Ten Tigers

The "Ten Tigers of Canton" were a legendary group of martial artists in Southern China in the mid 1800's.  They were mainly known for their fighting skills.  

The Ten Tigers program at East West Martial Arts in Franklin is going to be about far more than just fighting skills.  

Inspired by Sifu Tammy's FIRST program and Tom Callos's various programs, the Ten Tigers is about starting from where you are and transforming your martial arts, your actions, and your whole way of thinking.

There will be intense physical training.  There will be private lessons, and group lessons.  There will be huge strides made in your martial arts skills.  There will be much more important things than those included too.

There will be environmental projects, community action projects, empathy training (ever spend a day blind?), reading, journaling, the list goes on.  

The idea is that mastery should go beyond mastery of the physical side of the martial arts.  What good is it to master a martial art compared to mastering one's self.

This program is an experiment, a chance for change
