Posts Tagged ‘Members’

  Well we are having an awesome Feb up here at Ocala Karate & Fitness.  www.ocalashinbukan.com  All of our members are training so hard and its such a good thing to see positive things happening for them.   I am seeing members every night now making such huge gains in their training.  Whether it be balance, strength, stamina, cardio conditioning, or just basic understanding of concepts, our members are really making some big steps.  And I couldn’t be happier. 

  All of our classes are filling up with smiling faces and it just really makes Jaime and I happy to see how much fun everyone is having at our school.  This is what teaching these classes are all about.  Seeing the rewards and advances that everyone is starting to make.  It doesn’t matter whether you are in Karate, Cardio, Weapons, or Self Defense; the positive things that are happening are happening everywhere. 

  We really want to thank ALL of our members too for speaking so highly of us through out the community.  Everywhere Jaime and I go now, everyone tells us that all they hear are good things about Ocala Karate & Fitness. 

  Next month our Karate members will get a chance to raise their heads up high and advance to their next rank.  March 12thwill be our next testing for advancement.  It looks like we are going to have a full testing to, with around 20 members testing.  For our members that attend on a regular basis, it takes about 3-4 months to advance between belts.  Having said that, its a really big deal when our members are ready.  Good luck to everyone that is testing.  I know you will do well.

   A special congrats to our Self Defense members too as we push into week 9 of the Self Defense class.  Everyone has done exceptionally well, and are going to really be amazed with themselves over the next 4 weeks as we begin to really crank that class up.  It’s going to be nice when they get to look back on their first week and remember how they struggled just to react to someone assaulting them, to now, the programed response system that has already been wired into them.  That’s what makes this class so unique.  It is highly effective, highly efficient, and very easy to learn.  WWW.ocalaselfdefense.com

Here we go everybody.

We’re wrapping up week #3 in the Self Defense class here at Ocala Karate & Fitness.  www.ocalashinbukan.com.   We’re happy to see that 4 more people joined the class this week and we all had a real good workout Tuesday night.  Tomorrow nights class is going to have everyone leaving with a smile too.  We are going to be working on some really fun drills that are not only really neat to practice, but will begin to develop our members timing and distance.

These are some of the most critical things any Self Defense class must get across to its members.  We have to know how to move, which way to move, and what to do AFTER we move.  And Ocala Karate and Fitness’s Self Defense Black Belt Program delivers exactly that.

Now I know that many of you might not think that you can do this stuff, but trust me when I say that its not hard to learn.  All of these drills have been designed for exactly that!  This is not a course for mixed martial arts or professional fighters.  This program has been designed for everyday 8-5 professionals that are looking to better themselves in many different ways.

Anyone can do this!

This Program is also a really good program to get your sons or daughters involved in before they go off to college.  At least they and you will be able to move away with the peace of mind that they have been professionally trained to defend themselves if need be.  Now what more could you ask for out of a Self Defense program?  www.ocalaselfdefense.com.  How about getting in shape too.

That’s right !  Not only will this Program have you feeling confident about yourself, but it will have you looking your best too.  That’s because all the drills we do in class are really HUGE calorie hogs.  So that means not only are you learning how to defend yourself, but your also getting in shape at the same time.  And if that’s not enough.  All of our Self Defense members have access to ALL the Cardio Classes as well.

So don’t keep putting this off.  Give yourself the ease of mind that you deserve.  Come down to Ocala Karate & Fitness and let us help you get into the best form of your life.

This place is awesome! !

Self Defense Black Belt Program

 We’re rolling into week #2 in Ocala Karate & Fitness’s Self Defense Program and everyone in class is going to notice the pace pick up a bit.  Now I know it’s only week 2 in our Self Defense Class, but everyone attending is going to notice the steady progression every week of this class.  We are beginning at the ground level with very basic fundamental drills that will take our Self Defense members from not knowing how to throw the first punch or kick in a self defense situation to being able to strike an opponent with the right power and authority needed to end a violent situation.

     This week’s class is going to build off of the basic punching combinations learned last week, by adding two new ones into the series.  As the class moves on, these combinations too will help build striking speed and power in our members.  Also this week we will be adding defensive measures against different choking attacks.  Like the striking drills, these drills will also begin basic and then build into more complex and more intense drills that will increase our members strength and confidence over the course of the program.

  The other great thing about this class is that it is a complete THREE year program.  Now you might ask yourself just what exactly does all that mean and how does that benefit our students?  For starters:  This is not a limited or set program, so just when you start to understand what is going on, the class won’t end.  This will allow our Self defense members to continue becoming more comfortable, more confident, and more capable of defending themselves from just about ANY situation that he/she might find themselves in.

      The other thing this means is that our Self defense members get to advance physically as well.  This means that by staying in the program they will be getting more exercise and becoming more fit.  The drills will continue to increase over time and in intensity to help our Self Defense defense members tone up and lose weight at the same time too.  It’s only common sense to realize that ultimately, being able to defend yourself also means you have to be in better shape.  One more reason why this program is becoming as popular here in Ocala as it has. 

  Ocala Karate & Fitness’s Self Defense Program is held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7:00.  For more information on this amazing new progam, check us out at www.ocalaselfdefense.com or www.ocalakaratefitness.com .  Or just stop by in person and see for yourself why every week we continue to position ourselves as Ocala’s Premier Martial Arts School.

                                                                                                 Hope to see you soon

                                                                                                      Robby and Jaime Bray
