A huge THANK YOU to Kiski Area North Primary, their students, teachers, and Teresa (PTA) for inviting us back to our 3rd Fitness Friday!
I am always very humbled to take part in these events and love the opportunity/responsibility of introducing Martial Arts to all people - especially kiddos!
I really believe that there is truly no better activity for PEOPLE than Martial Arts.
When done/taught correctly - Martial Arts not only teach self defense and physically fitness - they teach humility, self awareness, discipline, respect, and self reliance
And here’s a SPOILER ALERT….it DOESN’T MATTER what SYSTEM or STYLE you pick! Whether is Taekwondo, Karate, Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Judo, or Jiu Jitsu - every style has the same benefits when taught/practiced correctly
Here are some tips to getting started:
1. Find the RIGHT INSTRUCTOR
2. Make sure it’s the RIGHT PLACE
3. Don’t wait - get KICKIN (or punching….or body slamming!)
The AK Valley and greater Pittsburgh Area has a tremendous amount of talented instructors/coaches to help you along the way - TAKE ADVANTAGE of them!
I’ve tagged some recommendations in the feed!
OSU 💪🙏✊
