  • Know Your Needs

    What Exercises Should Make Up Your Workout Routine? As we’ve discussed before, the best workout routine is one that you will actually be able to do consistently. When you’re just starting out, it’s best to avoid over complicating things with too many exercises or too many target muscles. Instead, try to build a routine which has at least one exercise that targets each of the following muscles. ❖ Fronts of legs (quads); ❖ Muscles for pushing (shoulders, triceps and chest); ❖ Lower back and stomach (core); ❖ Back, biceps and grip (“pull” muscles); ❖ Butt and hamstrings (back of your legs). Factors like your age, goals, free time and geographical ....

  • What Goes in a Healthy Lunch Box?

    What Goes in a Healthy Lunch Box?

    For active children, healthy snacks and lunches are vital. Healthy lunch box choices really need to be available. The best lunch box will contain a combination of carbohydrate, protein and dairy products, along with crunchy vegetables and tasty fruit. Be Prepared Mornings can be pretty hectic, and it’s easy to find yourself packing unhealthy options just because they’re easy to grab. If you can, try to avoid this temptation by packing lunch boxes the night before, when you have a little more time on your hands. For young kids, you can make lunch easier to eat by cutting things up small so they can grab them easily – roasted veggie chunks, sandwiches cut up ....

  • 8 Essential Tips for Losing Weight

    It doesn’t have to be difficult to lose weight. Cut down on the fuss and follow these key tips to make fat-burning a second nature. 1. Eat Breakfast Every Day Planning to lose weight does not mean you should be skipping the most important meal of the day. Without breakfast, you’ll just end up feeling hungry later on which can lead to unhealthy snacking, and you may even miss out on some vital nutrients. 2. Stay Hydrated Drinking water can actually help you lose weight, especially if you have a glass before each meal. Over a period of 1-1.5 hours, water can boost your metabolism by 24-30%, helping you to burn up some extra calories. 3. How Do You Like Your Eggs in the ....

  • Do-s and Don’t-s for the Most Important Meal of the Day

    Breakfast is the most important meal of the day – everyone knows that. It earns its name by breaking the fast of our time asleep and giving our brains and bodies the nutrients they need after a long time without food. You’re going to have a bad time if you try to get up and go about your day (let alone attend your Pil Sung Do classes) without first making the time to eat a balanced breakfast. This would be the human equivalent of trying to light a wet firework. It’s a recipe for disappointment. This means your first morning rule should always be to eat breakfast. But there are two more rules you should take into consideration! Rule 2: A late breakfast isn’t ....

Rachel ER Neighbour (Google Review)

I completed a months course in Pil Sung Do with Natalie after wanting to do a martial art for years. She made me feel welcome, included and that I was able to adapt to achieve the movements necessary to achieve what was taught.

Over the four weeks, I felt a huge sense of achievement and determination to continue the training, despite having some difficulties with mobility. Natalie is clearly highly skilled in her craft and willing and patient enough to teach all levels. She is passionate about this martial art and has a wealth of knowledge to learn from.

Highly recommend trying this, no matter, you age, size or ability/inability. You will definitely feel a sense of positivity, motivation and drive to learn a powerful set of skills and abilities.
