Hi Everyone.
Happy Holidays from Emerald Necklace Martial Arts!
At our dojo, we love to punch and kick and work out on the heavy bag, but we'd like to remind you that "self-defense" isn't always about protecting yourself against a mugger in a dark alley. We need to be vigilant against ALL of the situations that might harm us.
This weekend brought the season's first heavy snow to the Boston area, so below, I've posted a few links to some winter safety tips.
After the holidays, I hope you'll find some time to come and visit us in our new studio at 95 Everett Street!
Stay warm and safe!
