One week till Rodney King is at the gym
It’s only one week until STWA Head Coach, Rodney King, arrives for a seminar and time teaching private lessons. Those of you who were down last time Rodney came over will know what to expect, for everyone else I can guarantee a fantastic and hugely performance-enhancing weekend of training.
We have turned our kickboxing training around since we first introduced the Crazy Monkey Defence Structure, and these changes are increasingly being parralleled across everything at the gym. This means that the club is going to keep on growing, changing, evolving and, most importantly, improving.
How can you make sure you stay at the front line of this revolution?
1) Get engaged with your training – set time aside to train, don’t put it off, and work hard and smart every session you do. Talk to the other students and talk to me about how you are doing. If you are really struggling with something come and see me, book a private or jump onboard one of the group private sessions (there is a booking form posted on the changing room wall). Start a training diary, keep it going and DISCUSS IT WITH ME!
2) Get engaged with your learning - The STWA coaches, particularly Rodney, are all working hard to provide a quality training and information resource that is there for you to use. All you need to do is visit the STWA Membership site and register for access to a forum, articles and podcasts that will help you broaden the scope of the training you already do. If you have internet access and are serious about your training you need to go and have a look at this – if you find the free content useful you can look at the full membership for more amazing material.
Sign up today, get posting, get asking questions, get active. Not everything you need to learn is in the gym, let’s get you all fully engaged in pushing your development.

Hey Phil, once you've been training at Revolution for a while it feels like your on a 'team', it would be cool if we could get a t-shirt with that little orange and white star logo on it or something similar to show support and generate some cash for the club. It would be awesome to see us all in our revolution tees at the next seminar.

I'm up for that. Even more team spirit can't be bad. Also, well done Phil, Adam and Doug on their recent fight wins. I'm sure we'll see a right up on it soon. Photos, interviews, radio and TV appearances. Blue Peter here we come.
9:26 PM
If we're on blue Peter Dave, does that mean we'd have to make our own teeshirts? :o(

If we make our own you can forget looking cool, that's for sure. A bit simple maybe.

Just to say I am really proud of all three of us for what we achived.
Its a shame Doug got injured, Especially as he was doing really well beforehand. But It wasn't the medels or awards that mattered. (Heavyweight Gold, Light (more like Middleweight) silver, and fighter of the day)
It was the fact that we proved that technical fighting is the way forward. So much so I got asked to have an exibition match with a 12 year lad (Yes, he was bigger than me) who had competed but got knocked out in the first round. This was because he and his dad knew I wouldn't rough him up, as I had played such a technical game whilst competing. Quite an honour, and verification on not only what I proclaim and train by but also the clubs ethos.
That meant more to me than my achivements. Again well done guys.
Oh I am still waiting for Blue Peter to phone.....
12:53 PM
Guys,
Did you manage to get a video of any of you competing?
7:37 PM
Can't wait for this seminar, should be extremly good.a saturday with chico and then saturday night watching Jeff :)
again well done to phil, adam and doug, just rewards for the efforts you've put into your grappling.
8:28 PM
We've got the whole thing on tape.
12:39 AM
how about some results on the Team Revolution recent victories...
8:53 AM
I meant details!
8:54 AM
It's on the newspage Mike. Good to see you on here.
10:04 AM
wow that's fantastic guys.where did your competitors train?how did your fights go phil?
9:35 AM
Bringing it back on track to Rodney (although Phil, Adam and Doug's victories are important)...
So far we've had the Friday night meal (excellent company) and a great meal on Saturday night at Wagamama too (again, great company and it opened my eyes to their gluten-free offerings!)
more importantly, we've had the Saturday of the seminar with Rodney. I did my first sparring and, whilst the jury's still out on whether I'll have a black eye, it was certainly good to get over that hurdle.
Only a couple of hours now until part 2!
