Instilling martial arts and combat sports in children from a young age is not teaching them violence.. is giving them tools for everyday life and the future.
🥋🙏
It's to give them security, because a child who knows how to defend themselves walks more firmly.
It's to discipline them, because they learn respect and self-control come first.
It's giving them physical ability, reflexes and strength, because an active body is a healthy body.
And it's to give them judgement, to know when to act... and when not🙏🙏
In adolescence, when impulses, social pressure or conflicts appear, having self-defense skills can make all the difference.
Not to hurt... but to protect oneself🙏🥷

Martial arts doesn't make kids more aggressive , it makes them more aware, more focused... and stronger inside and out.

Never too young to learn life/martial arts skills 🙏🥷🙏

The first student of the week certificate issued in 2026! This young man had a video sent to me of him practicing his newly learned pattern ( chon Ji ) on a snow day instead of going out and enjoying the snow. His enthusiasm and passion already is infectious. Well done Raf

My physical copies have made it from the US!! Looks epic and the quality is consistently second to none. Being a member of the maniacs team as international advisor and fb admin is brilliant and being published twice now AND appearing on the cover of issue #3 is still quite surreal.

Super proud of making the front cover and having my article published. I have been in martial arts since I was a young boy, back then studying Lau Gar Kung Fu. Spent years buying magazines and reading about other martial artists.

Also have inside this issue in addition to my article , my interview.
