We have an update on Sensei John’s newest project – a unique, innovated kata for wellness and mindfulness he created for anyone regardless of prior marital arts experience. We think its best he tell you in his own words. (Reprinted, in part from his blog):
================
I completed my newest kata for wellness and mindfulness project. In it I introduce non-martial artists to two kata I specifically created for the project, the highly meditative “Ghost Hand Kata” (Yurei-Te Kata) ™ and the penultimate “1 Day / 1 Lifetime Kata” (Ichi-nichi- Issho Kata). ™ The manuscript is fully written and I am almost finished filming video.
The online school name that I am toying with is “Kata-Rx.” ™ Naturally, I’ll announce the opening, which will include full support on social media via a private FaceBook group, new You-Tube channel, Instagram and Twitter (before this I thought only birds tweeted). My target date is June 1st or as close to that as possible.
I promise a unique learning experience. You can get a sample from the teaser video below. Move over Yoga! Step aside Tai Chi! The gym, forget-about-it. The time has come for kata as wellness and mindfulness, and Sensei John is the innovator!
As you may know all martial arts and all kata start with – – – yup, you guessed it – – – BREATHING. So naturally the teaser gives a look into the first class in the curriculum, proper breathing. Take a look and enjoy the “Dojo” and the teaching “props.”
More to come!
