 | Karate Cross Training
I have been working on teaching karate to kids who practice other sports to help their concentration and strength. Many professional (and amateur) athletes have found karate a good complement to their other sports.

 | Shotokan kata 平安初段 "Heian Shodan" performed by Frank Paolino.
Heian Shodan Shotokan karate kata shows the kata move by move by swiping a finger. It also lets you look at the kata from all four sides to see the moves from different directions.
With your Android device, iPhone, iPod touch or iPad in your hand, you can review the moves of the kata in slow motion, then practice at full speed.
There are buttons to repeat a move, go backwards and start over.

 | Mountain Biking
I enjoy mountain biking all over New England with my wife and four children.
This is a photo of my Jeep Rubicon AWD Mountain Bike at the left. On a bike, all-wheel-drive means 2 wheel drive. That's right, the front wheel is powered and pulls the bike along.
That gear in the front is a drive gear, so power is delivered to the front wheel if the back wheel spins in mud or snow.
Based on a design from Christini, this bike delivers power to the front wheel if the back wheel starts spinning. I have tried it in the snow, and you cannot stop this bike!
Although these gears look complicated and could cause some problems, they are quiet and basically invisible while riding. |
