Ok im doing winsor pilates, the 20-minute workout and sometimes the hour workout. i just wanted to know if it actually does what it says. tell me if you got results and how long it took you!

I have been taking Kung Fu lessons for 2 weeks so far, with a total of 5 visits of one hour long sessions. I have been taught by two different people, with most, if not all, attention on me due to the fact i’m normally the only person there. This can be seen as a great opportunity, but there are some underlying problems that have left me treading water. The two teachers have been giving me different versions of moves being taught. For instance, i’ve been learning jab-cross(quick jab with a straight punch shortly after) and each teacher adds their own steps to the mix; one tells me to thrust with off my back leg while I straight punch, the other doesn’t mention it. Today even, an extra step was added to my roundhouse kick becuase ‘the test-giver might want that version’. I have a lot of trouble remebering sequences. Once I learn a certain sequence, do it many times and then have to revise, I get thrown completely off. I know i’ll have to deal with additions to sequences, but it doesn’t seem right when it’s being changed day to day, especially when they say i’ve got it down. Lastly, i’ve been schedualed to take a test for my yellow belt. It seems very early for that, and I cannot advance to other classes if I don’t pass this. I will have do start with a tai chi warm up called 5 element stretch. I don’t even remeber a majority of the warm up, and they don’t have any resouces to provide me with to study, I have to do it by memory(problem for me). I’d just like some suggestions. Is this a normal approach to teaching students in martial arts? Thank you.

KARATE CLASS SHOULD ALWAYS BE THIS EXCITING!

Karate class begins and students come together to practice their blocks and stances––from crescent kicks to front kicks to tuck roll stands. Dynamic black-and-white artwork of children bowing, kicking and sailing through the air contrasts with their brilliantly colored karate belts in this rhythmic read-aloud that explores the action and philosophy of karate.

I take taekwondo, and these two girls want to fight me at the same time tomorrow in 4th hour. I don’t know how in the world i’m going to do that though!!! I was thinking a jump front kick and hit both of them then backfist them both then a punch. But the prob. with that is 2 things they’d get some good hits in and I have a sprained knee on my good leg and a sprained ankle on the other!!

Please help!!

For years now I’ve been hearing that mediation for even two minutes does more good than an hour of deep sleep.

I’d like to know, just exactly how do I accomplish this.
First steps, how to clear thoughts, etc….. any information would be nice. thank you and have a good life.
