How to Achieve the Stress Free, Confident Lifestyle You Deserve…
100% Guaranteed!
“And no...I’m not going to recommend a lot of boring exercise routines or “pop-psychology” rubbish.
Instead, I’m going to share with you the powerhouse Martial Art Strategies that I have used with hundreds of professionals...just like you!”
In fact, I am so sure that Karate World’s programme will benefit you that I am offering a FREE MONTH OF TRAINING FOR YOU TO SEE FOR YOURSELF!
This “no strings attached” offer allows you to “test drive” us - to see if we can make good on these “outrageous” promises - at absolutely no risk or expense to you!
You see, even in today’s “civilized” society...there is still an enemy pursuing you. But it’s not like the old days, when the bear would come down from the mountain and try to eat you.
Even though civilization has driven away the actual bear...today’s “bear” is just as ferocious... just as hungry... and a lot trickier.
Let me explain. Have you ever found yourself asking:
- “I’m successful...why don’t I have the peace of mind --the satisfaction -- I thought I would have at this point in my life?”
- “Have I become “soft” -- the victim of a sedentary “couch potato” lifestyle?
- “Have I lost the edge, the fire, the passion I had a few years back?”
Here’s the problem:
The same civilization that has protected us from the actual bear has also created a different type of “bear”...like I said...just as hungry, and a lot trickier. It’s called STRESS...and you may have seen its ugly “tracks” near your home:
For example, have you ever experienced:
- A lack of energy...a sense of fatigue that prevents you from doing the things you enjoy?
- Boredom, and a feeling that life has lost its excitement?
- Frustration...a lack of patience...a feeling that time is slipping through your hands?
And, most dangerously, a gut feeling that somehow you have lost control.
I am writing to you -- as one professional to another -- with an important message:
It doesn’t have to be that way.
The Stress-Free, Confident Lifestyle is yours for the taking!
And it’s a lot easier than you think.
And you can see if what I say is right, by having a FREE MONTH of classes at one of my professional martial schools.
Imagine the confidence and the peace of mind you would have if you knew: the principles of stress reduction...your “key” to inner peace! the “secret” to smashing self-imposed barriers the self-defence skills necessary to protect yourself and your family.
My team of professionals and I have been teaching Stress Free, Confident Lifestyle Strategies to professionals just like yourself, for over twenty years. We currently have over 1000 students activity training in our Academy’s, and have graduated hundreds of Black Belts.
You might wonder why I am so confident that these “ancient secrets” will work for you.
Here’s why:
I have used them myself to make my school’s the number #1 in the nation.
But...I don’t expect you to rely only on my “say-so”... Read what these “Karate World” students have to say:
The greatest gift I've received from my time at Karate World is the ability to push beyond my comfort zone. Before I started my training, I was getting along OK. I had debts, but not huge ones. I had started a part-time business which brought in a little extra money, but not much. I didn’t try new things, since I was already mostly content. I was surviving, but not really living. The instructors at the school started me with little challenges at first to build up my confidence and then bigger ones. The funny thing was, I always felt safe. One day, I was testing for a new belt and I realized that I could try some moves with which I wasn't entirely comfortable. I took the chance and when I walked home with my new belt, I felt like I had gone beyond doing just "OK" and had really excelled. My entire life didn’t changed in that one moment, but I did begin to glimpse the possibilities. As I pushed myself to try new things in my training, that courage began to enter my life outside the school."
This past year, because I dared to work on more challenging projects, my business earned more than ten times what it did! I've begun to travel, to experience more of what this world has to offer!

Just a brief note of thanks on this the occasion of my promotion to Brown Belt. I knew when I started training with you I would notice changes in my life; I didn’t realize how dramatic those changes would be. Here’s a brief list of how my life has improved since I began studying with you:
- 1. I have much greater focus in my life
- 2. I am in much better physical condition
- 3. I am much more flexible which makes little things like walking around easier—really!
- 4. I deal with tense situations much more calmly
- 5. I almost never lose my temper; those who know me well find this to be the greatest benefit I have reaped from “Karate World!”
Master Thompson, when I joined the school I gave reasons for joining the school; I think one of them was to improve my flexibility. Little did I know! I have done this but I have done so much more! I can’t thank you enough. My experience at “Karate World” has been one of the most positive experiences of my life.

I have to confess that I was sceptical about some of the things I had heard about martial arts and “Karate World.” Maybe that’s why I walked past your school for almost 5 years before I stopped in to give it a try. Besides, I’m a lawyer. I’m paid to be sceptical. I thought that studying karate might help me get in better shape, but I questioned whether it could make a significant difference. Since I started training, however, my flexibility and stamina have improved dramatically. In fact, my training at “Karate World” helped prepare me mentally and physically to complete 2 marathons, 4 half-marathons, and several other long distance runs. Also, my training has proven to be a great stress reliever, which has helped immeasurably in many facets of my professional and personal life.
Of course, people talk a lot about the special skills that Karate World offers children, but I want to stress that it offers something very special to adults as well. Karate World provides an oasis where everyone is treated with respect, where everyone is encouraged (and expected) to do their best, and where every individual is nurtured and helped to excel. It is a very civilized corner of an often uncivilized world. I think many more adults would try it if they knew what they would find. Thank you, Master Thompson, for all you have done for me, for so many of my friends, and for all of your students.

What follows is a short story,
about me, a drunk
and an old man”
“A turning point in my life came one day on a train in the middle of a drowsy spring afternoon. At one station the doors opened, and suddenly the quiet afternoon was shattered. There stood a man at the doorway, bellowing at the top of his lungs. He yelled violent, obscene, incomprehensible curses. Just as the doors closed, the man staggered into the car. He was big, drunk, and dirty. He wore labourer’s clothing. His front was stiff with dried vomit. His eyes bugged out a demonic, neon red. His hair was crusted with filth. Screaming, he swung at the first person he saw, a woman with a baby. The blow glanced off her shoulder, sending her spinning into the laps of an elderly couple. It was a miracle that the baby was unharmed.
“The couple jumped up and scrambled toward the other end of the car. They were terrified. The labourer aimed a kick at the retreating back of the old lady. ‘I’ll kill you, old woman!’ he bellowed. He missed, and the old woman scuttled to safety. This so enraged the drunk; he grabbed the metal pole in the center of the car, and tried to wrench it out of its stanchion. I could see that one of his hands was cut and bleeding. The train lurched ahead, the passengers frozen with fear. I stood up.
“I was young and in pretty good shape. I stood nearly six feet, weighed 12 stone. I’d been putting in a solid three hours of training every day for the past three years. I liked to throw and grapple. I thought I was tough. Trouble was, my martial skill was untested in actual combat.
“My teacher taught us each day that martial arts were devoted to peace. ‘Karate’ he said again and again, ‘is the art of reconciliation. Whoever has the mind to fight has broken his connection with the universe. If you try to dominate other people, you are defeated. We study how to resolve conflict, not how to start it.’
“I listened to his words. I tried hard. I wanted to quit fighting. I could feel my forbearance exalting me. I felt both tough and holy. In my heart of hearts, however, I was dying to be a hero. I wanted a chance, an absolutely legitimate opportunity whereby I might save the innocent by destroying the guilty.
“This is it!’ I said to myself as I got to my feet. ‘This slob, this animal, is drunk and mean and violent. People are in danger. If I don’t do something fast, somebody will probably get hurt. I’m gonna take him to the cleaners. “Seeing me stand up, the drunk saw a chance to focus his rage. ‘Aha!” he roared. ‘A foreigner! You need a lesson in manners!”
“I held on lightly to the commuter strap overhead. I gave him a slow look of disgust and dismissal. I gave him every bit of nastiness I could summon up. I planned to take this turkey apart, but he had to be the one to move first. And I wanted him mad, because the madder he got, the more certain the victory. I pursed my lips and blew him a sneering, insolent kiss. It hit him like a slap in the face. ‘All right!’ he hollered. ‘You’re gonna get a lesson.’ He gathered himself for a rush at me. He’d never know what hit him.
“A split second before he moved, someone shouted, ‘HEY!‘ It was so ear-splitting. I wheeled to my left, the drunk spun to his right. We both stared down at a little old man. He must have been well into his seventies. He sat there immaculate. He took notice of me, but beamed delightedly at the labourer, as though he had a most important secret to share.
“’C’mere,’ the old man said in an easy tone of voice. ‘C'mere and talk with me.’ He waved his hand lightly. The big man followed. He planted his feet in front of the old man and towered over him. ‘Talk to you,’ he roared above the clacking wheels. ‘Why should I talk to you?’ The drunk now had his back to me. If his elbow moved so much as a millimeter, I’d drop him in his socks.
“The old man continued to beam at the labourer. There was not a trace of fear or resentment about him. ‘What’cha been drinking’?’ he asked lightly, his eyes sparkling with interest. ‘I been drinkin’ rum,’ the labourer bellowed back. ‘And it’s none of your business!’ Flecks of spittle splattered the old man. Oh, that’s wonderful, the old man said with delight, absolutely wonderful! You see, I love sake (A Japenese drink), every night, my wife and I, she’s 76, you know; warm up a little bottle of saki. We take it out into the garden and we sit on the old wooden bench that my grandfather had made. We watch the sun go down behind the persimmon tree. It is so gratifying, even when it rains!’ He looked up at the labourer, eyes twinkling, happy to share the delightful details about his personal life.
“As he struggled to figure where the old man’s conversation was taking him, the drunk’s face began to soften. His fists slowly unclenched. ‘Yeah,’ he said slowly, I love persimmons, to. . . .’His voice trailed off.
“Yes,’ said the old man, smiling, ‘and I’m sure you have a wonderful wife.’
“No,’ replied the labourer. ‘My wife died.’ He hung his head. Very gently, swaying with the motion of the train, the big man began to sob. ‘I don’t got no wife. I don’t got no home. I don’t got no job. I don’t got no money. I don’t got no where to go. I’m so ashamed.’ Tears rolled down his cheeks. A spasm of pure despair rippled through his body. Above the luggage rack, a four- color ad trumpeted the virtues of suburban luxury living.
Now it was my turn. Standing there in my well-scrubbed youthful innocence, my ‘make this world safe for democracy’ self- righteousness, I suddenly felt dirtier than he was.
Just then, the train arrived at my stop. The platform was packed. The crowd surged into the car as soon as the doors opened. As I struggled to get out, I heard the old man cluck sympathetically. ‘My, my ’ he said. ‘That is a very difficult position to be in. Tell me about it.
I turned my head for one last look. The labourer was sprawled like a sack on the seat, his head in the old man’s lap. The old man looked down at him, all compassion and delight. One hand softly stroked filthy, matted hair.
“As the train pulled away, I sat down on a bench. What I had wanted to do with muscle and meanness had been done with a few kind words. Now I had seen Karate tried in combat, and the essence of it was love, as the founder had said. I would have to practice the art with an entirely different spirit. It would be a long time before I could speak about the settling of conflict.
This story tells you what ‘Karate World’ is all about, if you are looking for somewhere to go to learn how to “beat up people”, we are not the school for you. If on the other hand, you are looking for a place to learn true Self Defence, get Personal Development, be the fittest you have ever been and have a lot of fun
