What Is Great Extremes Boxing?

According to the great Wikipedia.org, Taijiquan

literally translates as supreme ultimate fist, boundless fist, or great extremes boxing….

Great. Let’s Taijquan like that.

Don’t bother with sloppy pushing-hands or pathetic, big and round, backward-stepping applications. It’s important to train in a martial art, that, right from the beginning, gives you immediate self-defense benefits. Right from the beginning folks….right away, right now….not in twenty years. Many Yang Tai Chi Stylists that I know in Salt Lake City (except me and folks who work with me) give you something unrelated to that literal translation.

Many proclaim health benefits or healing or pretend self-defense. Often, they’ll lace their proclamation with in twenty years (or more). Don’t do that. Please. Even if it might be true: are you willing to bet 20 years of your life on it? And—if you suspect, even just a little, that it’s not true, then how much convincing talk-talk-talk does the instructor do to convince his students? Salt Lake City is riddled with these teachers. But I digress. I repeat this topic because I remain pissed that there are so many people who do this crap. I’m tempted to give you a list of instructors who do this. But not here. Ask me later.

I tend to write hysterically about the needs for self-defense but, in real life, I tend to be realistic. To be realistic, I temper training to produce results, not fear-reactivity and to produce toughness, not weakness. That’s also a topic for ask-me-later.

Here, I want to show you why, not what. I offer some reasons, even if outlandish, that you should do a martial art—real, hardy, ass-kicking, head-slamming martial art, like Great Extremes Boxing. But I don’t care what kind; I want you to own the capacity to defend yourself, or me and my family, if I need your help. It must be a grisly, terrifying, vicious, and violent martial art. Avoid Tai Chi, unless you do it with me or other qualified Great Extremes Boxing instructors.
