Stillness Academy

06/25/2024

Once a year, we gather the entire Stillness Family together to celebrate each other, and all of the hard work makes this the very special place it is.

This is a powerful and emotional gathering, as we reflect on so much growth and precious time spent training beyond limits, laughing together, and discovering parts of ourselves we didn’t know we had.

This year was particularly emotional, as several of our Rooks have graduated and are making their way out into the world. More on this later. 🥹

Keep an eye out for the slideshows from this year’s event! 🤍🤍🤍

I was so excited when I was asked to run a mini-course for these young ladies. Recent news about unfortunate events on college campuses are a stark reminder of the importance of self defense skills, and I’m grateful to have the opportunity to help keep others safe. 🙏🏼

While self defense skills benefit from continuous honing, it’s worth understanding that ANY AMOUNT of quality training is a huge advantage over none, and these girls really brought great energy and enthusiasm to every single training session of the course. 🙌🏼

Knowing “techniques” helps, but knowing how to get in touch with The Protector within is a critical piece of the puzzle that can truly help, even when the memories of the “correct” moves fade. 🛡

We do still encourage refreshing skills from time to time. ✊🏼

You can’t protect them forever, but you can prepare them to protect themselves. We’re here to help. 👊🏼

New teenage student 2 weeks into private lessons. It seems to be going well. 🙏🏼😌

He says he feels courageous because it makes him try his hardest. 💪🏼🥵

Training at Stillness is many things. “Challenging” is one of those them. 😅

Hard training in a supportive environment can be utterly transformative. Find out for yourself.

The best time to learn to move fast is when you are young. The next best time is now.

While we do have separate classes for kids, teens, and adults, we feel it’s good and important to mix things up and combine the student body from time to time.
