May 12 Updates

Good Morning!

Did you know that TOO much work results in overall inefficiency. Now more than ever, we need to take a little time for ourselves - and RKMSF is the best therapy...where else can you end your workday by hitting someone, having them get back up and ask you to do it again! Talk about cathartic! Here is an interesting article...do you see yourself here? I do!

Escapes, Evasions and Counters II

I received this note from Master Dale today about his June 7th Seminar. Looks like another action packed two hours! Don't forget to sign up early! Registration sheet is on the white board in the lobby!

Kris,
The June 7th seminar will once again, be chock-full of 'new and different' ways to look at combative problem solving.

Escapes, Evasions and Counters II - will explore the following - and more!

  • Stealing the bad guy's advantage: or Why haven't we practiced this before? This will be half the session.
  • Protecting the 3rd Person (Executive Protection techniques)
  • More ways to use the Helping Hand
  • Breaking capture while walking

These are 4 subject areas that are best learned by doing. These are low in conceptual content and high in practice effort. This seminar will be one where we are in constant motion for nearly the entire time. Expect numerous lessons and variations that will teach each person how to solve problems they may not have faced in the classroom before.

This will be fun!
Master Dale
