In Episode 228 of the Six Weeks to Fitness podcast, we had the privilege of welcoming a true force of nature—Carol Glasgow. At 61 years young, Carol is shattering stereotypes and proving that strength, elegance, and age can absolutely co-exist. A 4th Degree Black Belt in Hapkido, self-defense and kickboxing instructor, and founder of Kick Fever Fitness, Carol embodies what it means to age powerfully and purposefully. Born and raised in London, Carol was an athlete from an early age, later relocating to the gritty streets of Brooklyn, New York. There, she honed her craft in the martial arts world—an arena often dominated by men—and emerged as a respected leader and inspiration for women of all ages. During the interview, Carol shared how martial arts gave her more than just physical strength. It taught her discipline, perseverance, and self-belief. From earning her first black belt in 2001 to her 4th degree in 2024, she emphasized that the journey was never just about the belts—it was about personal growth, patience, and becoming the best version of herself. Carol also delved into the mental and emotional benefits of martial arts for women, especially in a world where self-defense is more critical than ever. Her insights into confidence-building, body awareness, and emotional resilience resonated deeply. And yes—she even revealed her secrets to maintaining her chiseled six-pack abs, proving once again that age is merely a number. With nearly 30 years in the game, Carol continues to change lives through her fitness brand, Kick Fever Fitness. Her passion for helping women embrace both their femininity and fierceness is contagious—and her message is clear: You're never too old to start, and you're far stronger than you think. If you're seeking inspiration, empowerment, or just a reminder of what's possible with heart and hustle, don't miss this episode. Carol Glasgow is living proof that powerful women never age—they evolve.

Roar of the Tigress: The Real Self-Defence "For Women Only" by Danny Gee GojuThis book highlights certain basic rules in life; which if you do not follow, will always end you up on the losing end. You will have to use your common sense and imagination to adapt what I teach to suit yourself; so that you are never in a position whereby you will be attacked, used and abused. Most women are attacked because they either leave their guard open or are unaware of the potential dangers; and this allows the attacker to succeed. A man attacking a woman goes against a fundamental rule laid down by nature; which says that because a female is a potential child-bearer, she is vital to the survival of the human race and therefore needs to be protected, respected and cherished. This rule is frequently abused because the modern woman is now much more than a child-bearer; and has become every much as competitive as the modern man. It is this conflict between the sexes that is the main cause of women not being treated with the respect they deserve.Born in Ireland and public school educated in the United Kingdom, Danny Gee Goju (real name Danny Gwira) is the Founder and Chief Instructor of survival systems African Goju and South American Goju; as well as the dance exercise Gojurobics, http://www.africangoju.com.  He is also a singer-songwriter and producer Danny Gee Goju, the originator of Goju Music.He has trained over 10000 students and has a proud legacy of a new generation of students ready and willing to take African Goju and South American Goju to the future.  He founded African Goju in 1985 and South American Goju in 1996.  A Founder Grandmaster with a 10th Degree Black Belt and a 10th Degree Red Belt, he prefers not to worry about belts because he has always believed one is only as good as the next workout.https://www.amazon.com/Roar-Tigress-Real-Self-Defence-Women/dp/B0BVCMMWXPhttps://christianworksmedia.com/https://africangoju.com/danny-gwirahttps://twitter.com/dannygeegojuhttps://www.facebook.com/gojurecords/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/92624chw1.mp3

“Train like a fighter, think like a soldier, fight like a warrior.  I believe confidence has to be done with inoculation.  In martial arts we have stress and aggression drills that inoculate us to pain, it's like they give us a little bit of poison, and the next night a little more poison, then a year and a half later, when we are in the arena with real fighting, we can perform.  In sparring you have to give students inoculations, it's got to be done in a logical progression, because if you don't do it in a logical progression, those students will break.  So first they need to learn defensive maneuvers, then they got to learn how to block and get hit, it's got to be done in a systematic progression with sparring drills that lead the way.  This is how you build confidence.”—Mike Lee KanarekMy guest this episode is Mike Lee Kanarek, who is a multi discipline martial arts master.  He is the founder of Haganah, a 6'th degree Black Belt in Joe Lewis Fighting Systems, a 4th Degree Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, a 1'st Degree black belt in Krav Maga, a Brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Former Special Forces.  He was inducted into the Black Belt Magazine Hall of Fame and was Instructor of the year in 2007.  He is a teacher of teachers and has instructed Special Units in every branch of the US Military.This episode is all about progressively developing the warrior spirit and trusting yourself in combat.  My key takeaway is that constant growth and evolution is essential to building trust and performing under pressure.  In life and death situations, those who have prepared themselves by testing themselves under pressure, will have the confidence to execute in chaos.  A principles based modular approach that addresses the physical, mental, tactical, and spiritual aspects of an individual is essential for growth and development in combat and in life.  We discuss the importance of integrating fighting training from sports combat with self-defense training to develop a complete martial artist.  Mr. Kanarek is truly a Machine, he has a unique sense of his purpose, and is driven to make the world a safer place by creating warriors on and off the battlefield.  Join me for an amazing episode with a one of a kind martial arts personality.

“The real goal is not to be a great martial artist, but to be a great human being.  A Black Belt is a good human being that is constantly working on themselves, it is somebody of a high level of skill, that brings their practice to life in ways that makes other people stop and look and listen.  It's about the Artist that brings the practice to life.” – Tom Callos  My guest this episode is Tom Callos, who is a Black Belt in BJJ and a 7'th Degree Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do.  He is a professional consultant, curriculum designer, and educational activist working within the international martial arts community.  His mission is to bring valuable new ideas, methodology, practices, and programs to the martial arts world.  His specialties are marketing, social networking, martial arts school management, black belt test design, writing, speaking, and developing future Leaders.This episode is all about taking action and becoming good human beings.  My key takeaway is that martial arts is so much more than punching, kicking, and choking.  Martial Arts are a vehicle to empower kindness and develop compassionate guardians of our community.  As martial arts teachers we have a great power and responsibility to use the power of our words and actions to inspire greatness in our students and communities.  We dive deep into the transformative teacher student relationship and how just a few simple words or pointers can shatter limiting beliefs and self-imposed barriers.  We discuss the martial arts industry, philosophy, and the importance of consistent deliberate practice.  This was a truly special episode with one of the most influential mentors in the game.  Tune in as Mr. Tom Callos shares his wisdom, stories, and practical advice on how you can show up and make a difference.

Having mastery over ourselves is crucial, and Michelle Manu, our guest today, is empowering women to embrace control. It's important to recognize that we possess more power than we often realize. Michelle is breaking down the stereotypes surrounding female warriors and remains steadfast in her convictions. The strength of our beliefs holds tremendous influence.  Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy. On this episode of Better Call Daddy, Michelle Manu discusses the cultural practice of the warrior art, lua, and its historical biases towards Hawaiian women. Michelle is highly proficient in all weapons and aims to empower more people in practicing lua to keep the cultural practice alive. Michelle emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and the power of metaphysics to understand oneself. She believes in the power of thoughts and affirmations to manifest desires and emphasizes the need to shield oneself from negative energy and stimulating external factors. Michelle advocates for non-attachment and transparency in dealing with grief and attachment. Lastly, she expresses her journey and challenges in finding mentors for her cultural background. Michelle Manu is internationally known for her accomplishments as a 10th Degree Black Belt, Alihikaua(General), and Kumu Lua(teacher) of the indigenous Hawai'ian cultural practice and martial, the Lua (Kaihewalu and Manu lineages). Kumu Manu is currently the only high-ranking female teacher of this art and currently the only public representative of a Hawai'ian woman warrior in over 200 years. She is presently the only woman to be given the designation of “Knight Commander” of the Royal Order of Kamehameha I (O'ahu Chapter), for her continued work in protecting, promoting, and perpetuating the Hawai'ian culture through the Lua. Previously Kumu Manu toured the Midwest as a professional Polynesian Hula dancer and choreographer for ten years (1990-2000). Today she uses the Hula dance to teach Lua as she believes it is essential for timing, balance, placement, and micro-body movements during close-quarters combat. This is what Kumu Manu teaches at UCLA, and in her system – Nā Koa (The Warriors) and Pā Lua O Manu. She began working with Honolulu Community College in the Native Hawai'ian Program in 2022. Using the Lua and Hula, Kumu Manu teaches self-protection to people in high-risk environments such as pilots and flight attendants, real estate professionals, healthcare professionals, university students, adult entertainers, women experiencing domestic violence and homelessness, and everyday women. Kumu Manu's required system of study also includes ways of the ancient warrior: metaphysical science (Pohihihi), warrior massage (Lualomi or Lomilomi Koa), and wellness (Olakino) and conditioning (Ho'olā'au). Kumu Manu has been a legal professional for twenty-six years.
