    Firstly I would like to thank everyone who participated in last weeks training at IMC Engadine. And a reminder to all our students, Bullying will not be tolerated at IMC.

    EXERCISE Technique: Diaphragm Breathing

    Breathing. Seems simple right? This is a critical part of your Martial Arts training! There are many benefits of controlling your breathing not only when we train but during everyday life.

By breathing deeply you more effectively oxygenate the blood stream this not only benefits the heart & lungs but ....

    5 Reasons Your Child Should Do KARATE at IMC Engadine NSW - Martial Arts Training - Engadine 2233 - Karate & Kickboxing classes!

    REASON #1: THEY WILL BECOME MORE ACTIVE This is the obvious reason kids should do martial arts in this day and age – to get active and moving.
