  Watching Mixed Martial Arts on Television

is Like Learning How To Drive By Reading a Book—

 

Sure, A Book Gives You The Basic Idea

But It Doesn’t Even Compare With “The Real Thing”!!

 

 

Read On To Discover Why So Many People Just Like You Have Started

Training Mixed Martial Arts ...

 

And Now Feel ALIVE Again and Ready for Anything!

 

 

 

 

Friend,

 

So, you think you understand the excitement and exhilaration of Mixed Martial Arts from watching shows like ‘The Ultimate Fighting Championship’ or ‘The Ultimate Fighter’?  Sure, the television had introduced millions to the exciting world of Mixed Martial Arts competition but it will never get your blood flowing or make you “feel alive” like the real thing! 

 

Like most of my students who first walk through the door of Victory Martial Arts, you may be thinking that you have to be insane to seriously train in MMA.  Hey, you probably have a family and a good career or perhaps you just think you’re too old to experience the thrill and exhilaration of Mixed Martial Arts competition.  And yes, with the right discipline and determination, me and my staff at Victory Martial Arts can prepare a student to compete and win at the top levels—but that’s not why most people come through my door!

 

They Come To Feel Alive…

 

 

Let me just be brutally honest with you for one minute and if you think this is untrue or that I am wasting your time, then I don’t blame you for moving on.  But honestly, why are you here?  Why do you like watching The Ultimate Fighting Championship—heck, why do you like watching a boxing match or a football game?  I’ll tell you why—because it gets your blood flowing for a change!

 

We live in a society that represses people’s natural instinct to physically compete for their survival.  For thousands of years, people were forced to survive the elments and constantly adapt.  Now, we are not really challenged. We live day by day in quiet desperation for a challenge a quest so to speak. Something that will force us to go confront our #1 ENEMY – Comfort. Yes, comfort is the culprit of the depression and the anxiety that most of us feel. We have trouble believing in our ability to overcome because we don’t challenge ourselves regularly. Thus, we don’t have the faith we will overcome!

But Now We Are… Domesticated

 

 

 

 

Look, none of us wants to go back to the days when we had to hunt for our food every night and I sure as heck don’t want to give up my SUV and start walking everywhere!  But tell me that you don’t feel like something is missing in your life—can you?  Does watching a football game or a fight on television fill that void—or does it actually make it worse?  Most of the people coming to Victory Martial Arts aren’t looking to become world champion fighters—they are just looking to reclaim their birthright and to FEEL ALIVE AGAIN!! 

 

And hey—I am not even talking to just the men because a lot of women come through my door looking for the same excitement and confidence that comes from Mixed Martial Arts training.  Honestly, this society has forced most of us to become virtual robots where we have jobs we despise, bills that never end, and a life that just plain feels empty at the end of the day—for both men and women! 

 

 

 

Let’s face it: people were not meant to be stuck in office cubicles all day, commute for an hour or more back and forth to work, and then return home to sit on a couch to do little more than watch what life could be—instead of getting out there and living it!  I’m sorry—but while I love watching The Ultimate Fighting Championships on television—it doesn’t even compare with going to the gym and actually sparring!

 

 

 

 

Domesticated… NO WAY!! 

 

 

 

¥     Does it feel like the joy has been sucked out of your life?

¥     Are you tired of being tired?

¥     Are you ready to live life to the fullest?

¥     Is it almost impossible to concentrate on attaining any of your goals?

¥     Have you lost sight of your goals?

¥     Do you feel powerless to control your own life?

¥     Do you feel like you are surrounded by nothing more than “familiar strangers”? 

¥     Do feel like you can be in better shape?

 

 

 

 

If You Answered “Yes” To Any of the Questions Above,

Then Its Time To Join The Victory Martial Arts Family…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"I found a home away from home."

When I started training martial arts, I had no idea that it would lead to this. I first began my training in 1999 around July, august and that's when I met the man that would impact my life for years to come Dion Riccardo. Who knew that greatness was right in my backyard in oak park at that time I was in high school as a junior and I was just awe struck with Bruce Lee and when I found out he had a legit martial art system I just had to study it and that's when I meet Mr.Riccardo the moment I stepped through the doors of 1005 Madison street I knew I found a home away from home. His confidence, poise and physical grace were and are second to none. I later found out that what I wanted at the beginning was completely different from what kept me there it wasn't just self defense anymore it was more much more!

 Yes, we are a family and that is precisely why we treat each and every member with the utmost respect regardless of their size, skill level, age, or sex. 

 

Sure, some of our members are indeed training to become professional Mixed Martial Arts Champions like the ones you see on TV.  But for the most part, our family consists of people just like yourself who simply want to learn self-defense, get into the best shape of their lives, and to feel alive again while having some fun in a place where they feel welcome. 

 

As an active member in the Victory Martial Arts family, you can expect to learn secrets that will help you enjoy your life more, including:

 

 

                                                                      

¥     Staying Motivated and Focused To Attain Your Goals

¥     Getting in the Best Shape of Your Life and Shedding Any Excess Pounds—and Keeping Them Off!

¥     Improving Your Ability to Cooperate and Get Along With Others

¥      Reducing Stress Levels

¥     Defending Yourself in Any Self-Defense Situation

 

 

 

My Mixed Martial Arts Curricullium is actually founded on the principles of Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do and combines the techniques of:

 

 

Muay Thai Kickboxing
Boxing
Sambo and Judo
Brazillian Jiu Jitsu and Shooto
Wrestling and Greco


 

 

The synergistic blending of these fighting methods into one curriculium is the reason why some students drive up to 4 hours to come to practice everyweek.

 

We are not just a Jiu Jitsu school or a kickboxing gym.

 

Victory Martial Arts instructs students to combine all the bst martial arts styles into their own personal combat system.

 

The philosophy behind Jeet Kune Do is very simple:  Use What Works.  Using this principle, our highly trained staff will first determine your current skill level and then develop a training program that will highlight your strengths and dramatically improve any weak areas until you are a well-oiled machine ready to take on whatever this world throws at you!  My Mixed Martial Arts  System will teach you to master all three self-defense situations, including:

 

Striking and Counter striking

Ground and Pound Tactics

Submissions and Escapes

Takedowns and Defense

Combat Athletics (Strength and Conditioning for MMA)

"I don't make excuses anymore, I feel better physically and I have been able to focus and expand my core values."


Hi My name is Paul Sepanovich and I would like to talk to you about Victory Martial Arts. After a long and often intimidating search of Martial Art's schools I found Victory Martial Arts by accident, but now I like to think it was fate instead of an accident that brought me here. I have always been somewhat of a slacker my whole life, never wanting to push my self to accomplish my goals. Whether it be going to the gym, eating healthier or pushing myself in my profession, I've always had an excuse to tell myself. After finally forcing myself I mustered up the courage to go to the school.

My first time there I was extremely intimidated. Here's all these people hoping and flying around practicing all these moves and combo's that I know NOTHING about! Even though I knew nothing the staff and my fellow students took the time and patience to explain and re-explain what I needed to do. I have never felt so much comppassion and camaraderie before. This isn't your everyday run of the mill type of school. Here you have people that really care about each other and will do anything they can to help you go that extra mile. Even though I have only been at the school a short time I can already feel the impact that Dion and everyone at Victory Martial Arts has had on me.

I don't make excuses anymore, I feel better physically and I have been able to focus and expand my core values and I thank you Dion and everyone at Victory Martial arts from the bottom of my heart. If your looking for a no nonsense, experienced group of people that really do care about you, the individual Then look no further then Victory Martial arts. Thank you and I hope to see you in class one day soon.

"The confidence I have gained is priceless."

In the short time I have been involved in the class I have learned more practical skills than I did with 3 years of tai-kwon-do. The classes have been geared towards my line of work and have made me aware of the many dangers facing me in the street and how to defend myself from them. The confidence I have gained is priceless. I recomend this class to anyone serious about their job. It really makes you a better person
