========= Now, for this week’s installment, “P-Town Kata Epiphany”

While recently enjoying a long weekend on Cape Cod, MA, I had an epiphany. My realization if your bonus.

I understand the importance of promotional videos to advertise my Kata-RX. I had previously hesitated posting videos of my complete “1 Day / 1 Lifetime” Kata. My hesitation was the result of a concern that viewers would simply try to mimic the physical movements.

I feel strongly that in the “wellness arena” there is too much emphasis on form over substance – the physical over the internal. Though lip service is given to the concept of “mind-body unity,” the reality is that the body and coveted “perfection” of same is where emphasis is placed. In my opinion, this had befallen many mindfulness activities including yoga and Tai Chi. It has even touched and diminished Zazen, seated meditation. Internal concepts of breathing, states-of-mind and internal energy flows are missing.

Advertising and branding has transformed these fundamentally spiritual activities into bastions of physicality requiring the latest (most expensive) yoga pants and attire, mats, equipments, uniforms and “quiet-rooms” for practice and meditation. Simply put, you can merchandize and brand the physical but not the internal.

I wanted to use video to promote my Kata-RX but didn’t want a viewer to copy and mimic the physical movements thus forsaking the internal processes. I would post online videos but not the complete Kata-RX. With movements missing, I felt the physical movements could not be copied. The downside, of course, is that a potential student could not see the entire Kata-RX unless enrolled.

Here is one such video.

During my weekend on Cape Cod I had a change of heart. I decided to make the first course available for FREE. No trying to “steal” the movements by watching a promotional video. Now, you can learn these fundamental movements and concepts for FREE. Then, I am confident you would want to expand and build upon the kata and purchase the second, more advanced, course.

Moving forward I see no reason to not show the full kata in promotional videos. Here’s the first release. To celebrate my Cape Cod epiphany, it shows the full kata, as a compilation, using all the videos filmed in various locations throughout the Cape.

So, the first course is yours for the taking! Use the kata properly and you will want more! Why? Simple. You will realize how beneficially the kata improves you; physically, mentally and emotionally. How could you not want a more fulfilling experience?

See you in class – its FREE! Simply use this link, you have nothing to lose!
