Prostate cancer screening: it’s simple. It saves lives.

A PSA blood test, done each year, can find prostate cancer early—when it’s highly curable and treatment choices are many.

Request a PSA test from your doctor starting at age 45, or at age 40 if you’re a Black man or have a strong family history of cancer.

Practicing martial arts provides a wide range of benefits that improve physical, mental, and spiritual health. These benefits come from the combination of physical training, mental discipline, and ethical principles inherent in most martial arts styles.
Mind
Martial arts training enhances mental well-being and cognitive function.
Memory Retention & Problem Solving: Training has been shown to physically change the brain in ways that promote better memory and learning skills. Grappling arts, in particular, are often referred to as "human chess" due to the critical thinking required to predict an opponent's moves.
Confidence & Self-Control: As practitioners master new techniques and progress through the ranks, they gain a sense of accomplishment, boosting their self-esteem and confidence. This disciplined environment helps individuals learn to control their emotions, especially under pressure.
Focus & Adaption: Martial arts require intense concentration and attention to detail during training, a skill that translates into other areas of life, such as academics or work. The practice encourages adaptability and resilience in the face of challenges.
Body
The physical aspects of martial arts training provide a comprehensive, full-body workout.
Balance & Coordination: The various movements, stances, and techniques improve coordination, balance, and body awareness.
Flexibility & Muscle Tone: Repetitive movements, stretching routines, and high kicks enhance flexibility, range of motion, and muscle strength and tone throughout the body.
Endurance: The dynamic, full-body movements improve cardiovascular health, lung function, and overall stamina.
Spirit
Martial arts also nurture personal growth and character development.
Patience & Perseverance: The journey toward mastery is a long-term pursuit that requires consistent effort, teaching practitioners the value of patience and perseverance.
Respect & Humility: A core tenet of most martial arts is the cultivation of respect for instructors, peers, and oneself, alongside humility.
Integrity: The ethical foundations and structured environment guide interactions with others, fostering a strong sense of personal integrity and a moral compass.

I CHOOSE

To live by choice, not by chance,
To be motivated, not manipulated,
To be useful, not used,
To excel, not compete.

I choose self-esteem, not self-pity,
I choose to listen to my inner voice,
not to the random opinions of others.
I choose to do the things that you won't,
so I can continue to do the things that you can't.

Every day you have to make a choice - do you live your life by choice or by chance. It is easy to live by chance; all you have to do is simply go through life mindlessly, allowing people, events, and situations to determine you attitude, mood, direction, and to control your emotions. This is allowing yourself to be used and manipulated by whatever comes your way.

Your other choice is to live your life by choice. This decision puts you in the driver's seat and frees you from the randomness of life and those around you. You choose your attitude, your goals, your motivation, and the direction of your life, instead of allowing others to "choose" for you.

When you choose to live by choice, instead of by chance, you are living your life your way. The opinions of others take a backseat and won't carry much meaning in your life. You take control of your life and choose to live a life of inner peace, character, honor, and integrity. The actions of others will not dictate your mood or control your emotions.

What will you choose? Will you choose to be in control of your life, or will you choose to allow other people, events, and random circumstances to control you like a puppet on a string? The choice is always yours to make, but you must choose. Choosing not to make a choice IS making a choice; but it is not the choice that will lead you to inner peace. Choose wisely.
