Dojo – The Fight Smart Striking – Week 4 ft 5

Trav,

I’m an old guy (62) that decided to stick with your striking program. I practice what I see in your videos when I go to the gym. You make me laugh and you are passionate about what you do. I also like the legal aspects you talk to us about, for instance when you told us to try and avoid a fight in the first place and get the spectators on your side. You’re helping old farts like me to kick ass.  Thanks man!

Hi Trav, I just wanted to tell you how much I am enjoying your courses. I have been following the Striking Dojo for the past two months and I think I’m making great progress.

This is the best martial arts instruction that I’ve ever come across.

I bought the Head Movement mp3 a while back and I work on it a couple of times per week. I also have the Leg Locks course, but I’ve not yet had much time to really get onto it yet, although I’m very much looking forward to it.

I am completely new to all of this; I haven’t been in a street fight since I was a kid, which I lost horribly.  Although I played ice hockey for 25 years, I tended to avoid the fighting part of it.  I had a couple of bigger boys to look after me :-D.  I’m really having fun learning the basics of striking and movement.

I wanted to move it up a notch and so I purchased the full Head Movement and Fighting Bigger People courses. I was very tempted to buy the Fighting Multiple Attackers as well, especially for the clinch and ground fighting, but unfortunately my credit card is now maxed out :-).  Hopefully I’ll be able to help you with your taxes next year:-)

I’m just training at home alone at the moment but my 12 year old son is starting to show an interest, so I’ve been showing him a couple of moves.

Thanks so much for all your help. I love your coaching style and you never fail to make me laugh.

Cheers

Trav, I just wanted to say Thank You for putting together your site/business. I’m turning 44 years old this year. I’ve never been in a fight, yet something inside of me has always made me wonder how I’d do. I started Muay Thai classes on May 1st this year. When I started, I was so pleasantly surprised at these fighters/athletes! They were motivating, encouraging, helpful and wonderful people and they made it a very positive environment! I’ve also started working out a gym lifting weights. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Along with all that, I watch your videos nearly every day for education and motivation; and I enjoy your humor as well!

I have a wonderful marriage, family, home, business, vehicles, vacations…you name it. I thought all those things were what I needed to be successful and happy life, but I never truly felt complete. Learning how to fight and getting into great physical shape has made me look at life in a whole new way! I’m getting more confident, I’m feeling better and I’m sleeping better. I’m dialing in on healthy eating and learning about nutrition. My outlook on life is so bright right now! And to you, I just wanted you to know you are a big part of that. Thank you!

Kind regards,

Shawn

Trav,
I may have told you I began looking at how to protect my wife and youngest daughter in public after watching how 4 punks attacked an out-of-town defenseless couple. The whole program is something as husbands we should want to watch and prepare to use to defend our families and ourselves. It can happen out of nowhere and we should be able to respond as if it is second nature. You have put together a complete package for offence and defense. I feel more confident, hopefully I won’t hit like a girl! Each day I watch and add something new…point of attack, fight angles, blocking kicks, Joe Frazier moves, dipping, adjusting, backing up, etc. If someone like me can learn your fight techniques, anyone can. My best weapon is if someone looks at me and thinks I’m too old to fight!

~keep feeding your family and us on your FIGHTSMART program!

Hey Trav,

I just wanted to thank you again for the suggestions you had for us. Since we started working on your suggestions, the boy you helped us with has won 1st place in his division at two tournaments. None of his matches were even close. At the last one, he was challenged to fight a second-degree black belt and he is a green belt. He overwhelmed the kid and spent most of his time chasing him around the ring. At both tournaments he was warned by refs that he was too aggressive and was using too much power! That makes me especially happy ? He’s still more of a brawler than a boxer, but it’s working for him for now.

Cody’s parents are ecstatic to see their son go from an uncoordinated weakling to a competitive kickboxer in two years! He still has a long way to go, but he’s cleaning up the 15-17 year-old division in the state. So, thank you, my friend. I hope your business is going strong.

Dear Trav,

Thank you for your excellent products. I already purchased your Head Movement and Striking Dojo programs and I absolutely love them. They coincide perfectly with the coaching that I’m getting from my professional trainers. They are truly well put together, easy to follow, and excellent programs that inter-mingle perfectly with my current training. They are excellent at sharpening my skills significantly! It’s great to be able to watch the videos and listen to them when I’m sitting comfortably in my home; then I rehearse and visualize the movements in my mind over and over, then I put them to use at the gym. Your videos have significantly boosted my skills in many ways. Thank you.
