My first J. R. Roy Martial Arts Blog

Little Dragons class Fall 2008
Hi everyone...I'm creating this blog to archive some of my martial arts ideas, photos, videos and teachings.

Lesson 1:

My first thought about Martial Arts
is simply that practicing is a 'way of life',
it's something that you do daily (or almost daily),
for as long as you are able to.

Lesson 2:
This brings me to the idea of practicing itself
and what can be learned from successfully developing a life long daily practice.
Cultivating the capacity to practice X many day's in a row.
Just to be healthy enough, physically, mentally and emotionally to be able to!

Lesson3:
The actual goal;
A celebration of human existence....
reveling in it.....
contemplating it...
truly experiencing being alive!




At the JRRMAS we study the human experience through the daily practice of martial arts. We practice internal & external martial arts, weapons, qigong and meditation (I Ch'uan)
