A great episode covering some technical details on kicking and then moving quickly into how Chris' approach to building a kicking and martial arts curriculum is secretly a parallel to how we can all become better humans. Be present and remember that small incremental changes make habits you want to form better.

In this episode I get to visit with Master Jose Ramirez of the Christian Taekwondo League (San Antonio, TX) on the Top 10 Taekwondo Mistakes You Are Making (and not really you, of course, but probably someone you know).
Kata, also referred to as forms, is defined as a system of individual training exercises for practitioners of karate and other martial arts and it's a term from which virtually ever martial artists if familiar with. And while I used to think it was just part of the deal, another step towards belt promotion, I feel like I have been fortunate enough to meet some men and women in my martial arts journey who have opened my eyes to not only what they are, but what they can be. And I'm excited to present this recording I did with one of those men - Hanshi, or 8th Dan, Tony Georgiades, or "JorJaDes" if you can't roll your Rs...

Needless to say, it was an honor to not just meet Hanshi at the recentlt USIMOF, but a real gift that he was willing to sit down with me and have this conversation. I fall in the camp of people who happen to like kata and after visiting with Hanshi Georgiades, I like it even more.
An educational conversation with 5th Dan in Aikido, Master Travis Bratton. A retired Army (Army Combative level 3), Master Bratton also has his 4th Dan in Taekwondo and 2nd Dan in Hapkido. His main goal is to help children stay off the streets and build a foundation of discipline, respect and self-esteem.
