The foundations of JV are based on the unarmed techniques and footwork, and strategy.

Good, we all hope so, but the techniques, does that involve kicking and punching? Well it must do obviously, yes?

Right its Ok the post above answers my question, seems a good class!

[Gurbar Akaal]

Everything is used, and everything is catered for in terms of countering, street attacks, weapons, group attacks, circumstantial weapons, grappling, ground fighting, striking with hands and feet, awareness, protection of homes, protection of villages / areas of residence, battlefield techniques, strategy, like I said, visit the class and find out for yourself.

Now thats more like it. In this modern era, a Khalsa would be hard to beat when gaining all these skills, actually having all the skills you have mentioned, it would be impossible to beat, but I guess you need to build physical strength too, and perhaps that is taught too for obvious reasons.

Well where are these classes?

[Gurbar Akaal]

The classes are complemented with a regime of Sanjam Kriya Waryam, traditional martial yoga to increase stamina, flexibility, agility, dexterity and natural strength building. Extra weight lifting is advised but in the form of baleh and weighted dand behtaks. Western weight lifting is discouraged because it makes you too rigid and the forms isolate muscles making you too bulky, slow and inflexible

Classes are in wolverhampton, birmingham, lesta and cranford in london.

Seems a really good class, thats awesome focuses on all aspects but its too far from me. Dont they have one up north some in Yorkshire.

I used to go the Cranford Akhara in London and theres also one at the Guru Tegh Bahadur Gurdwara in Wolverhampton...but thats mainly advanced but he'd still be willing to teach you. Um...i think theres also one in Birmingham...but not sure where.

If you go, be ready to feeel the pain the next day especially after Sanjam Kiriya....warrior style yoga! :wub:

I can believe the pain, after what Gubar Akaal has described, well pain is gain and you just get stronger. I am quite tempted to visit down south, but time is limited e.g. travelling.

[Gurbar Akaal]

No up north classes as yet. If you really want to learn im sure you'd be willing to make the trip, considering Niddar Singh travels up and down Birmingham and London to teach, not for money for the fact that he is trying to uphold a dying art.

Classes are free by the way.

Well, these classes seem to be valuable after what you have described, the free bit doesnt really affect me, I mean I would be willing to pay, you learn so much it seems, well I could travel, but I guess you need quite a lot of lessons, will have to see, if I am able to travel 3 hours, perhaps i could also see my masi whilst in B'ham.
