Gradings for kickboxing

I have just about completed the grading system for our kickboxing classes now, so if you have always wanted to be a black belt, but aren't intereted in learning mind numbing patterns, then now is your time.

There will be a grading held every 3 months, and you will be graded on fitness, strength, technique as well as self discipline. The syllabus will contain knees, elbows, kicks, punches, and defence techniques. As you progress through the syllabus you will be required to spar and this will become part of your grading.

Cost's will remain the same and you will require a sparring kit which you can purchase from Edge 1st. There will be new club t'shirts available shortly and gradings will cost $45.00 for your certificate and arm band.

This will be a truly exciting stage in the development of E1 Hybrid Fighting Arts.

The power of gratitude.

Did you know that there is an effective and an ineffective way to express gratitude?

Unfortunately, the ineffective way is far more common.
It is sort of the default form of gratitude that most people fall into. I was stuck here for a really long time until I found a far more powerful way to practice gratitude, one that moved me into perfect alignment with abundance and greatly accelerated the Law of Attraction.

First, let me talk about the ineffective way to express gratitude. This is gratitude that you express that is related to what is happening in your life right now.

It is closely related to the gratitude and appreciation we learn to express as children (i.e. to say thanks) and that is probably why it is often the default and why so many people get stuck here.

Ineffective gratitude includes things such as:
* your health
* your relationships
* your material posessions
* your friends and family
* a nice vacation

I am not saying that there is anything wrong with this form of gratitude. All I am saying is that it is not nearly as powerful as what I am about to show you.

Often the problem with the above form of gratitude is that it comes from a place of lack. If you have ever expressed gratitude while thinking "at least... I am healthy, or at least I have a great family" then you know what I mean.

This form of gratitude is extremely week because it is based on the present circumstances. In other words, this form of gratitude is conditional. It makes it sound that you are grateful "only if you have good health, a great relationship, etc."

Unfortunately, conditional gratitude fails to activate the law of attraction. The universe does not respond to conditional requests.

The second form of gratitude is complete in that it is a celebration of life itself, for all the experiences you are having. One other key difference is this.
Effective gratitude comes from an underlying attitude vs. a temporary focus on one item or thing to be grateful for.

With practice, this holistic form of gratitude can become second nature. When it does, the law of attraction will flow far more easily into your life.

The more powerful form of gratitude includes items such as:

* your life
* this awesome planet
* for being who you are
* for future events
* for problems, challenges, and hardships
* for your mistakes
* for your mind
* for your freedom

In other words, you become grateful for this amazing journey of your life regardless of what happens and where it takes you because you know that it is just right for you and that everything is happening for a reason.

When you are expressing effective gratitude, fear and loss disappear. There is no focus on any lack and when you reach this state, that is when abundance can truly start flowing into your life.

Being grateful for what you have in your life (your health, relationships, etc.) has its place. But when you start feeling truly grateful for everything that is happening in your life and open your heart, you will be amazed at how quickly the universe will start to answer.

So, start creating these feelings now, even in the most unlikely or unpleasant circumstances and notice how you begin to attract whatever you focus on into your life.

Imagine what kayaking around Magnetic Island would feel like, or how about mountain biking through Paluma National Park.

It is not a Full on, knock em dead type race, it is aimed at entry level competitors, though that doesn't mean it will be easy.

The total race will be 12k  kayak, 23k mountain bike, 6 k beach run.

 I have designed a training program to prepare us for the race, yes I will be competing.

The program will be.

3 x 1 hour sessions (1 early morn) ( 1 afternoon ) ( 1 weekend ) obviously these will be 1 kayak, 1 cycle, 1 run.

There are only 8 spots available on the team and 2 are taken already, so if you are interested you need to register now.

A deposit of $155.00 will secure your spot, ( non refundable) and a direct debit of $40.00 per week. This is in addition to any other training you are already doing with us.

This will include your entry, a singlet and a towel and water bottle.

Obviously travel will be extra, we may hire a bus or fly, this is open to the team to decide.

I encourage you to commit to this, I guarantee it will change your life as well as giving you a level of fitness that will be hard to beat.

Go on, make 2010 the year you conquered your fear and became the best you could be.
