    Since 1996, Aidan Lee has been deeply committed to martial arts and Fitness, focusing on becoming the best student and teacher possible. His mission is to create a movement of 10 million Dads who lead by example.

    Master Alfie Lewis talks to the Dark and the tall Master

    Alfie Lewis talks to the Dark and the tall Master Along with the tall Master, we chat with Master Alfie Lewis about all things martial arts. As mentioned in my blog, I challenge anyone to find another person who is close to the level of passion that Master Alfie Lewis has for martial arts—not just his love and knowledge of his art but his extensive knowledge of other martial arts, too. I love seeing Alfie's 'Keep History Alive posts' on Facebook. He features many old-school martial arts practitioners from various disciplines. He's also in the process of writing a book. I'm sure it will be a great read, and I can't wait.  We had a great catch-up talking about our favourite topic. I hope you enjoy the chat as much as we did.

    Natalie Jurado talks to The Dark Master

    Natalie Jurado is a Magnesium Expert on a mission to spread awareness about this often-overlooked mineral. You see, it wasn’t that long ago that she spent most of her days constantly anxious, stressed and overwhelmed. Despite living a healthy lifestyle: eating organic foods, exercising and using healthy products, she was still dealing with health issues. Her doctors kept encouraging her to use prescription meds, but she was concerned about all the side effects. Instead, she started a journey to heal herself naturally. She spent thousands of dollars and years of her life looking for a solution to the crippling anxiety, chronic pain and devastating insomnia that was stopping her from living the life she craved. She started using magnesium daily on her skin, and her life changed! She began feeling calm and centred, had tons of energy, slept restfully through the night and felt years younger. She reclaimed her life and wants others to have the same freedom and vitality she enjoys now. Her mission is to share this miracle mineral with the world so they can be their most vibrant, healthy and energetic selves. Magnesium is responsible for over 300 biochemical reactions in the body, including muscle recovery. Deficiency is strongly correlated with symptoms including anxiety and depression, insomnia, chronic headaches and more. Restoring magnesium levels can be confusing, leaving people overwhelmed and misinformed. I hope to demystify this mineral and help people make better health choices. I hope you enjoy our chat.

    23 JUN

    Karen Findley talks to The Dark Master

    Karen Findley is a very modest martial artist. I say that because she trained during the tough, brutal years of martial arts. Not only is that a real accomplishment, but the fact that she is a female makes it even more impressive. She’s also very matter-of-fact about her training and achievements and talks as if it was no big deal. Let me tell those who don’t already know that it is a huge deal and that her spirit and will to persevere during those times are awe-inspiring. I’ll leave you to decide, but I’m almost certain you’ll come to my conclusion. The love for her martial journey comes across in our chat, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
