Aren't you cute. Did I say I was upset THAT men were discussing this matter? No. I did not. That most of the discussion had tends to slant towards the assumption that a woman is out-and-about engaging in risky behavior wearing clothing that men think invites them or is meant to attract their...

Good lord....

Sorry to necro-post ... a little. I tried to stomach my way through this thread - all posts of which have been made by men, the statistically larger group that rapes people - and I just can't help but sigh. There's a lot of (frankly) useless discussion here. Marc McYoung's repeated barking...

Life is good, life is badn and life is all the in-between. And I have certainly been living it. Still on this side of the dirt. Howzabout you?

Hey!

Boom.

Certified by EP2 here. To say it is similar to T'ai Chi is missing the point, really. It is not a martial art (Mars being the god of war) but a Paxtial art (Pax being a name for the goddess of peace). It is not designed to be a replacement for martial arts - it is a tool in the box when a softer...

To be fair ... there are still places in the world even today where people live in extreme seclusion.

T.O.D. just might just might be yanking your chain

If anyone who remembers me is still banging around ... my son Jared just passed his Eagle board of review!

Those are two different throws. ;)

Ed Parker Jr. is currently in very ill health and needs some help with medical expenses. All proceeds from this collection go directly to Ed for his use. Ed is a fantastic professional artist and has given back to the Kenpo community, martial arts world and is working tirelessly on Paxtial...

Call the council every dang day. I served in GS USA and it's pathetic what has come of GS around here. If you can't get someone from your Council to call, call National. A lot has changed since that post, hasn't it, Elder999? For those who remember me, my son Jared is Life Scout now, headed...

I was recently invited to a Damsel in Defense party. This is, apparently, like a Pampered Chef party but with pretty little weapons; kubaton, pepper spray, stun guns, whistles and other accoutrements. Sadly, the party is being rescheduled and I have not yet had the opportunity to view their...

Failure can be a great teacher. I try to not be very negative about the results but address their needs for improvement. If you can get footage and review it as a team that might be helpful. But I feel your pain.

Trying for some due diligence.

Self defense is a way of living. It is a choice of clothing and of what you carry - not just weapons, but what's in your wallet, purse, pocket. Self-defense is how you walk from one room to the other, how you answer your phone, how you step outside, how you drive. It is where you sit in a...

Hello all. My background is a Hwaragdo-based system. Last week, a Hapkido master and Kuk Sul Won master who relocated across the country referred some former students of his to me; apparently I'm the nearest instructor to them with a similar approach. I have noticed that their stances seem...

I think it's gt a lot more to do with relative strength, angle, application. I can tell you I've trained with guys who worked in machine shops and steel workers. My own husband works at a sand and gravel processing plant - where they take boulders and make them into sand. When he grabs my wrist...

Yes we can. Say more about that.

My daughter has a roommate who likes to party. Her teen years and young adult years are proving to be a long series of poor and dangerous choices. She has lucked out plenty of times. She likes to get wasted and or drunk to the point of mental oblivion or passing out. It worries me that my...

For as long as there are new martial artists coming into training, just learning the ropes.
