Old Man's Club




And just like that... The day's about done! 


I was catching up on all things PeaceWalker when I got a IM from a new subscriber. Brian's a vet just turning fifty. Sounded like he has his share of injuries. 

We had a good conversation back and forth for a minute or two. It was good to connect with him.

We got to 'know' one another because he liked our Ronin Krav Maga Facebook Page. When that happens, I try to thank everyone who liked the page and invite them to go through our Six Day Defense Home Study Course.

Some, like Brian write back. Sometimes a conversation and connection comes out of it. Sometimes not. 

In a world where we've automated and industrialized our relationships, it's good to know that there is a real person on the other side of your keyboard. 

And this community, facebook page, these emails and yes, the private membership too are all run by me personally. 

This isn't some corporation, agency, spammer or scammer...

I'm a real person and this is a real grass roots training organization. It all started out live in person. Yep, old school! 

I have an actual brick and mortar training academy in Grand Rapids, Michigan... 

I sharpened my teeth over the past 3+ decades travelling and teaching live in-person workshops and seminars all over this great country of ours. 

I started recording videos early... You know, back in the VHS days (yea! I'm that old!), then DVD's. 

Later, in 2008, inspired by Tim Ferriss's 4 hour work week, I started my PeaceWalker Blog and my first attempted at an online membership. 

Several fail attempts later that membership evolved into the PeaceWalker Private Membership site that was unleashed to the public in 2017. It took about 9 months *(before that) to build it and get it ready to release.

WHY DID I DO IT!?

Because I wanted to be able to reach and help more people build a Protector's Lifestyle. More confidence, clarity, skills to protect themselves and others... To live more powerfully. Have a better Life!


Anyway... Back to Brian

After hearing about Brian's injuries, I was telling him about the 'Over Forty 10x Training Course' I'm just finishing up. 

He sounded pretty excited about it.

I didn't want to come across as to 'salesy', so I didn't even tell him that the four areas we'd be covering are:

I. Injury Prevention
II. Injury Recovery
III. Peak Performance (In & Out of the gym)
VI. Gaining the Unfair Advantage

It's all about training smarter. 

I share my 40+ years of experience (holy f*k I'm THAT Old!?). 

The introduction to the program will be livestreamed... Well... Live! =) 

That part is no cost, but you'll have to register. I'll lay the foundation for good solid training. How I survived and thrived all of these years and am poised for what's next. 

OK, enough of my yappin'

If you are interested in the Over Forty 10x Program, reach out to me and I'll get you some info.

Keep going,

An Uncomfortable Situation

  Funny pic (and movie) about a not so funny situation… In training as in Life, it’s better to treat people with dignity and respect. However… What does that look like in the moment? Being that I’m teaching a Women’s Assault Prevention and Response Workshop this weekend - it’s probably a good time to talk about… Uncomfortable Situations Let’s talk about training at the academy for a minute… We run open co-ed classes at the local academy. What does that mean? Men and women train together, but we don’t stop there. People of different skill levels, backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations, careers, religious beliefs, political affiliations, ages, injuries, pre-existing conditions, life experience, training expectations etc. etc. train together! We ALL work together! Overall, I think it’s better this way. Of course sometimes there’s static, you know, conflicts, and misunderstanding. When something happens, most of the time it’s just that, a misunderstanding… Sometimes people simply do

The Shot Heard Around the World

Even though many could see where all of this division and hatred in our country was leading to, when we witness the actual violence, realty once again floods in and has a way of shattering the comfort of our complacency, if only until the next headline. Some may find all of this shocking, others may see it simply validating their own fears. Regardless, of your political views, we have to take into account what this level of violence can do not only to the former President and his family, but what does to the state of our entire Nation. Yesterday as news broke of former President Donald Trump being shot, I can’t say that I was entirely surprised. Saddened, but not surprised. Regardless of your political stance, this act of violence is a dark reminder of the dangerous consequences of a society steeped in hate and division. Our collective heartbreak should not be about politics, but about the division and hatred that fuels this erosion of our humanity. We live in a time where traditional

Cutting Through the Static

  Me and the crew at Venue 3 Two after a PeaceWalker Conflict Communication Workshop Remember in the old days when you used to listen to the radio on a road trip? No, not digital or streaming. I’m talking about old school FM radio. When you’re putting some miles on and crossing state lines. The radio stations you listen to don’t broadcast far enough for your entire trip, so you have to channel surf to find new channels as you move on down the road. You continue to push the search button until you hear a song in the genre that you want so you can lock in a desirable station for a spell. Sometimes you’re listening to a song you really like but the station is fading… The static starts feint, almost imperceptible, than grows in intensity to the degree that you can no longer ignore it. If you really like the song, you try to hang on as long as you can, listening to the tune through the white noise and times it cuts out completely, hoping to hear as much of the song as you can before the sta
