August 14, 2019 Hit the Mark 2
Achievement WithOut Heart, Is Not Acceptable
Patrons can Access Early. Free Public Release is August 14, 2019 at 7:30 am
How many times have you had a goal, or behavior, that you did because someone in authority told you that was what you should be ‘aiming at’ or ‘shooting for’. It was their target, for you.
This is a ‘Dutiful Pursuit’ and vastly better than having a poor/no target. But eventually, the target will erode, if something doesn’t change.
Confucius knew this is 500 BC. What has to happen for you to become connected with a target? Make it your own….

August 13, 2019 Hit The Mark Pt 1 - Position - Strength - Your Shot
Aim Right - Be Strong Enough to Hit It - Release
Archery as an Assessment of Character. It has implications to your martial art testing and pursuits.
Do You align Yourself Properly toward your targets?
Do You have the Strength to carry through?
“To begin in a sound way is a matter of wisdom (zhi*). To carry a process through to the end is a matter of sagacity (sheng).
In the beginning, Wisdom is like skill.
Then Sagacity is like strength [in carrying through].
In discharging an arrow from a hundred paces out, arriving at the target area is a matter of strength. As for whether or not the arrow “hits the mark” (zhong), this is not a matter of strength.”

March 10, 2019 Defense of Zumba Strong
Kfp 172 Defense of Zumba Strong
Friends Like Ando Mierzwa made an excellent argument on the role that a franchise martial arts studio can make. I listened to a Defense of Combat Sport from friend Iain Abernethy. After I saw an ad for Martial Arts to Music with Zumba Strong, I didn’t know if I could launch a Defense, but I did. It was messy, but done.
