Can Gurdwaras Set Up Classes For Fitness And Combat Training


Recommended Posts

looking at the Birmingham video Sikhs need to learn how to be physically fit and how to fight

especially teaching kids these skills at a young age

is their any way we can set up classes in gurdwaras for kids an teens and adults who can't afford to learn this stuff especially kids whose parents are to busy to take them to classes

any way to set up crossfit classes which I think is a great program that teaches team work and fitness and people compete world wide in crossfit

fitness competitions

google or youtube crossfit for more info I cannot copy and paste links

another great website is www.howtofightnow.com

an some great youtube videos about self defence and street fighting produced by fightsmartrav a former professional mma fighter

great video is how to win street fight with head movement which is on youtube shows how head movement you learn in boxing mma an muay thai

is essential to a street fight

another great video youtube fightsmartrav how to fight multiple attackers and how to throw a knockout punch

lets face it a lot of Sikhs are out of shape either their super skinny or have big guts and are fat

plus this is a great way to teach youth to build confidence


their is also a gym in uk owned by a Sikh former muay thai world champion kash the flash gill if you google it you will see he has a gym in birmingham

Must Gurdwaras are so off the ball on this issue its crazy. I heard of Gurdwara in Coventry cancelling street defence classes because they were scared there insurance wouldn't cover it if someone got injured.. But it's fine for the same Gurdwara to hire out their hall for meat sharaab parties...lol

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
