The Fall Line and Destroying Bad Habits

Welcome to ATA Martial Arts.  Instructors who are positive role models for everyone they train.  Not washed up athletes that "coulda taken state!" but ones who are on a journey themselves.  We all have goals, things we want, who we want to be, products we want, sweet cars to drive, that awesome job, finishing something you've started, achieving a title, the list goes on.  Every person has what it takes to get what they want, naturally.  Sometimes, we need more education or a new perspective to get the edge on our challenges and disadvantages.  Sometimes, that challenge and disadvantage is a fall line for us, and we are stuck where we are.  Oh no, I promise, that is not true.

     A fall line could be defined as a place in a river that is impassable because of a current or rock formation.  It could also be
     defined as a place that a civilization grows up to where they can't pass - like a cliff.  For a long time, the civilization grows
     up to that fall line until one day (maybe centuries pass) someone finds a way through, then growth continues.

What stops us are things that are obvious and some that are not.  The obvious ones we know - I just need to get on schedule at the gym to lose weight, I need to clean out the cabinets and eat well, I need to work harder to make more sales at work, I need to get more education to get that job.  There are other ones that we don't see - our blind spots.  But don't worry, our loved ones see them like a neon sign on the strip in Vegas.  

For kids, they haven't had all the experiences of adults that make us judge, assess, reassess, re-judge, and make decision to act or not to act.  Many kids are fearless and will just try anything.  For them, we offer a special seminar that will help them understand the concept of "destroying bad habits."  Using martial arts as a metaphor for real life, we are going to show how breaking boards, relating it to self defense, is just like achieving your goals and objectives - accomplishing your mission or challenge.  After you want the video, check out below it for more information.





The Unleash your Power! Board breaking event will be on February 25th from 2:30 - 3:30.  An hour long seminar where an ATA kid can invite a non-ATA person to attend with them.  We'll be breaking wooden boards, which will be very cool!!  The cost is $35 and limited to 20 people.  Make sure you register right away!!
