Women’s Personal Protection – Live Seminar!
Women's Personal Protection - Live Seminar!
|
On Thursday, June 18th, Karate World will host a personal safety workshop for women ages 16 and up. Participants will learn how to defend themselves against common attacks, how to handle other real world self-defense scenarios, and how to recognize “The Five Stages of Violent Crime.” This workshop will be especially valuable for the college bound. The event will be held from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. Our live seminar is offered free of charge, but you must register to reserve your spot.
The “Five Stages of Violent Crime” is an internationally recognized pattern in abusive and violent act scenarios. These Five Stages are processes that take time to develop. The actual attack or assault is not the first step in a violent act. Three preliminary steps always occur before an act of violence and two steps follow – Intent, Interview and Positioning, then the Attack and the victim’s Response.
Karate World’s seminar is designed to teach women how to eliminate the violent scenario before it happens, to avert the crime altogether. Unlike a purely self-defense based approach to personal safety and protection, our seminar is designed to develop effective strategies to avoid the likelihood of the violent act occurring in the first place.
According to Karate World co-owner Michelle Brugger, “Our goal is to empower women by teaching them how to recognize and avoid dangerous situations. We realize that not everybody has the time to participate in a Martial Arts program, but everyone can benefit from being well-informed and knowing how to respond in a potentially dangerous scenario.”
Karate World instructors are certified by The National Security Alliance’s Kid-Safe & Women-Safe Network. These networks are non-profit organizations that provide free safety and danger awareness seminars, fairs and family workshops across the United States and Canada designed to educate parents, educators and citizens about the dangers women and children face every day.
Space is limited so please contact Karate World at (908) 464 – 2836 to register for the free event. You can also register online at www.BeginKarate.com/Defend
Karate World is located in The Village Shopping Center, 1260 Springfield Avenue, New Providence, NJ.

Nutritional Success Tips from Karate World
A Nutritional Formula for Success
As compiled by Master Steve D.First, you need to speak with your physician before making any changes to your eating habits. It’s very important that you take the appropriate measures to ensure that you eat a balanced and nutritionally balanced diet at all times.
As you most likely know, being fit and trim has as much to do with what you eat as it does how often you work out. Exercising can make you stronger and help your cardiovascular, skeletal and respiratory systems, but it may not be enough to help you lose unwanted fat and inches. The following is a strategy and basic diet plan that may help you achieve the weight and body fat composition that will make you look as good as you feel!
First things first! Throw away or donate any foods in your house that contain excessive sugar, saturated fat or are generally unhealthy! Basically, all the unhealthy snack foods must go. This step is not optional! If you don’t take this step, you’re unlikely to take the next ones!
Step two: Have a meal, as described below and immediately go grocery shopping (on a full stomach). Purchase the foods that will help you cook or create the meals described in the diet plan. Choose foods that will contribute to a well-balanced meal plan.
Step three: Weigh yourself ad take your waist and thigh measurements and write them down in a journal that you will keep next to your scale. Do this every morning prior to your shower. Weighing yourself and taking your measurements daily will keep you focused on your goal. Obviously we cannot expect daily changes in your measurements, but doing this ritual every day will keep you focused on your goal. This step is not optional and is critical to your success! Again, if you don’t take this step, you’re highly unlikely to do the next. There will be daily fluctuations, however, by the end of each week you should finish closer to your goal.
Here’s the Plan:
Morning 6 am – 10 am: lLow fat, low sugar yogurt, one serving fresh fruit, hot beverage with no cream or sugar (artifical sweeteners are acceptable).
Afternoon 12 pm – 2 pm: Roll-up “wrap” sandwich (turkey, chicken, beef, tuna are all fine). Salt and pepper to taste and a hot beverage with no cream or sugar (artificial sweeteners are acceptable). Lettuce and tomato or a similar vegetable is fine.
Late afternoon 4 pm – 5 pm: Low fat yogurt and a hot beverage or a serving of fresh fruit or even a small salad with low fat dressing will do.
Dinner 7 pm – 9 pm: One serving of green leafy salad with carrots and cucumbers and low fat dressing, One portion (the size of your palm) of steak or chicken or fish or pork or similar (grilled with salt and pepper to taste) and a green vegetable (no butter), salt and pepper to taste.
Late Night 10 pm – 12 am: If you’re hungry, yogurt or fruit or oatmeal with artificial sweetener.
Drink a glass of sparkling water (or tap water) with every meal and as much bottled water or hot beverages as you like all day.
If at any point you feel weak, irritable or dizzy, add an additional portion of yogurt, fruit or protein.
Expect to lose 2-3 pounds per week with this plan. If you lose more or less, adjust your intake to achieve these results.
If you have any pre-existing conditions or are on any type of medication, please check with your physician prior to following this meal plan. Remember to check with your Health Professional prior to beginning this or any meal plan.

What Thai Kickboxing Won’t Do For You…
Admittedly, Karate World’s “Thai Kickboxing” program won’t do everything for you…
- It is NOT the right program if you are interested in heavy-duty, combat self-defense – or want to compete in tournaments.
- It is NOT the right program if you want to wear spandex and throw thousands of random punches and kicks with no rhyme or reason.
- It is NOT the right program if you are looking for extremely traditional Martial Arts training centered upon Easter religion or philosophy.
So – what WILL Karate World’s “Thai Kickboxing Program” do for you?
-
Karate World’s proven system will dramatically improve your cardiovascular endurance, increase muscle tone, and not just give you the kind of body that you can show off at the beach – but the kind of body you can use.
- We will show you proper technique in a classroom with a fully-padded floor taught by certified instructors to eliminate the risk of injury. In fact, our entire program is designed to protect your knees, ankles, & lower back.
- You will learn real self-defense techniques. Our team will show you the proper way to execute punches, kicks, knees, and footwork – should you ever need to use these techniques to defend yourself.
- Perhaps best of all, this is taught in a “team-oriented” class environment that is built upon the principles of respect and courtesy — so there’s never any of the nonsense that you’ve encountered in “fitness kickboxing” classes as the gym or rec.
…one more thing…we provide classes taught by EXPERT instructors – each with well over a decade of experience. You’ll never find an aerobics instructor that took a weekend certification on “cardio kickboxing” teaching your class at our Academy. We also provide you with a certified nutritional consultant to make sure you reach your fitness / weight loss goals.
I know what you’re thinking: It all sounds “Too good to be true,” right? Well don’t take MY word for it…
“Tonight was my fifth class at Karate World in New Providence. After each class I am reminded of how out of shape I let myself get! I feel great after each class and I find myself wanting more. I spent 3 months in Marine Corps Bootcamp and I feel that the workout I’m getting is equal to that of Paris Island (minus the yelling). The respect and encouragement from Mr. and Mrs. B does not go unnoticed. Also, the respect and excitement from all the classmates is very motivating. I find myself pushing my body more & more and enjoy every class…
P.S. What a way to let off steam” – Mr. Mike L., New Providence NJ
….here’s one more rave review of Karate World’s Thai Kickboxing
“About a year ago I started to burn out from my day to day gym exercising. I would go to the gym and run or lift weights or do a spin class…but something was missing. I hit a wall and I was not sure what to to, until I began researching martial arts. I found your program and I have never looked back. I ended up quitting the gym and started training 3 days a week and not only do I feel better mentally, but my body has started to change. I feel like I look more toned and in shape then I ever have before, even when I was running 4 days a week. I love this program…” – Ms. Melanie H., Chatham NJ
Actually…there is just ONE catch…
If after you visit our Karate World you know that everything I talked about in this blog is true, and you wish to join us – we still may not let you. Even though we are allowing a few people to try us out for FREE – our Academy has qualifications that each new student must meet.
As you may have already heard – we operate like a private training facility (unlike your average gym or health club) and don’t just “Surrender to anyone with a check book or Visa card.” You really need to be the kind of results-oriented person that is serious about improving yourself.
If this sounds like you and you’re ready to reserve your spot – call us right now at 908.464.2836 or register online here.
We are your 2009 New Year’s Resolution Specialists!
Wishing you every success,

How To Avoid Becoming a Victim of Identity Theft
What Should I Do To Avoid Becoming A Victim Of Identity Theft?
Be stingy about giving out your personal information to others unless you have a reason to trust them, regardless of where you are:
1. Start by adopting a “need to know” approach to your personal data. Your credit card company may need to know your mother’s maiden name, so that it can verify your identity when you call to inquire about your account. A person who calls you and says he’s from your bank, however, doesn’t need to know that information if it’s already on file with your bank; the only purpose of such a call is to acquire that information for that person’s personal benefit. Also, the more information that you have printed on your personal bank checks — such as your Social Security number or home telephone number — the more personal data you are routinely handing out to people who may not need that information.
2. If someone you don’t know calls you on the telephone and offers you the chance to receive a “major” credit card, a prize, or other valuable item, but asks you for personal data — such as your Social Security number, credit card number or expiration date, or mother’s maiden name — ask them to send you a written application form.
3. If they won’t do it, tell them you’re not interested and hang up.
4. If they will, review the application carefully when you receive it and make sure it’s going to a company or financial institution that’s well-known and reputable. The Better Business Bureau can give you information about businesses that have been the subject of complaints.
5. If you’re traveling, have your mail held at your local post office, or ask someone you know well and trust another family member, a friend, or a neighbor to collect and hold your mail while you’re away.
6. If you have to telephone someone while you’re traveling, and need to pass on personal financial information to the person you’re calling, don’t do it at an open area where passersby can listen in on what you’re saying.
7. Check your financial information regularly, and look for what should be there and what shouldn’t.
