a few hours of krav maga will turn a sinner and a saint into two very equal creatures. Getting your ass kicked is one of the fastest ways to equality and brotherhood!!!

In our practice we have something of a single minded way. There is a saying, " Even if the sun should rise in West the sage has only one way" (zen mind beginners mind/ suzuki). But this does not mean we are practicing patterns of fixed repetitions. What we mean by this is that our 'single minded way' is to have no fixed way. It is what the great Bruce Lee called 'the way that is no way.' Our way is to keep a beginners mind at all times. This is a mind that is empty,open and ready to adapt and improvise based on everyday circumstances.

As we practice our way, we will find ourselves somewhere on a continuum. One end of this continuum could be where we find that our thinking, speaking, and actions, in other words, our practice is a pattern of fixed repetitions. The other end could be where we find that our thinking, speaking, and actions, in other words our practice arises naturally and spontaneously from every day circumstances. There is no need to be bothered about where one is on this continuum. I believe, if one continues to practice with an instructor whose practice does arise naturally and spontaneously from everyday circumstances,our movement will progress to complete freedom.

Work very hard to be an affirmative type. Always remember, the word 'YES' is a word that encourages creativity. The word ' no' stops all creative activity. Work hard at saying "YES" to yourself, to your children and to your friends.

We do not need to have some special feeling ; some good feeling about our training. We just do what we do. We practice and we go home. This is our way. We are not practicing to learn about a particular way. We are not practicing to acquire a certain feeling. We are practicing to study ourselves. We need a 'way' but that way is not ourselves. Myway of practice is a means to discovering who i am. We have a teacher who shows us the way to ourselves. The moment we have a teacher, we should begin to leave that teacher and become independent. Our teacher, if wise, will not allow us to become 'attached' to him/her. A true teacher will tell us, " Do not follow me."

in both religion and the martial arts, when we believe in a particular religion or martial art, our thinking becomes more and more like a sharp angle pointing away from ourselves. In our way the angle is always toward ourselves.

"once we understand that the cause of conflict is some fixed belief or one-sided idea, we will be able to find meaning and usefulness in various practices without becoming trapped by any of them. Those who do not understand this will be caught in some particular way. They are those who will say, " This is THE way !! This is the perfect martial art. This is OUR way. The rest of the ways are not perfect. This is the best way." This is a big mistake. There is no particular way in true practice. Each of us should find our own way, and each of us should know what kind of practice we are doing right now. When we know the advantages AND disadvantages of some special practice, we can practice that special way without danger of being trapped. If we have a one-sided mindset, we will ignore the useless part of the practice and only emphasize the useful."
(from Zen Mind Beginners Mind/ Suzuki)

Rick Seid continues to amaze me with his speed, fluidity and broad range of concepts and principles which he brings to each krav maga ( close combat) class. Rick has the gift of packing into one hour enough material for one to practice for the next month. Each class adds new material but always builds on the concepts and principles taught in the previous class(es). We invite you to join us on Sunday, monday and wednesday for class.
