This is great instruction - I've paid for online courses but they don't explain the actual mechanics of the different strokes in anywhere near as much detail. Thank you!

[@RosieTshair]

This is such an excellent tutorial, I'm just learning about massage at present, from being a personal trainer, I'd love to have a tutor like this. 😮

This instructor is awesome. I wish he could be an instructor at NHI in California.
Thank you for the great instructional video and all the time and effort it takes to produce this.

Are you still teaching? do you have updated videos? I really like how you teach.

[@beerye3750]

I'm MMA when throwing a elbow you keep a relaxed hand.
If you keep a tight fist the muscles flex passed the bone and does less damage. You can feel you own arm right before the elbow, then flex and relax your hand.
Nothing beats technique

[@TheAnonim211]

Thank you!

1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any
