MAJOR Stress Relief...

This alone makes Martial Arts worth it to so many people who don't have an outlet for their stress. When stress is suddenly gone from your life, it leaves space inside of you for good feelings to come.

Dear Friend,
My name is E. Sebastian Watters, and karate is my life.
Now, I know that a lot of people think Adult Martial Arts is only about learning how to fight... and defend yourself...
But the truth is, It's So Much More.
...It's really a way of life.
It's about connecting to your inner strength, and accomplishing goals you never thought you could. It's about respecting your body and mind.
As you train & connect to your inner strength...
You feel a boundless inner strength... strength that you might not even see in yourself right now.
You discover how to stay calm, even when everything around is hectic, and unstable.
And you develop the confidence to tackle any challenge - and succeed - because through mastering Karate and other Martial Arts you see that you can do anything you set your mind to.
And the way karate helps you connect to your "chi" is through the techniques of the Martial Arts.
Techniques that give you a GREAT workout, too.
See, your whole body is moving in new ways, every class.
You'll move your legs in ways you never have with
the different kicks and stances you learn.
You'll move your arms in new ways as you learn to strike,
block, and hold special stances.
And because it engages your whole body – extra weight
slips right off of you.
All in all, it's a life-changing experience.
And I believe in it so much that I've dedicated my life to
bringing Adult Martial Arts to as many people as possible.
It's been my journey to show people how to defend
themselves, as well as how to connect to the inner peace
and calm that's there in all of us...
Sometimes we just don't see it.
So few people realize that the answers to so many of
their questions and problems are right here.
...It relieves tension and stress.
...It relieves back, neck, and other body pain from the relaxing stretching, and constant
movement of the body.
And it strengthens your spirit as you tackle challenge after challenge – always succeeding.
Always coming out on top.
There's a reason it's been around so long: It works.
And now, I'd like the opportunity to bring it to you, too.
*Results may vary. Exercise and proper diet are necessary to achieve and maintain weight loss and muscle definition. Please consult with a physician before beginning any exercise program.
“For the first time in my life, I have a flat, toned stomach!”
This is crazy... Even when I let my stomach hang out – I still see the muscles! I didn't even have a stomach like this in my teen years – or in my 20s.
When we go to the beach... Or when I go for a jog and wear a sports bra... I feel GOOD. No more feeling self-conscious or worried about how I look. I just feel great, and energized.
I've honestly never felt better!
Stacie Gray
“I stood up to a 'tough guy' at
the club – and he backed down!”
Just wanted to let you know the other day I was at the club, and accidentally bumped into this guy. He must've been a little “off” or something because he started yelling and screaming calling me names. I looked him in the eyes and politely said, “Hey, I'm sorry for bumping you man. I'd rather not fight, but if we have to, let's go outside.” And I just looked him straight in the eyes
Normally I would've backed down. But after just a couple months of – I feel like I can defend myself. I'll never back down again.
James Dolan
“I don't get heated up over the little stuff anymore...”
One of the things we learn in class is not just how to control our bodies – but how to control our minds and emotions too.
I feel that I have an inner calm now. It's like nothing can shake me. I'm polite and courteous in situations where I used to sometimes be short with people. I smile genuinely at all of my customers. I'm more appreciative of my family and friends.
This is NOT just learning how to defend yourself. This is learning how to make your life even better. In every way.
Meagan Moore
Here are a few more of the life-changing
benefits you can expect from Adult Martial Arts.
You'll Feel Amazing!
Adult Martial Arts is a full body workout that helps you get in SHAPE.
Of course, when you eat right that makes the weight loss even faster. But either way, you're going to drop pounds if you have any pounds to drop.
Having FUN...
This isn't like running on a treadmill for hours and hours... You'll be learning something new and exciting... Accomplishing challenges you never thought you could... Growing in physical strength, and in mental and spiritual strength...
MAJOR Stress Relief...
Nothing relieves stress more than good, hard exercise. Add to that punching and kicking – and you're looking at the most powerful form of stress relief known to man!
This alone makes Adult Martial Arts worth it to so many people who don't have an outlet for their stress. When stress is suddenly gone from your life, it leaves space inside of you for good feelings to come.
Feeling like you're part of the family – right away...
Often after just one class people tell us how they feel like they've known everyone for years. That's
because we place a big emphasis on creating not just a great Martial Arts environment – but a family envi-
ronment. You'll feel like part of the family in no time. And you'll know you're among people who really care
about you and your success.
Knowing that you can defend yourself, in any situation...
No more feeling scared when you walk to your
car late at night. No more wondering what to
do if you were ever attacked.
You'll have the skills to defend yourself,
and get away. No matter where you are, you'll
feel safe and secure and confident. You'll
simply radiate confidence.
Feel confident in your ability to defend
yourself, and your loved ones. This confidence
alone scares away most attackers.
When they see how calm and cool you are –
they'll think twice. I've seen it happen countless
times.
Things that used to frustrate you will dissolve. And rather than getting angry – you'll simply keep your cool.
Parents find themselves more patient with their kids... Teachers find themselves more patient with their students... People who work with customers find themselves more focused and calm, even when the customer gets out of line...
See, Martial Arts is about the way we treat one another, and ourselves. The beautiful movements of self-defense are simply the tool we use to get you there.
“So what exactly is Adult Martial Arts?”
Technically, Adult Martial Arts is simply the art of punching and kicking. And preventing other people from punching and kicking you.
And most people think that's ALL it is.
They don't realize that the movements, the techniques, are only a tool. A tool used to connect you to yourself. A tool used to help you control your mind, your body, and your emotions even more.
The ultimate goal of Adult Martial Arts is to help you become more peaceful and balanced in your life. Because when people feel great and excited every day – they carry it on to others.
“Will I get hurt?”
Any physical activity can lead to injury – and Adult Martial Arts is no exception – but because we place such care in keeping you safe...
We hardly EVER see any injuries here.
We guide you through the perfect way to do each technique. That way you don't do it in a way that harms your body.
We also show you how to stretch properly – reducing your chances for injury even more.
And you go at your own pace. That way you don't force your body to do anything it isn't capable of.
Students who pick up on Adult Martial Arts quickly are just as valued as the ones who need to slow down, and learn at a different pace.
“Will this be really hard on my body? And is it violent?”
People who do Adult Martial Arts are never the ones to start fights. They're the ones who do everything in their power to avoid fights.
But if a fight has to happen, they're ready to defend themselves.
So no, Adult Martial Arts is not violent.
As far as your body goes... The exercise involved may be tough for you at first. But you're welcome to go at your own pace. This isn't the army or anything! We're here to support you and see you succeed.
It may be a little hard on your body, but not so hard as to cause injuries. Just hard enough for a great, calorie-burning workout.
“Do I have to be athletic or flexible or anything?”
Not at all! In fact, many of our students are people who just never liked any other sports.They were never athletic before joining this class.
Now, though, they're in better shape than just about anyone else they know! They're lean, fit, and feeling great.
So if you're not athletic already – don't worry. We'll help you get there.
And finally... It's FUN!
I can't tell you how many times I've heard guys and gals say,
“This is one of the funnest things I've EVER done!”
Martial Arts is hard work... it's a tough workout... but beneath it all...
“It's so much fun, it's ADDICTIVE!”
*Results may vary. Exercise and proper diet are necessary to achieve and maintain weight loss and muscle definition. Please consult with a physician before beginning any exercise program.
“I had no idea what I was capable of... It's so much more than I thought.”
Okay, so for me Adult Martial Arts was hard at first. My body was NOT used to moving that way! Plus the closest to sports I ever came was cheerleading for a month in high school.
But now my body is honestly able to do things I never thought possible. I feel so flexible. And limber. And so full of energy! It's like I wake up and I just want to move, move, move and go do things! I have more energy for my kids, for my job, for my husband, for my friends, and for myself.
This is NOT just learning how to defend yourself. This is learning how to make your life even better. In every way. Do yourself a favor and try it! Seriously! Call me when your life completely changes, for the better.

Martial Arts:
The Martial Arts are codified systems and traditions of combat practices. They are practiced for a variety of reasons, including self-defense, competition, physical health and fitness, as well as mental, physical, and spiritual development.
The term martial art has become heavily associated with the fighting arts of eastern Asia, but was originally used in regard to the combat systems of Europe as early as the 1550s. An English fencing manual of 1639 used the term in reference specifically to the “Science and Art” of swordplay. The term is ultimately derived from Latin, and means “Arts of Mars,” where Mars is the Roman god of war. Some Martial Arts are confsidered 'traditional' and are tied to an ethnic, cultural or religious background, while others are modern systems developed either by a founder or an association.
