Martial Arts + Hybrid Training
Thanks for tuning in to another episode of the TFC Audio Project Down Under - this week I am joined by Kahn Sandy who is a movement and martial arts coach based out of Hybrid Training Centre in Hobart, which was the location for our workshop and seminar over the weekend. Throughout the conversation we delve into Kahn’s background in martial arts and how it led him to the broader movement culture, the concept of hybrid training and why it’s so important to practice different modalities, the value of martial arts training for physical and mental health and how learning to fight actually makes you less likely to get in one!
