First Strike in Karate is Pure Self-Defense – Bohdi Sanders
Never the first attack, but always the first strike! Mudit Srivastava Master Gichin Funakoshi stated that,“There is no first attack in Karate.” Many people don’t quite understand what Master Funakoshi meant by this teaching. It simply means that a true martial artist will not use his skills to go around bullying people or attacking people […]

When the Prey is Armed -Predators Think Twice – Bohdi Sanders
This post has nothing to do with the school shooting in Florida, but in a roundabout way, it is associated to that tragedy. It has to do with an age-old truism. When someone is armed, malicious thugs think twice about attacking him or her, period. It has always been this way and it will always […]

Take Control of Your Life – Respond, don’t React! – Bohdi Sanders
Take Control of Your Life – Respond, don’t React! Bohdi Sanders Have you ever heard someone say, “It’s not my fault! He made me do it?” Of course, we all have. We hear people try to justify their actions like this all the time. The fact is, nobody makes you do anything. You always make […]

Conjure the Power of the Dragon! – Bohdi Sanders
CONJURE the POWER! One of the benefits of true martial arts is being able to “conjure the power” when you need it. When I say “true martial arts,” I mean martial arts that are not watered down, not sport oriented, and not money oriented. I mean hard core martial arts that are taught as they […]

How to See What You Want To See on Your Facebook News Feed
How to See What You Want To See on Your Facebook News Feed It is getting harder and harder to see what you want to see on Facebook, especially if you want to keep up with your favorite pages. It almost seems as if Facebook wants to do away with its pages and just go […]

The Blood of the Warrior Flows Through My Veins ~ Bohdi Sanders
The blood of the warrior runs through my veins; don’t expect me to graze with the sheep! Warriors are different from average, everyday people. We don’t look at life the same way and we don’t think the same way. If a warrior expresses his true views in a group of ordinary people, they will look […]

Martial Arts Madness in the Martial Arts World Today – Shihan Bohdi Sanders
Martial Arts Madness Everywhere I look today, it seems like the world of martial arts has gone mad. When I started martial arts back in 1984, I never heard of a “grandmaster.” The only people I personally knew with a rank of 8th or 9th Dan were Japanese masters and they did not call themselves […]

The Martial Arts and Warrior Mentality – Bohdi Sanders
I don’t “DO” martial arts, I am a martial artist. I don’t just teach about warriorhood and warrior philosophy – I AM a warrior. It is an integral part of who I am and what makes me, ME. The martial arts/warrior mentality is seared deep within my spirit. I could no more walk away from […]
