News - Leeds Today: News, Sport, Jobs, Property, Cars, Entertainments & More: "Leeds community police officer Dave Brook is opening the doors of the Kushinkai Karate Academy to welcome local people and divert them away from a life of crime and anti-social behaviour. Free classes will be provided on a weekly basis allowing young people to learn the art of Kushinkai Karate, which means hard work and endeavour.
PC Brook said: 'Local residents are concerned that there are no provisions for young people and so many could turn to crime through boredom and a lack of focus.
'Kushinkai Karate teaches respect and discipline and will help to divert their energy into a positive lifestyle whilst reducing crime and anti-social behaviour in the local community.'"

Man foils robbery with skills he learned at martial arts class

2005-12-29T08:16:00.000-08:00

Man foils robbery with skills he learned at martial arts class: "Mike Wood and his wife were just stopping by the credit union when they saw a man run out the door with another man close behind. They quickly realized they were watching a robbery in progress and decided to join the chase.

When they reached the fleeing man, Wood jumped out of the car, grabbed the man's arm and twisted it behind his back. Then he reached his other arm around the man's neck and wrestled him to the ground.

Wood's quick action and the skills he picked up watching his 15-year-old son, Harrison, in martial arts class helped him nab the man on Tuesday.

'It was moral instincts. It was just wrong,' said Wood, 44, whose family has belonged to the Sound Credit Union for 10 years. 'I just wasn't going to let him get away with it. Plus, I was a member of the bank, and that was my money he was stealing, too.'"

Martial Arts Training-Meet People, Hit Them, Lose Pounds

2005-12-19T10:21:00.000-08:00

WSJ.com - Meet People, Hit Them, Lose Pounds: "At the age of 44, 13 years after my last encounter with regular exercise, I took up karate.

I was an unlikely karate kid: Like many aging professionals, I spent too much time under stress at the office (not to mention my three-hour round-trip commute) and way too little time working out. My 6-foot-1�-inch frame was carrying almost 220 pounds, and my waist was pushing 40 inches. I needed to get into shape.

Now, I try to carve out five hours a week for karate. Sometimes I spar with classmates; at other times, I grapple on the ground with them. While many of my classmates are young adults, I also have some formidable classmates in their 40s and above.

While I took up karate to lose weight and improve my health, I learned to my surprise that I enjoy physical combat and the feeling of power it gives me. I feel better at work, too. At a roast when I transferred departments a few years ago, a colleague made fun of my losing in squash to an older man with a heart transplant. These days, it's good for my morale to look around and figure I could knock down anybody in the room..."

Karate teacher dies sparring with 10-year-old girl

2005-12-19T05:34:00.000-08:00

Karate teacher dies sparring with 10-year-old girl - Sports News - Webindia123.com: "A black belt martial art instructor died in a sparring session with a 10-year-old girl student, a newspaper reported Sunday.

Tony Caldwell, 47, a store security guard in Hastings, suffered a heart attack during the fight with the girl and died on the spot, said a coroner. The girl was deeply traumatised by the death of the instructor, who insisted on her hitting him at a sparring session, the Herald said.

'She had no sleep at all that night,' her father told the paper, adding that she suffered 'nightmares all the next night and a few every night since then'.

'When she was punching him and then he went down like that, clutching his chest, ... 'she's connected it',' he said.

The girl and her father were not named.

Coroner Peter Dennehy said Caldwell had a high cholesterol level and blood pressure and was 'a fool to himself' for continuing to spar.

'He was basically the author of his own misfortune,' he said."

Women taxi drivers in New Delhi are being trained in karate as part of plan to combat crime against women in India?s cities

2005-12-11T03:47:00.000-08:00

Khaleej Times Online: "Women taxi drivers in New Delhi are being trained in karate as part of plan to combat crime against women in India?s cities.

The women taxi driver project was launched on Friday at the international airport and key tourist sites. Officials say the project will also be launched in Mumbai and the southern city of Hyderabad.

High-profile attacks on women prompted the country?s tourism minister to say last year that the Indian male?s attitude towards women was scaring female tourists away from the country.

?We aim to bring women to the forefront of the tourism industry ... and make women travellers feel more comfortable as they tour the city,? Naresh Chandra Joshi, a spokesman for India?s tourism ministry, said on Saturday. "
