In this powerful episode of People, Alpha Warrior sits down with Ellie “Belly” Dempster to uncover her extraordinary story of grit, transformation, and redemption. Ellie opens up about her sheltered upbringing in Canada, where traditional expectations clashed with her restless spirit. She recounts how a leap to Australia at 18 led to years of addiction, living on the edge, and a moment of reckoning that propelled her to Thailand to teach and train in Muay Thai. From her first fight in a Bangkok ring to stepping onto the Power Slap stage with just weeks to prepare, Ellie shares the mindset that has carried her through injuries, self-doubt, and the weight of proving herself in male-dominated arenas. The conversation covers her work supporting orphanages, her viral ACL tear in competition, and the deep belief that no failure is final if you learn from it. With raw honesty and infectious determination, Ellie shows how every setback can become fuel for growth, and why she'll never stop stepping into the unknown.

Jeff Patterson has been practicing martial arts for 36 years. He has trained with masters from seven countries and has achieved a black belt equivalency in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Eskrima, Muay Thai, Kenpō, Tai Chi, and Qigong. Patterson believes in the power of meditative arts to enhance life experiences. Why Meditation for Educational Leaders? Educational leaders are in high-stress, high-visibility positions. Meditation can help reduce stress and prevent burnout, enabling leaders to have longevity in their careers. Meditation is practiced by high-performing athletes in other fields, such as boxing and basketball, to improve performance. Jeff Patterson's "Five Regulations" of Meditation: Regulating the body: Paying attention to skeletal alignment, muscle tension, and movement. This includes maintaining muscle structure and flexibility, consuming healthy nutrients, and getting adequate sleep. Regulating the breath: There are hundreds of breathing strategies, which can be categorized as yin (deeper, inward energy) or yang (aggressive, outward energy). Yin breathing involves longer inhales and shorter exhales. Yang breathing may involve tension in the breath and audible exhales. Regulating the mind: Meditation does not require a quiet mind, as distractions are normal. Meditation involves recognizing distractions and using posture, breath, and movement to regain focus. Regulating the energy: Once the body, breath, and mind are regulated, one can learn to direct energy inward, outward, or circulate it to achieve different outcomes in meditation. Regulating the spirit: This is a profound concept toward which meditation masters work their entire lives. Benefits of Meditation: Increased focus and productivity Enhanced emotional regulation Improved communication skills and the ability to "yield" Physical yielding: Getting out of the way of a force to respond with less effort. Requires being well rooted, having a strong and flexible lower body, a relaxed body, calm breath, and a present mind. Mental yielding: Recognizing imbalances in a conversation and adjusting the conversation to lead it to a harmonious place. Emotional yielding: Stepping back from interpersonal conflicts to make a more educated decision. Integrating Meditation into a Busy Schedule: Ritual Practice: A dedicated time, such as 20 minutes per day, to meditate without distractions. Active Practices: Integrating practices throughout the day, even for as little as 60 seconds. Philosophical Practices: Integrating the philosophy of meditation into active and ritual practices. Jeff Patterson's Three Considerations for Starting a Meditation Practice: Motivation: Identify your motivation for wanting to meditate. Consider how your life will change if you accomplish your meditation goals. Consistency: Practice consistently to reap the benefits of meditation. Consistency develops discipline, integrity, and patience. Guidance: Find a guide to save time and improve your practice.

One of my fighters found themselves up to their neck in a brutal training schedule...Three killer training days stacked back-to-back!This isn't what you'd draw up in a perfect world. With Muay Thai training, you must work with what you've got.Muay Thai gym schedules are what they are - you train when the classes run.And let's talk about training partners - they can change everything about your session.A partner's experience level, size, or whether they're preparing for a fight can turn what you planned as an easy technical session into a full-on war.Your total workload combines both your life outside the Muay Thai gym and your training inside it.It's not just about managing your training, it's about managing your entire stress load–work, family, commuting–it all counts!In this episode, I break down how to handle these challenging schedules.KEY MOMENTSFollow along using these quick timestamps:00:00 Adapting To Training Schedules00:11 Managing High-Intensity Training Weeks00:24 Working With Fixed Training Days00:41 Balancing Training Intensity00:51 Understanding Training Load Cycles01:03 Adjusting Training Variables01:27 Optimizing Recovery StrategiesFurther notes and resources at https://heatrick.com/2025/06/20/surviving-a-brutal-training-schedule/

Today I'm joined by I'm by Patrick-Joseph — founder of Breathe Trust Flow, facilitator of men's circles and Moonstock gatherings, Wim Hof Method instructor, and a deeply grounded voice in the world of holistic healing. But before the breathwork, retreats, and spiritual leadership, there was a moment — standing in a room, looking down at the floorboards after another night of partying — when something shifted. That was the beginning of a journey inward.We dive into Patrick's powerful path from chaos to clarity, and how that moment led him to Muay Thai, men's work, and ultimately, to finding deep faith in God and Jesus. He shares how he now lives a life of service — helping others reconnect with their breath, their truth, and their Creator.We explore everything from resistance to taking action, to demonic energies, to the power of stillness, and the practices that keep his spirit aligned — from cold water therapy and cacao ceremonies to plant medicine and prayer.This is a raw, powerful, and deeply spiritual conversation about purpose, surrender, and the healing that comes when you stop running and start listening.You can find out more about Patrick-Joseph's upcoming events and workshops at:https://www.instagram.com/breathetrustflow?igsh=b2szdWV0Y2FvbzJi

Plyometrics and weight training. Let's clear up this confusion!In Muay Thai, fighters often treat "strength AND conditioning" as one thing. But these are two distinct components: "strength" OR "conditioning."Let's break this down...STRENGTH Training includes:• Weight room-based resistance work• Plyometric and med ball drills• Explosive power training• Traditional strength exercisesCONDITIONING is different:• Cardio work• Energy system development• Stamina building• Recovery capacityThey're separate beasts with different purposes.

You know what's fascinating about asking world champions for their best advice for Muay Thai?They see through the noise and cut to the chase.You may expect a ONE Championship double champ like Regian Eersel to talk about secret training methods or advanced fighting tactics.Instead, he shared something simpler – and far more powerful.One of the most dangerous strikers on the planet, standing there telling me his biggest regret wasn't about training harder or learning more techniques...It was about being too damn stubborn to listen to his coaches.“I was really hard-headed, I didn't listen at all,” he told me. When his trainers told him to punch more in sparring, he'd think, “Nah, I don't like doing the punch now. I'm gonna kick more.”Sound familiar?KEY MOMENTSFollow along using these quick timestamps:00:00 Regretting Not Listening More!00:10 Young & Hard-Headed00:28 Coaches Saw It Coming00:49 Having Eyes On Your Sparring01:21 Exploiting a 3rd Person PerspectiveFurther notes and resources at https://heatrick.com/2025/05/30/regian-eersel-didnt-listen-to-best-advice/

Dr. David K. Bernard addresses a question frequently raised by Christians navigating modern culture: Is it acceptable for believers to practice yoga or participate in martial arts?Yoga and many martial arts have historical roots in Eastern religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism.

He offers biblical insight, historical context, and practical guidance for believers seeking to honor God in every area of life.Visit PentecostalPublishing.com to shop Dr. Bernard's full catalog of published works.

Matthew is back today for more with Ben Case: profiling Gene Sharp and the (non)politics of strategic nonviolence, plus his strange funding sources. Also: why did Erica Chenoweth speak out against antifascist Trump protesters in January of 2017, and suggest their research proved that property damage and scuffles with the police would ruin any opposition movement to Trump? Also: where does the funding come from for all this bad research? Gene Sharp worked for the Department of Defense, and today, Bill Ackerman is a top funder of strategic nonviolence research.  Case is a retired professional Muaythai fighter, an organizer, educator, and writer. He is a researcher at the Center for Work and Democracy and a fellow at the Resistance Studies Initiative.  Show Notes Street Rebellion: Resistance Beyond Violence and Nonviolence | Case Why Civil Resistance Works | Columbia University Press  Why Not Riot?

You may have grown up with the term “nonviolence” shining like a pole star over every discussion of how we accomplish socio-political change. But what does it really mean? And who defines violence for that matter—beyond the police, the courts, and others in power? Today, the theory of non-violence has grown beyond its Gandhian, spiritual aspiration roots, while retaining an irrational faith and offering a distorted view of resistance history. It is now a think-tank-approved, purportedly evidence-based method that guarantees movement success.  That reasoning comes from the pioneering scholarship of the pacifist Gene Sharp in the 1960s, and his inheritors in strategic nonviolence discourse, Erica Chenoweth and Maria Stephan. They argue that Gandhi's sacred ideal of satyagraha also happens to be the only successful pathway to lasting change—and they have the data to prove it.  But do they? Nope. Matthew's guest today persuasively shows that the movements we think of as “nonviolent” never really are. Why don't we know this? Through a tangle of academic malpractice, spiritual bypassing, liberal wish fulfillment, and erasing anticolonial voices. Oh, and Gene Sharp also got a lot of funding from the Department of Defense. Benjamin S. Case is a retired professional Muaythai fighter, an organizer, educator, and writer. He is a researcher at the Center for Work and Democracy and a fellow at the Resistance Studies Initiative.  P.S.: During our conversation, Ben mentioned that there are antifascist fighting clubs out there.

“This journey didn't begin with fight promotion—it began with the love of the arts, and it continues because of it.”“Mastery is when you're unconsciously competent—your body knows before your mind can think.”“We didn't just build champions—we built humans. And you can feel the difference when they walk into the room.” – Scott CokerWelcome to a very special episode of the Black Belt Podcast. I'm your host, Harinder Singh, and today I'm joined by a true pioneer, visionary, and martial artist—Scott Coker.You may know him as the founder of Strikeforce, the former president of Bellator, or the man who helped shape the careers of some of the greatest fighters in the world. But what sets Scott apart is not just what he built—it's how he built it.At his core, Scott is a martial artist. A student and teacher who carries the legacy of Ernie Reyes, a master of building not just champions, but character. From training in Korea to creating global fight organizations, from discovering legends like Daniel Cormier and Ronda Rousey to launching his latest venture, “Fight Night,” Scott's journey is a masterclass in authenticity, intuition, and martial arts spirit.In this conversation, we dive into:The philosophy behind building warriors from the ground up.The subtle art of talent identification and what it means to feel someone's greatness before the world sees it.The return to grassroots martial arts through “Fight Night” in San Jose.The evolving culture of combat sports—from rings to cages, from Muay Thai to MMA.And most importantly, what it really means to live, breathe, and walk the path of martial arts—on and off the mat.This is more than a conversation. It's a rare glimpse into the heart and mind of someone who's helped shape the evolution of modern martial arts, all while staying deeply rooted in the traditional code of the warrior.

In Episode 194 of the Pu'u Muay Thai Podcast, recorded at Teep Studios in Scottsdale, AZ, Jonathan Puu returns from a jam-packed trip to Ventura, California to share major updates and powerful insights into the future of Muay Thai officiating in the U.S.

This week's guests on the special edition Bruce Lee Foundation takeover of the Bruce Lee Podcast for the month of May are The Twinjas—Ollie and Jonny Ho—and professional MMA fighter, stunt performer, and coach Austin Liu. Shannon has known Ollie and Jonny Ho, known as The Twinjas, their whole lives. Their father, Steven Ho (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Conan O'Brien), has been a previous guest on the podcast and is a longtime friend. Identical twins and martial arts prodigies, the boys are making waves across entertainment, athletics, and fashion.  They've trained since the age of four and have competed across multiple martial disciplines including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, boxing, Muay Thai, and more. Their infectious energy and talent have earned them roles on a number of series, and they are regular contributors to the official Bruce Lee social media accounts. Joining them is professional fighter, stunt performer and coach, Austin Liu. Austin is also one of the martial arts instructors for both the Camp Bruce Lee and Warrior Academy programs at the BLF,  where he shares his passion for working with youth by bringing Bruce's philosophies of personal growth and confidence to the next generation. Join Shannon as they discuss how all three guests first found martial arts, how Bruce Lee's legacy has influenced their journeys, and what it means to grow into your power—both physically and mentally.

Zach Stone's life arc runs from teenage “knucklehead” to crisis negotiator, trauma-informed facilitator, and head-of-product for thirty health-ed dev teams. In this rich, funny, and occasionally hair-raising conversation we drill down into the how of navigating chaos — on a subway platform, in a corporate boardroom, and inside your own nervous system.Trigger warning: there's a conversation about suicide at about 15 minutes into the episode. Skip to minute 17 if you want to avoid this section.Here's a tasting menu of our conversation:Gang manuals & purple binders – How a Quaker-adjacent conflict resolution course turned a 15-year-old troublemaker into a group dynamics geek.From union hall to board hall – Lessons learned refereeing SEPTA labor fights and why the same “rubber-and-glue” listening works on Zoom stand-ups.OARS in rough water – Using Motivational Interviewing (Open questions, Affirmations, Reflections, Summaries) to defuse rage, whether from a bus driver or the voice in your own head.Simulated danger, real breakthroughs – How well-designed role-plays can heal trauma if you hold the container (and what happens when a participant suddenly starts to undress).Signs you're in a chaotic system – Chronic absenteeism, cortisol tummy, “my work doesn't matter” syndrome, and 70% burnout in tech.Habit > culture – A shout-out to Paul Gibbons, Prochaska & DiClemente, and the myth of top-down culture change.Martial arts as somatic therapy – TaeKwonDo to Muay Thai to boxing; what Zach saw when veterans laid down their canes and kids in shelters stopped fighting.Virtual heartbreak – Coaching a Kharkiv dev team while missiles shook their bomb shelter.Chaos surfing 101 – Why you don't control chaos, you ride it; plus simple team-level practices to build collective resilience.TakeawaysName the elephant first. Start every workshop by voicing the resistance in the room; it evaporates faster than you'd think.Watch for survival mode. Tight shoulders, skipped meals, rolling eyes? Slow down before you roll out another initiative.Move the meat-sack. Five minutes of mindful movement (shadow-boxing, Tai-Chi, hallway laps) resets the neuro-chemistry better than another latte.Change habits, not slogans. Draft tiny incentives that make the preferred behavior the easy behavior; culture follows.Links & ResourcesZach on LinkedIn – the easiest place to connect and geek out about behavioral science.Red Kite Project – trauma-informed organizational change (Charlotte DiBartolomeo).AFSC Help Increase the Peace curriculumBooksPeter Levine – Waking the TigerBessel van der Kolk – The Body Keeps the ScorePaul Gibbons –

Today we'll be talking about a man arrested in Bangkok after throwing concrete at oncoming traffic, Thailand's plans to use Muay Thai as a global soft power strategy, and a little later a deadly SUV crash at the Manila airport.

The simplest way to get better at Muay Thai, is just to do more Muay Thai!I used to think soreness meant progress.If I wasn't waking up stiff, bruised, or dead-legged, I'd wonder if I had even trained hard enough.So I'd double down — longer pad rounds, heavier bags, extra roadwork, more lifting sets.Because more work means more gains, right?That's what I told myself… right up until my body said otherwise.Turns out, chasing exhaustion isn't the same as chasing excellence.And that's where Bryan Popejoy flips the script...KEY MOMENTSFollow along using these quick timestamps:00:00 Why the "Train Till You Drop" Mindset Is Failing Fighters00:44 Smarter, Not Softer02:06 Why Thailand Isn't Your Template03:48 What Real Efficiency Looks LikeFurther notes and resources at https://heatrick.com/2025/05/02/think-you-need-to-do-more-muay-thai-bryan-popejoy-shares-what-youre-missing/

But this April… something else was blooming inside me.四月的雨会带来五月的花，但今年四月，在我内心开花的，是更不可思议的东西。�第一段：Pai 遇见 Edu（Meeting Edu in Pai）In early April, I left Chiang Mai and headed to the dreamy mountain town of Pai.四月初，我离开清迈，前往梦幻山城拜县。On my second day there, I met Edu—a Muay Thai trainee from the Canary Islands of Spain.抵达的第二天，我认识了 Edu，一位来自西班牙加那利群岛的泰拳训练者。To my surprise, we clicked immediately. We had so much in common!令我惊讶的是，我们一见如故，发现彼此竟有好多共通点！We both had traveled to only one South American country—Peru.我们都只去过一个南美国家，就是秘鲁。And guess what? We both tried Ayahuasca there.你猜怎样？我们都在那里体验过死藤水。Even crazier, we were both heading back to Chiang Mai on the same Friday—me for a Thai dance performance, and him for a Muay Thai fight.更巧的是，我们同一天周五都要回清迈，我要去跳泰舞，他则要参加拳击赛。�第二段：泰舞、拳击与新年狂欢（Performances & Songkran）That week was magical. He came to see my Thai dance performance, and I went to cheer for his Muay Thai match.那几天真像一场梦。他来看我跳泰舞，我也去为他的比赛加油。There was definitely a spark between us, but we had different future plans.我们之间确实有些火花，但我们的未来规划不同。We talked openly and maturely, and agreed to stay friends.我们很成熟地谈开，决定做朋友就好。Then came Songkran—Thailand's water festival.接着就是泰国新年泼水节！We ran around like kids with water guns, ice buckets, and laughter.我们像小孩一样奔跑、拿着水枪和冰桶，疯狂大笑。Those moments reminded me of how beautiful it is to play.那些时刻让我想起：“玩”其实是一种祝福。�第三段：遇见 Evert 与魔幻体验（Meeting Evert & the Mushroom Trip）After all the fun, I returned to Pai a little sick and tired.狂欢过后，我带着一点感冒回到了拜县。There, my another new friend, Evert, who I had met in Chiang Mai during Songkran. He was planning a trip to Pai too.在那里，我一位我在泰国新年在清迈认识的新朋友 Evert，他也正打算来 Pai 度假。The second time we met… he showed up at my room—with magic mushrooms.第二次见面，他竟然带着蘑菇来我房间。It was my first time trying mushrooms.那是我第一次尝试蘑菇。I saw beauty so intense, it brought tears to my eyes.我看到的美景让我感动到落泪。I also went deep into self-reflection.我也进入了很深层的内在反思。�第四段：内在觉醒与持续探索（Inner Awakening）After that first time, I actually tried mushrooms two more times.那次之后，我又尝试了两次蘑菇。One time, I was completely alone.有一次，是我独自在房间里进行的。The other time, I was with a healer I met at a hot spring in Pai.另一次，是和一位在 Pai 的温泉遇见的疗愈师一起，那次非常特别。She created a safe, sacred space for us, and I saw so much more.她为我们营造了一个安全而神圣的空间，而我看见的东西更多了。Not just with my eyes—but with my heart.不只是用眼睛，而是用心。Each experience brought new clarity, healing, and wonder.每一次的体验，都带来新的清明、疗愈与惊奇。� 结语（Reflection & Call to Action）This April reminded me:The most magical journeys don't always happen across countries—they happen inside.这个四月提醒了我，最神奇的旅程不一定跨越国界，而是发生在我们内心深处。What did April awaken in you?你的四月，又唤醒了你什么呢？Thanks for joining me on this journey.感谢你与我同行。Don't forget to subscribe, share your thoughts, and join Fly with Lily to grow with us.别忘了订阅、留言，还有加入我5月20日即将开展的七日晨光觉醒旅程Seven Days of Morning Awakening，赶快到 flywiithlily.com 下载我们的离开舒适圈中英语挑战手册，如果已经注册过邮箱的朋友很快的你在邮箱里就会接受到邀请！和Lily一起进行华丽变身、成长、冒险！

On today's episode of UFC Unfiltered, Jim and Matt are joined by two fighters representing different eras of Brazilian greatness. First, surging featherweight Jean Silva drops in for his Unfiltered debut to discuss his standing as a 145-pound title contender after beginning his unblemished 5-0 UFC tenure with each win coming via stoppage. Silva reflects on his statement victory over Bryce Mitchell, how Muay Thai turned his life around, and why he channels an alter ego called “Lord Assassin” every time he fights. Later, UFC legend Amanda Nunes returns for her 14th appearance on the show. Nearly two years removed from retiring on top with a win over Irene Aldana, the soon-to-be UFC Hall of Famer opens up about life outside the Octagon, balancing family and fitness, and what it would mean to dust off her gloves for a title shot against the winner of UFC 316's co-main event between Julianna Peña and Kayla Harrison.
