Send us a textOn this special Christmas and end of year/season episode of the show, we welcome back polymath mixed martial artist and sports therapist Rosi Sexton. Recorded during the summer of 2024 it provides a useful record of how confirmation bias work and critical thinking is lacking in martial arts and greater society. Following our in depth discussion, I talk about the continuing issues regarding manufactured outrage, including the supposed "War on Christmas", as well as reflections on some of this year's major Boxing bouts. All of this plus a reflection on CCMA's extremely busy year.

Send us a textOn this episode I take a nostalgic swipe at the show by attempting to frame a series of audio clips connected to CCMA. These include entire lessons from the five existing Animal Instincts online courses, a chapter from the "When Parents Aren't Around" audio book and archive material from the vlogs. There's also some recommended watching and updates on CCMA services.  Music for the Outro:  "Titans" by Cold CinemaLink: https://bit.ly/3HjGhpVSupport the show Support the show Support me on Patreon Buy "When Parents Aren't Around" Audiobook Clubb Chimera Website Clubb Chimera Martial Arts Facebook Group Clubb Chimera Facebook Page Clubb Chimera Twitter Clubb Chimera YouTube Clubb Chimera Instagram Jamie Clubb Books

Send us a textOn this episode Amazonia Krav Maga's two founders discuss various angles on self-protection teaching and learning, from taking a principle-centred approach where students have the opportunity to gain ownership over their techniques to the Chinese Water Torture method used by predators in relationships to the cycle of abuse to women supporting women.

Send us a textMo Teague returns to the podcast! There are few martial arts and self-protection teachers who have influenced my work as much as Mo. He is a teacher with a tremendous CV in both real-world application (military, professional and civilian) and martial arts training. His life has long been one of discovery, exploration and reality checks. On this episode we discuss the importance of fully appreciating the life we seek to protect. Tactical Research and Development Group Mo Teague on LinkedInMo Teague interviewed by Matt Stait Music for the Outro:  "Titans" by Cold CinemaLink: https://bit.ly/3HjGhpVSupport the show Support the show Support me on Patreon Buy "When Parents Aren't Around" Audiobook Clubb Chimera Website Clubb Chimera Martial Arts Facebook Group Clubb Chimera Facebook Page Clubb Chimera Twitter Clubb Chimera YouTube Clubb Chimera Instagram Jamie Clubb Books

Send us a textLee Hasdell is often known as "The Godfather of UK MMA" and for good reason. He discovered the burgeoning new limited rules fighting scene in Japan before the first UFC shook the martial arts world to its foundations. Already a successful nak muay and kickboxer who had fought internationally under some of the biggest pioneers of the sport and earning several titles at the time, he switched to MMA and began promoting the first incarnations of this new sport in the 1990s. He quickly became a controversial and revered figure. However, Lee's scope stretches far further than competing in, teaching and promoting professional combat sports. He has a deep respect for traditional martial arts, was one of the original reality revolutionaries on the self-protection circuit and a sophisticated cross-trainer who gathers insight from a range of disciplines outside of combative systems. On this episode Lee shares his insights into Combudo, an organisation and approach to martial arts, combat spo

Send us a textUnified Fighting Systems founder, AG Martial Arts Centre owner, therapist and author, Andy Gibney returns to the show asking the question: "Is Bruce Lee still relevant?" Bruce Lee is an undeniable icon - at least for the Baby Boomer and Generation X age groups. However, what is his position and influence today? How important is a discussion about him in the martial arts world or even in his own legacy of Jeet Kune Do?  Being a master instructor under original Bruce Lee student, Richard Bustillo, Andy provides an insightful and honest view on these subjects (along with several others). Unified Fighting SystemsAndy Gibney author websiteAndy Gibney books Music for the Outro:  "Titans" by Cold CinemaLink: https://bit.ly/3HjGhpVSupport the show Support the show Support me on Patreon Buy "When Parents Aren't Around" Audiobook Clubb Chimera Website Clubb Chimera Martial Arts Facebook Group Clubb Chimera Facebook Page Clubb Chimera Twitter Clubb Chimera YouTube Clubb Chime

Send us a textOriginally published as a vlog in 2021, this episode lays down my philosophical outlook on combative disciplines. I essentially see them to be three tribes that overlap far more than some would like to admit. On this show we look at the valid and invalid criticisms thrown against them from rival camps and outside. Finally, we take a look at the problem with "stylism".  Music for the Outro:  "Titans" by Cold CinemaLink: https://bit.ly/3HjGhpVSupport the show Support the show Support me on Patreon Buy "When Parents Aren't Around" Audiobook Clubb Chimera Website Clubb Chimera Martial Arts Facebook Group Clubb Chimera Facebook Page Clubb Chimera Twitter Clubb Chimera YouTube Clubb Chimera Instagram Jamie Clubb Books

Send us a textDr Rosi Sexton is a Mixed Martial Arts polymath. A grade 8 level pianist and grade 7 level cellist who performed at the Royal Albert Hall when she was just 17, she achieved a first at Trinity College Cambridge, a MsC and PhD at Manchester in Mathematics and Computer Science, but left it all behind to pursue a career in Octagon. Already possessing black belts in Taekwondo and traditional Jujutsu, she took up Mixed Martial Arts and became first British woman to fight in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. She retired from professional fighting having won two titles in two different divisions in Cage Warriors and BodogFight, and gainer her black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Today, in addition to becoming an excellent climber, Rosi continues to teach martial arts and self-protection, but her main career is sports therapy and osteopathy. I take full advantage of the latter of these skills on this show by moaning to her about my various ailments. Olton Health and PerformanceCombat Sports ClinicRosi Se

Send us a textChapter IV - Escaping the Vultures We pick up on our series dedicated to self-protection as it relates to opportunistic predators. After a brief look at the unfair reputation real vultures receive, we return to the serial killers mentioned in the first chapter.  The episode touches upon some real-life examples of Gavin De Becker's survival signals, the double tap, an asymmetrical assault changing to symmetrical with the de-escalation fallout, tactical escape and a broader view of long-term self-protection - why empathy is important to protect the ones we love from society's scavenging predators. Haarmann, The Story of a Werewolf  by Theodor Lessing (The Monsters of Weimar)Killing for Company by Brian MastersThe Shrine of Jeffrey Dahmer by Brian MastersMy Life Among the Serial Killers by Helen Morrison Serial Killers: The Growing Menace by Joel NorrisThe Long ShadowDes (Guardian article)Drink Spiking Myths Metropolitan Police WebsiteDrug-Spiking Reports Rise FivefoldMemories of a Murder

Send us a textMo Teague is a teacher with a tremendous CV in both real-world application (military, professional and civilian) and martial arts training. His life has long been one of discovery, exploration and reality checks. It has also involved a lot of conflict. Much has been said and discussed about his external conflicts. However, on this episode we touch upon internal divisions through the concept of identity. Mo discusses how identities imposed upon us directly affect our choices and how we might craft our own identities in a positive way, laying the foundation on values and beliefs. Mo is perhaps the biggest all round influence on my teaching methods and martial arts education. With the podcast now in its seventh season this discussion is long overdue. Tactical Research and Development Group Mo Teague on LinkedInMo Teague interviewed by Matt Stait Music for the Outro:  "Titans" by Cold CinemaLink: https://bit.ly/3HjGhpVSupport the show Support the show Support me on Patreon Buy "When Paren
