern Day Knights Class

I developed and started teaching a new program. Having a masters rank in Feng Xiao Zhang Kung Fu, and Sun Do Won Tae Kwon Do, and have a love for Western Martial arts (14th and 15 century); I created a program that mixes all my interests into one fun and effective self defense system. It truly is a fun class and has become very exciting as I am seeing new kids joining the program and having a blast doing it.

Students will learn all the same great self defense and weaponless fighting techniques of most Eastern martial arts combined with the Western martial arts of longsword, dagger, polearm, and other fun Medieval Weapons. Kids will get physically fit, learn effective self defenses, learn to grapple and fight from the ground, and how to use a sword and many other weapons effectively.

Our current website is: Tactical Kung Fu and MMA

I teach at Tactical Kung Fu and MMA in Durham, NC. It has the best training facilities in the Durham area and perfect to learn both stand up and ground fighting. With emphasis on safety, students will learn how to fight and spar one another with and without weapons. The weapons we use in class are padded and each student wears protective gear. 

As they progress, they start using real steel weapons and be able to compete in local and national tournaments. The Western Martial arts phenomena is taking the US by storm! There is no better time like the present to get your kids in a program such as this. There are schools starting all over the US using the same basic curriculum and concepts taught at our school and providing students a way to compete not only here in the US, but potentially internationally!

Hello from my sexy bearded self.... First of all, I am in no way a model of perfection.

8 Great Christmas Gift Ideas for the steel fighter in your life

Merry Christmas and Happy Armored New Year pic from  www.skotcher.com So, you have one of those crazy people in your life who like to play with swords and whack each other about in tin cans. Sure, we all know they are crazy. However, putting them in straight jackets and sending them off to some asylum may seem excessive. So, instead of giving in to your inner urges and screaming at them, here are a few ideas for shopping for your modern medieval warrior. One other point of clarification. I make no money suggesting these items. I am doing it so I can continue to hit others as much as possible. Is that too much to ask? 1. Forged Foam HMB starter set ($140).

Indiana Spartan Sprint, Achilles Tendonitis, and one proud Pappa!

The past two weeks have been a whirlwind. Traveling back to Indiana to visit friends and family as well as help my mother-in-law get her condo ready to sell has sure tired me out. We spent the early part of the week in Evansville. Cleaning the condo, meeting with realtors took up a lot of our time. We did however get a chance to hang with our fellow Illuminati ( www.weruneverything.org ) teammates and eat, drink, and play board games.  Once the apartment was settled, I tested one of my first students ever to attain her Masters Rank in Feng Xiao Zhang Kung Fu. It has been a pleasure to see her grow in the martial arts. Her test was one of the toughest I have ever given. She passed with flying colors and I couldn't have been prouder. Congratulations Master Anna Moll on your achievement and years of dedication to the martial arts.  After traveling to Indianapolis and visiting with Jennifer's sister, we traveled to Batesville, Indiana and met fellow teamma...
