Karate CAN HELP KIDS WITH ADHD Impact ADHD states that karate may be more beneficial for kids with ADHD than team sports for a variety of reasons, including the fact that the practice has a big focus on personal growth. In team sports, kids find themselves comparing their abilities to the others. It can be especially detrimental to children with ADHD, Asperger Syndrome or similar challenges. During karate, or any other form of martial arts, these children not only get to release some of that energy, but they also get to focus on areas like social, emotional and intellectual development in a safe and constructive space.
Congrats to Carter on your gold belt! Keep up the good work!

Self defense tip...Look like a tough target Before an attacker even thinks about striking, your best self-defense is to look as strong and confident as possible. “People trying to attack or rob you generally are not looking for a lengthy encounter or a problem,” says Ross Cascio, expert-level instructor for Krav Maga Worldwide
Thank you Extreme Martial Arts and Ty Garrett so much for having me tonight to spar. Was getting pretty depressed... sparring and good friends fixed that right up. I also realized I gained too much weight and tonight revamped my desire to do better. I needed that, thank you!!

Self defense tip. .... Know how to defend a punch🤜 Punches can come from two ways: straight at you down the center or hooked from the outside. If a fist is coming straight on, the best self-defense is to redirect it away from your body with your hand. It’s harder to change the direction of a hooked punch👀, so your arm can act as a barrier to keep the fist from getting close.
Self defense tip 💪😎 Target a choker’s thumbs.... When you’re being choked, aim for the thumbs (not the fingers), because the thumbs are what give an attacker grip. Bring your thumb to the side of your index finger so it forms a C shape, then slip that hook as deep as you can through your attacker’s hands, says Cascio. “Pull down against their thumbs and back with your elbows,” he says. Kicking the person as you rip their hands off your neck will help you break free. 👀💯
[performing kata]⁣ brain: we need to talk⁣ me: ok⁣ brain: are we fighting someone?⁣ me: no⁣ brain: is someone fighting us?⁣ me: no⁣ brain: so... wtf are we doing?⁣ lungs & legs: we have questions too ⁣🤪💯
Make yourself hard to hold If an attacker comes from behind you and traps you in a “bear hug” with arms wrapped around your body, the key is to make yourself difficult to deal with so the person can’t carry you away. Think of how toddlers or dogs plop down when they don’t want to move, “You want to drop your weight and lower your base,” “Bend your knees and drop your butt so you become heavier and more difficult to move around.” Thrash from side to side while you do it to make your body harder to grip, and try to hit your attacker in the groin—one of the few places you’ll probably be able to reach if your arms are pinned down.
Self defense tip.... Flatten your foot to kick Your instinct might be to kick with your toes facing up, keeping your ankle neutral. But that position means you’re only hitting with the length and width of your five toes. Instead, flatten your foot so your shoelaces face the ceiling. “Putting that up presents my foot as a longer and flatter striking surface,” he says. For a groin kick (remember, breathing and breeding!), drive up and through.
Always Fight Back Whatever you do, don't believe the myth that if you don't fight back, your attacker will stop seeing you as a threat and back off. In every situation, even if you don't quite remember the right moves, fight back against your attacker. The only exception to fighting back is when you're running away from your attacker, in which case you should always try to run toward well-lighted areas and places where other people are around. Remember that your goal when fighting back is to injure your attacker, not just cause pain. You'll want to focus on key areas of the attacker's body, such as the groin, the feet, the eyes, and the throat, to quickly do the most damage.

My style?...You can call it the art of fighting without fighting. Bruce Lee believed real combat was spontaneous, and a martial artist cannot predict it, but only react to it, and a good martial artist should "be like water"—move fluidly without hesitation. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend. Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
You HAVE to check out Connie's Shirts and signs for all you personalization needs! She does great work, the prices are affordable, and she has outstanding customer service! She does amazing work. #supportlocalbusiness
self defense tip....Be aware of your environment👀 One of the reasons it’s so important to stand up straight with your shoulders back and head up is so that you can be aware of what’s going on around you. 💜If you see a potential danger, you can avoid it or be prepared to defend yourself.🤜 Stick to well-lit areas, 📵don’t get distracted scrolling through Instagram and look for exits or alternate paths.💡 MEDIA0.GIPHY.COM media0.giphy.com
The regular practice of kata is essential as it develops the proper body mechanic, help builds muscle memory, develops mindfulness and favors the adequate execution of breathing, but its purpose is actually the core of karate.
The Power of Affirmations💜 Today is a new day. Today is a day for you to begin creating a joyous, fulfilling life. Today is the day to begin to release all your limitations. Today is the day for you to learn the secrets of life. You can change your life for the better. You already have the tools within you to do so. These tools are your thoughts and your beliefs.💜
Self Defense tip.....Use Your Senses🤔 The best way to stay safe is to avoid a confrontation altogether. Criminals do not see all people as equally likely targets, they identify those who will give them the least trouble and the best chance to escape.👀 Consequently, your best self defence strategy is to not be an easy target. 💪Walk tall with good posture and be aware of your surroundings. Don’t wear🎧 headphones, your ears are a valuable resource in knowing what is going on around you especially after dark.💡 Keep your head up and watch where you are going. The sooner you can react to a potential situation the better off you will be.👊😎👍
Holding your fist tight with thumb supporting the fingers with make the punch stronger. Using the fist at a slight angle will add power.
