Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
"Yoga & the Martial Way" simultaneously helps Jiu-Jitsu athletes develop the mobility for the art of "rolling," while growing into increasingly capable, heart-centered, martial warriors. Filled with Yoga sequences, physiology, and psycho-spiritual insights, "Yoga & the Martial Way" immediately fosters positive transformation in the art of Jiu-Jitsu for anyone who embraces it. Perfect for veteran martial artists and newcomers alike, this book and additional online courses, are a unique experience in the field of martial arts as a path to awakening. Training for life; the path of the ultimate warrior, in all traditional Jiu-Jitsu arts teachings, is not just the path of the fighter. It is a path of service, love and protection for our community. It demands us to access the deeper qualities of the warrior: focus, energy, perseverance and dedication to a cause bigger than ourselves. This heart, this spirit, is the essence of the internal power of the practitioner. It is foundational for reaching peak performance, recovering from an injury or building resilience to deal with the inherent challenges of life. This is built step-by-step during a lifetime of training as we integrate our art into every dimension of our life and well-being. Be assured Body-Mindfulness needs to be a sincere task. To expand your Jiu-Jitsu repertoire is to become elastically playful. It involves bringing a new creative attitude, not only to your "rolling," but also to simple everyday activities. It is never too late to begin your "life training."In conclusion, giving attention to your body is practically important and, combined with Mindfulness, these will be the best tools to manage your Jiu-Jitsu training. The fruits of bringing Body-Mindfulness into a martial arts practice and your life are a new 'aliveness', an enthusiastic resilient energy and a generous self-care attitude. Tools we all need for a long and healthy life. No other system is better than Yoga to become entwined in this marriage between martial art, specifically BJJ and the beautiful, sexy, alluring and intoxicating practice of Yoga. It's a marriage made in heaven.If your goal is to become a complete martial athlete, especially in BJJ, then leaving the ancient practice of Yoga out of your training regimen is non-negotiable, there is no room to debate it. It's a must if you must step up your game. There is no other exercise or system out there that addresses and develops as many mental and physical attributes as Yoga does. Rishi Eric is an author, trainer and gifted therapist. He is the creator of the creator of the YogiPreneur Mastery Coaching Program, Yoga for the Jiu-Jitsu Athlete & Movement & Mobility for the Martial Warrior Online Courses. An existential health crisis left him with a renewed sense of purpose and vision. He leads training and seminars on a variety of health, martial arts, and spiritual related topics. He is also a talented artist working primarily in oil, portraying this beautiful life through spiritual deities.

Japanese Yog
Author: H. E. Davey
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780615542393
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Based on the eclectic Western-Eastern teachings of Nakamura Tempu Sensei, this step-by-step introduction to Japanese yoga (Shin-shin-toitsu-do) presents stretching, healing, and meditation exercises designed for mind/body integration. It is the first book in English to detail the life and teachings of Mr. Nakamura. In Japanese yoga, which is based on mind and body unification principles, the ultimate goal is enhanced concentration, calmness, and willpower for a longer, healthier, and fuller life. H. E. Davey Sensei also shows how Japanese yoga relates to various classical Japanese arts as part of a tradition of spiritual practice with spiritual and aesthetic roots in India, Japan, and the West. Developed by Nakamura Tempu Sensei in the early 1900s from Indian Raja yoga, Japanese martial arts and meditation practices, as well as Western medicine and psychotherapy, Japanese yoga offers a new approach to experienced yoga students and a natural methodology that newcomers will find easy to learn. After a brief history of Shin-shin-toitsu-do, H. E. Davey Sensei presents Mr. Nakamura's Four Basic Principles to Unify Mind and Body. These principles relate the meditative experience to the movement of everyday living and thus make it a "dynamic meditation." Each of the Four Basic Principles is illustrated with step-by-step explanations of practical experiments. Readers are then introduced to different forms of seated and moving meditation, health exercises, and self-healing arts. All these are linked back to the Four Basic Principles and can enhance performance in art, music, business, sports, and other activities. Readers learn to use Japanese yoga techniques throughout the day, without having to sit on the floor or seek out a quiet space. Included at the end of the book are simple but effective stretching exercises, information about ongoing practice, and a glossary and reference section. Amply illustrated and cogently presented, "Japanese Yoga: The Way of Dynamic Meditation" belongs on every mind/body/spirit reading list.

Meditation and the Martial Arts
Author: Michael L. Raposa
Publisher: University of Virginia Press
ISBN: 9780813924595
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
The relationship between meditation and the martial arts is a multifaceted one: meditation is one of the practices in which martial artists engage in order to prepare for combat, while the physical exercises constituting much of the discipline of the martial arts might well be considered meditative practices. Michael Raposa, himself a martial arts practitioner, suggests there is a sense in which meditation may in turn be considered a form of combat, citing a variety of spiritual disciplines that are not strictly classified as "martial arts" yet that employ the heavy use of martial images and categories as part of their self-description. Raposa, in this extraordinary alloy of meditation manual, historical synthesis, and spiritual guide, provides a fascinating approach to understanding the connection between martial arts and spirituality in such diverse disciplines as Japanese aikido, Chinese tai chi chuan, Hindu yoga, Christian asceticism, Zen Buddhism, and Islamic jihad. What happens when spiritual discipline is appropriated for exercises meant for health or recreation? How might prayer, meditation, and ritual be understood as martial activities? What is the nature of conflict, and who is the enemy? These are some of the questions Raposa raises and responds to in Meditation and the Martial Arts, his rumination on the martial arts as meditative practice and meditation as a martial discipline.

Kicking and Screaming
Author: Melanie D Gibson
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1647420296
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Melanie Gibson was an independent woman with a good job, multiple college degrees, and a condo in the trendy part of town. She also had a few mental illnesses, a minor substance abuse problem, and rotten relationship skills. She was a high-functioning crazy who needed a good kick in the pants, literally and metaphorically. In early 2013, as a last desperate means to save her sanity, Melanie turned to a nearly forgotten childhood activity: the Korean martial art of taekwondo. As if the universe were listening, she discovered her West Texas childhood taekwondo instructors’ Grandmaster operated a taekwondo school a few miles from her home in Fort Worth, Texas—and she decided to start her training over as a white belt. In taekwondo, Melanie felt like she had a fresh start in more ways than one. She found an inner peace she’d never known before, a sense of community, a newfound confidence, and a positive outlook on life. The kicking and screaming she was doing in class quieted the long-term kicking and screaming in her mind. Funny and frank, Kicking and Screaming: A Memoir of Madness and Martial Arts is the story of Melanie’s life-changing journey from troubled, lost soul to confident taekwondo black belt.

Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Follow former five-time USA National Karate Champion, Dr. Vito Rallo, as he takes you behind the veil of the martial arts rituals and reveals the closely guarded secret known only to the masters about the real power-source of the arts! Trained by the best Japanese instructors dispatched to America in the mid-60s, Vito Rallo rose to be among the best of the best in the world of martial arts. He owned and operated his own dojos (schools). He taught karate in universities, mentored scores of other karate instructors and professional athletes, coached corporate business executives, and trained law enforcement agencies in martial arts skills. A Born-Again Christian for many years now, former expert sensei, Vito Rallo steps out of the darkness of dimly-lit dojos, colored belts, gis, and barefooted martial arts devotees to expose the hidden demonic spiritual dangers of martial arts and yoga. The former karate master explains why a sprained ankle, loose tooth, bodily bruise, or bruised ego are the least of concerns for martial arts practitioners! THE FACT IS: WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW AND CAN'T SEE CAN HURT YOU! Among the truths Vito Rallo uncovers in this easy to read and understand book are: The true origins of the martial arts. The clear and proven connection between yoga and the martial arts, and their occult-entangled roots. The hidden demonic forces behind these Eastern religion-based arts that empower the more advanced practitioners with near supernatural abilities. The history of the introduction of the martial arts and the intertwined practice of yoga in the West following WWII through returning indoctrinated soldiers. The promotion and glorification of these ancient fighting arts by Hollywood and television programmers as it came of age. The spiritual devastation martial arts and yoga wreak in the lives of individuals, Christians, and Christian churches. The many reasons why martial arts and yoga are in no way compatible with genuine Biblical Christianity. Biblical advice to current practitioners and those considering becoming involved. Author Vito Rallo writes with satire and seriousness in presenting knowledge and understanding on the topic of this volume gained from over three decades of experience as an advanced level karate instructor and competitor. No longer involved in the martial arts, he shares his inspiring story of a radically changed life through faith in Christ with audiences across America. Originally from St. Louis, MO, Vito and his wife, Patricia, now reside in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina.
