Defensive Combat Applications from a WheelChair

Postby jeff on Thu Jan 19, 2012 9:12 pm

The following link is from a brother of mine who has been diagnosised with cerebral palsy at childhood and doctors told his family that he wouldn't make it past his teenage years. He was under weight, limited mobility on his left side, and unable to walk. He was turned down for martial arts as a child due to his wheelchair and inability to move like other students. So...
7 years ago, he came to the Winglock Ng Family Style and was given muscle/tendon changing training exercises along with Tai Chi and old school combat conditional training. Through his dedication, he passed everyone expectations and earned his black belt and him and I continue to train to this day. He has went from barely being able to extend his limbs fully and having little to no waist control to punching with full force and doing weapon combat courses in knife,stick,cane,spear, and swords.
This shows what true potential is within the human body. We help pave our destination if our heart is right.
