I would like to announce to readers of my blog that I have developed a new program that I will implement in all of my martial arts and fitness classes for kids and adults in January 2014 called “Awaken the Warrior Within.” This is a life skills program that will change your life and teach you how to live your life like a lion and not a lamb. It will teach you how to accomplish your goals and conquer your fears.
Warriors throughout history have conquered and accomplished the impossible by developing high self esteem, courage, mental toughness and self discipline. I believe that every human being has the capability to develop a warriors mindset and awaken the warrior within. Yet, most people never achieve their goal or their dreams. Teaching martial arts and fitness for almost 16 years in Doral I witnessed very talented and determined people not achieve their goals and give up.
This program was developed because of my negative experience as a child being an underachiever in sports, academics and giving up and quitting every thing I tried to accomplish. I had low self esteem and was the last one picked in physical education class. I’m sure that if I would have awaken the warrior within I would have accomplished so much more. Yet, as an adult I have accomplished more than most athletes and high academic achievers in high school. I was a U.S. Marine Corps Sergeant, a Corrections Officer, a competitive bodybuilder, certified as an instructor in numerous fitness modalities, Krav Maga, Kung Fu, Muay Thai Kickboxing, Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do and I am studying Gracie Jiu Jitsu. I have competed in numerous sports (Bodybuilding, different martial arts, 5K run, and Dragon Boat racing.) I run one of the most recognized and successful martial arts centers in Florida. This year alone I was featured in 18 TV shows. I thank God for giving me the wisdom and knowledge to succeed by learning to awaken the warrior within me.
I believe that I am blessed to be a blessing and to succeed you must help others succeed. So, Awaken the Warrior Within Life Skills program was born. In this program I took the positive characteristics of 12 ancient and modern warriors, 12 martial arts warriors, 12 fitness warriors and 12 warrior generals. This is a one year program introducing each week an ancient or modern warrior, a martial arts warrior, a fitness warrior and a warrior general each month.
In this article I want to introduce to you the 12 ancient or modern warriors and the attribute I use.
1. Knights: Loyalty
2. Gladiators: Champions. Going against the norm
3. IDF (Israeli Defense Force): Defying the Odds
4. Apaches: Fearless
5. Spartans: Determination/Tenacity
6. Samurai: Balance
7. U.S Special Forces (SEAL’s, Green Berets): Highly trained, attention to details
8. Ancient Chinese Warriors (Kung Fu Fighters) Equality
9. Zulu Tribe: Unity/Brotherhood
10. SWAT (law enforcement) Serving Others
11. United States Marine Corps: Self Confidence
12.Crusaders: Faith
In 2012 I developed “The Art of Fighting without Fighting Anti-Bullying” program. This year I filmed “The Art of Fighting without Fighting Anti-Bullying” 2 DVD set. It should be ready for sale before the end of the year. In 2014 will unleash “Awaken the Warrior Within Life Skills” program.
