 Join us sunday May 17th at 6 pm pacific time as we discuss a touchy subject..."when does discipline in the martial arts turn into abuse'? Its a difficult subject to pin down,because context changes the meaning between 'discipline' and 'abuse'. As martial artists we know of the 'pushup consequence'....act innapropriately or disregard a rule, and a teacher would sometimes drop a student for 10 or 20 pushups as a 'wakeup call'....but if the teacher singles out a student for pushups, publicly berates them for the tiniest of infractions, or even withholds rank promotion for unspecified reasons or reasons that have no merit, that is considered abuse.  Many people call it "old school", but where is the line drawn between 'old school' and emotional/mental/physical abuse? Let's hear your thoughts, give us a call at (347) 677-0699

Sunday May 3rd, 2015. 6:00 pm Pacific Time. (Full bio http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rocky_Twitchell_SR.) With a background in various arts, in Rocky R. Twitchell's early years he studied under a Savate Instructor named Shane Milone'.Taking Rogh & Tumble Savate to stop bieng picked on by bullies at High School was his main reason for taking the lessons given by Shane Milone', but those Savate lessons would be the foundation for many other Instructors in the years to come. Once Rocky learned a few concepts from the Art of Savate, (basically just stand up to the bullies) they would eventully leave him alone. By his Junior year in High School he had the confidence to stand up for himself and he had the confidence to stand up for others if they were picked on by bullies. Portola High School, located in Portola CA also had boxing during Physical Education once a year and his skills from Savate plus the boxing from P.E., planted a seed in his mind that would slowly grow to training along side World Boxing

The Caregiver   When a loved one becomes chronically or terminally ill, it is the primary caregiver that often becomes the silent sufferer,  experiencing a sense of exhaustion,  frustration, hopelessness and despair and what has been called "caregiver burn-out".     What IF there was a way to give a caregiver the ability to provide Reiki for themselves and their sick, injured  or dying loved one?  It has been documented that Reiki can provide emotional and mental calm, stress reduction, and physical comfort (pain reduction).    Reiki can therefor support both the primary caregivers who care for their loved one and the chronically or terminally ill patient.  Having the ability to give Reiki to those who are chronically or terminally ill can empower the caregiver and relieve them of the feeling of helplessness which can be very common in such situations.  Show sponsored by Violet Rose Reiki at www.violetrosereiki.com  and  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Reiki-Ward/115756561854725
