Basic Locks and Twist Manual

Have started to get my Basic Locks and Twist Manuals (3) transfered to digital format for download as a e-book. This is the written format I used for my Kenpo Jiu Jitsu basics DVD series. The manuals will really compliment your personal martial arts reference library. Hopefully I will have this completed by the end of the summer. Please watch for more.

The learning curve

There are two ways to really increase your martial arts abilities. First (and I have written this before) keep educating yourself. Second - practice - and practice they way you want to perform. Every student at the Karate Center has a chance to do both this summer. We are offering weekly weapons classes plus sparring sessions no less than three times per week. Friday from 6-7:30pm come in and work on your self defense.
