Training Muay Thai Style
October 5, 2012
How to Train Muay Thai Style by: Troy Macraft
If you have ever wanted to learn Muay Thai? Then you need to keep in mind that your upcoming training will be extremely intensive. Furthermore, some Muay Thai fighters who had previously trained in boxing say that the training for Muay Thai is a lot more intense then they have done in boxing.
Muay Thai is known as the art of 8 limbs, the reason it has earned this name is because you will learn how to use the eight natural weapons which are;
- fists
- feet
- elbows
- knees
When it comes to destroying and dominating an opponent there is no match for the More >

Should You Pick-Up Some “Dirty” Street Fighting Techniques? by: Wisey Lim
Ask yourself this question, “Should you pick-up some street fighting techniques? How much money would you pay to answer the cries of someone you love, who has been brutally ripped away from you by a sadistic predator….as you lay on the ground helpless?”
Imagine this, you are running out of some errands tonight with your girlfriend, wife or kid and were suddenly and unexpectedly attacked. Will you regret by not picking-up some close combat street fighting skills that could have saved them? The truth is, you can’t live More >
Total Control Martial Arts

Master Lawrence Lee
The Founder of the Total Control martial arts system.
Master Lawrence Lee with 59 years of Kung Fu and Muay Thai experience came from very humble beginnings. Originally from Malaysia, he was beaten up by a girl in kindergarten called Yoke King. She was a huge chunky lass with more male hormones than she knew what to do with.
That was the defining moment of his life. He decided at that age that he must be a good fighter and with the strongest mind. Master Lee started to learn Shiao Lin from his father Tong, also a Kung Fu master.
At the age of 8 Lawrence realised he was More >

Real Life Superhero Phoenix Jones

Batman. Spiderman. The Green Hornet. And now, Phoenix Jones.
By day, he may be your average Joe. By night, however, one Seattle, Wash. man assumes a philanthropic persona to lend a helping, albeit gloved, hand. KIROreported that Phoenix Jones, unknown by any other name, stopped an in-progress grand theft auto recently by chasing away the perpetrator. The would-be victim, who asked to be referred to as “Dan,” couldn’t believe his eyes.“From the right, this guy comes dashing in, wearing this skin-tight rubber, black and gold suit, and starts chasing him away.”
Phoenix Jones is no stranger More >

No Martial Arts or Self-Defense Technique is Perfect by: Jeffrey M. Miller
Far too many people who are training in the martial arts or in a self-defense program – including police and security personnel by-the-way – take for granted that all they have to do is learn a few tricks and that’s it. When, according to the reality and nature of self-defense, no technique that you’ve learned in a martial arts or self-defense class is perfect in-and-of-itself for the unique situation and circumstances that you will find yourself in when you need it. And…
..that’s okay.

Martial Arts Training for Real Self-Defense: Making Sense of Chaos by: Jeffrey M. Miller
I once had a talk with a student who pointed out the almost insane notion that anyone could think that they could use a preset string of moves (known as a kata, pronounced kah-tah) to handle something as chaotic as a fight. He said it made no sense to him how any master, who really knew what he was talking about, could pass down “the answer” to such an unknown as a fight.
He’s right. And yet, day after day, in countless schools, training centers, police departments, and military units around the world, More >

ENGAGEMENT: Recognizing the Value of Training – The Keys to Martial Arts Mastery, Key #6 by: Jeffrey M. Miller
Remember when you first started training? For some, it was just a few days or weeks ago, for others, years have gone by since we took our first step on the Path of Warrior Mastery. But, can you remember?
Even more importantly, can you remember what brought you to the program? What was going on in your life at the time. How long had you been thinking about taking martial arts classes and why then, at that moment, did you decide to take action?
Remember what you told us you wanted to More >
