    SUMMARY In this episode, Andrew Adams and Victor Guarino delve into the nuances of martial arts etiquette, exploring its cultural significance and practical applications. They discuss various aspects of etiquette, including the importance of bowing, the practice of cleaning the dojo, and the expectations surrounding sparring and testing. The conversation highlights how these traditions foster respect, discipline, and a sense of community within martial arts training. TAKEAWAYS Etiquette in martial arts is rooted in cultural traditions. Bowing serves as a sign of respect and acknowledgment. Cleaning the dojo is a way to take ownership and reflect on training. Sparring etiquette emphasizes safety and mutual respect among students. Students should feel empowered to ask questions and seek knowledge. Testing should be a personal decision based on readiness, not instructor pressure. Cultural differences influence how etiquette is perceived and practiced. Mindful cleaning can be a meditative practice for martial artists. Communication and non-verbal cues are essential in a dojo setting. This episode is sponsored by Martialytics.

    Podcast Description In this episode of School Owner Talk, Duane Brumitt and Shihan Allie Alberigo dive into the growing attention span crisis among today's youth and how martial arts schools can adapt. They compare childhood in the 70s, 80s, and 90s to today's digitally distracted world, highlighting the challenges—and opportunities—for instructors. The discussion explores technology's impact on focus, why traditional class structures no longer work, and how martial arts can uniquely rebuild a child's ability to pay attention. This is Part 1 of a two-part series on using martial arts as the cure for shrinking attention spans. Key Takeaways Attention Spans Are Shorter Than EverKids today are wired for quick, constant stimulation—thanks to smartphones, video games, and fast-paced media—making long lectures or repetitive drills ineffective. Technology Is Both the Culprit and a ToolWhile screens fragment focus, kids often learn better from video demonstrations, proving that tech can be incorporated productively. Shorter, Layered Segments Work BestBreaking drills into 2–4 minute chunks, mixing in games, and disguising repetition keeps students engaged while still building skills. Structure and Ritual Provide StabilityBowing in, affirmations, and consistent class routines help signal the brain that it's time to focus—something many homes lack. Progressive Class Length Builds StaminaStarting beginners with 30 minutes, then gradually moving to 40 and 45 minutes, strengthens focus over time without overwhelming kids. Action Steps for School Owners Audit Your Class SegmentsReview how long your drills or lectures last. Adjust to shorter, more varied segments to meet kids where they're at. Use “Disguised Repetition”Teach the same skill through different methods—games, pad work, partner drills—so students practice without getting bored. Balance Energy LevelsDesign classes like a rollercoaster: high-energy drills followed by calm focus work, then back up again. Reinforce Rituals and Affirmations Make bowing in, “yes I can” statements, or leadership chants consistent so kids know how to mentally switch into focus mode. Gradually Expand Class TimeStart younger students with shorter classes, then build up as they grow. Treat focus as a muscle that strengthens with progression. Additional Resources Mentioned Deep Work by Cal Newport – understanding focus in a distracted world. Microsoft study on declining attention spans (from 12 seconds in 2000 to 8 seconds by 2015).

Upcoming Part 2 of this series: how to educate parents and use curriculum design to reinforce focus.

    Re-Releasing my old episode with the great Geoff Thompson, whose bestseller, "Watch My Back" was. Apivotal book for me, first reading it as a teenage martial artist in England.  Geoff is a man who has lived many lives. In his earlier years he worked on some of the toughest “doors” in Coventry, as a Bouncer, sometimes literally fighting for his life to protect the innocent against the violent (four of his colleagues were murdered during this time).  He went in to become the prolific author of over 50 books, an award-winning film maker, a spiritual teacher, and has been a life-long martial artist. Geoff wrote two books solely about fear: both overcoming fear and developing a strong mindset to face challenging situations. I remember reading these back when I was fighting in MMA to get my mind ready for combat, but his writings on overcoming fear are useful in almost any endeavor, especially the fear of being an entrepreneur with no steady paycheck. Geoff has empowered countless people to not only face their fears and improve their personal safety, but to lead happier, more confident lives. And that is what martial arts is about. Leading better lives. Until next time, love and good vibes.  Podcast Website: https://enterthelionheart.com/ Check out the latest episode here: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enter-the-lionheart/id1554904704 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4tD7VvMUvnOgChoNYShbcI

    An event as wholesome as Dustin Poirier's farewell fight deserves a show just as impactful — so Jim and Matt bring in two people who know “The Diamond” better than most to help unpack all the emotion and action of UFC 318. First, American Top Team head coach Mike Brown shares what it was like cornering Dustin for the final time, reflecting on their journey together from shared fight cards to title runs — and what made Saturday night in New Orleans so unforgettable despite the loss to Max Holloway. Between interviews, Jim and Matt talk through some of their predictions before Lafayette's own Alan Jouban hops on to put a bow on UFC 318. Jouban offers his perspective on the crowd, atmosphere, and standout performances throughout the card. It's a full-circle episode that wraps up UFC 318 the right way.
