Triangle Integrated Martial Arts

Just a reminder, no class tomorrow!

Hello everyone!

Just a reminder that this Saturday we'll be at the Community Center. So bring those large weapons and a coat!

Very excited to announce we are officially moving Saturday class to Triangle Self Defense Training and Tactics in Durham starting this week! TST is a great facility run by awesome people and will provide the perfect space for everyone to level up!

Also...for those that can't make it out that far we will still do one Saturday a month at the Community Center 🙂

Cedar Forks Community Center is back open!

Great news for people who hate training in freezing rain and also love burpees!

Due to inclement weather tomorrow there will be no class. Enjoy the day off!

We're starting the new year off by doing a close examination of one of our fundamental techniques and it's corresponding flow drill: Water, aka the second Elemental Combat Form. There are, of course, idiosyncrasies between styles and applications depending on what the movement is being used for, however....

The core movement for the attack is fairly ubiquitous and not limited to martial arts: rotating the body and swinging the arm diagonally inward through the centerline.

It is also a useful tool in building our defensive game because the structure behind it is similar to a downward slash with a knife (especially reverse grip), a stick attack to the head or simply a wide haymaker style punch.

Some people will say it's too cold to train outside today. I say...

Just a heads up that the community center will be closed for the next 3 weeks.

Weather permitting, we will continue Saturday classes on the field.

Dress appropriately 🙂

Just a reminder to everyone that tonight is our last class of the year!

Hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday and we'll see you again when we pick back up January 2nd!

Just a heads up for my Saturday class. We will be setting aside some time in the next couple months to work on our emergency first aid!

This is an important aspect of being able to protect the people around us, even in non violent scenarios.

Just a reminder that tomorrow we start our new schedule!

11:30 - 12:30
12:30 - 1:30

Traveling burpees with bosu and reflex drills with tennis balls (for some active recovery). Also did some burnouts with a few striking drills but sadly no pics of that.

Awesome job everyone!
