Kids with cerebral palsy get kicks from martial arts
St. Louis Post-Dispatch,  United States -The sport of martial arts has long been a fun way for children to get fit, learn self-discipline and improve focus. Learning kicks, punches and blocks requires concentration and strict attention and often leads to improved self-esteem.

Children ages 7 and up who are patients of Dr. Jan Brunstrom, director of the Cerebral Palsy Center at St. Louis Children's Hospital, also have the opportunity to participate in the only known martial arts program specifically adapted to meet the needs of children with cerebral palsy. The classes, called "Fighters With Courage and Power," teach a form of martial arts called Kajukenbo, a blend of karate, judo and jujitsu, kenpo and kung fu. Instructors Ken Sills and Charlie Walton, both black belts, share a vision for bringing the benefits of the martial arts to the disabled.

"The martial arts help children with disabilities with their balance, stamina, mental clarity, focus, independence and self-esteem," Sills said. "When they are here, they feel like they are superheroes."...

Malvern East's Chloe Iriyadi, 16, has just brought home a silver medal from the Junior World Tae Kwon Do Championships in Izmir, Turkey. The only team member to win a medal, and the first-ever Australian female to take a junior world silver, Chloe defeated girls from Thailand, Serbia, the US and Belarus, but lost to China in the final. Her international competitors' skills were closely matched, Chloe said: "At that level, most people are about the same, so it's what's in your head that makes the difference." Preparations included a strict diet and exercise regime to ensure she qualified for the 63kg division. "You want to get to the lowest division possible and be the tallest, to get a length advantage with your legs," she said. Chloe took up tae kwon do seven years ago because "it looked fun"...

STAFFORD, Tex. — Of all the potential explanations for why The Lopez family of suburban Houston has become the dominant force in American tae kwon do, credit Chuck Norris, a one-and-a-half-car garage and Nicaragua. But it all began, really, with a misunderstanding that happened like this. Julio Lopez, a fan of 1970s’ kung fu movies, wanted to enroll his oldest son, Jean, then 8, in martial arts classes. One day, he saw a storefront advertising karate lessons. Perfect, Julio thought. Soon after registering him, though, Julio discovered the truth. The truth was Julio didn’t register his son for karate. He registered him for...

This one isn't about me. I don't even like to Blog. What is a Blog anyway? I'd rather be surfing. Regrettably every once in a long while, I have to take time out to complain a bit. Not about important issues. It's aimed at some adults that monitor this site to it's every detail. So for them, those very select limited few (like about two), I have this rather emotional rant to display. It's not a credo or mantra or dogma of any kind, just...that's the rules here: 
This is a Kids Only Web site!
This site is designed for entertainment purposes only. This is not meant to represent real life. 

Briefly, 
       I created this site for many reasons, (this part is most boring). Part of it being we'd (A. D. Productions) created The Karate Angels® as a cartoon series we'd hoped to produce for TV...(they selected the Jackie Chan cartoon over us). Anyway, the site has continued to grow (about 8 years now), as a very popular site with over 30 millions kids that visit this site. So for the kids and the fun of it, I've kept the site going. This my friends...is a labor of love. I retain zero profit from this endeavor, and I'm not crying. I enjoyed it still. Karate has been good to me and since I don't teach anymore, this is my way of giving back,...and because again...its all about the kids...with a site dedicated to martial arts. 

Here's my point...our Martial Arts Kids Hall of Fame is for kids to have fun with. We are not some official Hall of Fame somewhere that is recognized by the worlds great martial arts fountain, who ever they are. We are simply an innocent, big little website for kids. You do not have to be a world champion, just be a kid. 

Its not meant to be about all the mighty facts and details of every fight that's ever taken place with one kid against another at some tournament in your town USA. Whether they stretch the truth or not...doesn't matter at this web site. This is where kids get to just have Fun!!!!! You only have to be a kid to interact on this site. That's the rules here. 1 be a kid. 2 have fun. Which leads to my... 

next point...Whenever kids send in photos, stories, jokes, poems or submit themselves into the Karate Angels Martial Arts Kids Hall of Fame. Sometimes we're sent information about themselves that may not be always so accurate. It could be by mistake or on purpose, who knows? I don't care. That's is their given right on this site for kids to by incorrect...regarding all the complete facts.  I'm not holding them up to any standards of correctness of some outside influences from anyone or organizations. There is no penalty for errors & omissions here for kids stuff.

final point...I don't want to be harassed in regards to trivial misstatements. I will not tolerate it. I will shut the site down in a heart beat, if it ever comes to that day that we take orders. I have when asked (not demanded to), been willing to consider all options that would be amiable for all. Not demands!

Hey Kids...if you' all continue to enjoy and visit this site by the millions...then the site remains!

enjoy!
