Kamen Rider & ATA Child Safety Day

Last weekend, Bandai America Incorporated joined forces with ATA Martial Arts and Adness Entertainment to host a special Kamen Rider Child Safety Day. The action packed event at ATA Studios in Stevenson Ranch California drew over 65 kids and kicked off our “Join the Kamen Rider Revolution” Sweepstakes at ATA Martial Arts Schools nationwide where one lucky person can win the Grand Prize of training with Kamen Rider actors and Martial Arts Champions Mike Moh and Matt Mullins in Hollywood.

The unforgettable child safety event featured the Martial Arts skills of Mike Moh, star of hit TV show Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, combined with ATA’s Kidz ‘N Power curriculum, which educated children on ways to stay safe and fit. The first lesson was a simple break away self-defense instruction, then came role playing with possible stranger danger situations, and methods to deal with bullies alongside trained martial artists.

A second “action class” with Mike Moh, demonstrated theatrical stunts from the show. One of the bloggers that attended the event with her family grabbed some great footage of the action in her online video.

In between classes we raffled away exclusive Kamen Rider “action packs” including our Kamen Rider action figures and role play toys, a Kamen Rider backpack, hat and t-shirt. INCLUDE PHOTO ATTACHED Even the kids that didn’t win still got to play with the toys as we set up a fun toy table packed with lots of awesome Kamen Rider toys that everyone seemed to enjoy.

Even if you couldn’t attend the event in person you can also enter our sweepstakes online. In addition to the grand training day prize, theme park tickets and Kamen Rider toys are also up for grabs. No purchase necessary to enter and the promotion runs from November 7 through December 5, 2009 online at www.bandai.com/kamenrider. Many will enter, few will win.

Don’t forget to tune in to watch Kamen Rider Dragon Knight television show, which airs on The CW4Kids on Saturday mornings for more great martial arts.

You can watch scenes from the class and hear about 5 important child safety tips from Jason Morgan in our video from the event:

Quest Crew nails # 1 spot on America’s Best Dance Crew



For those of you who haven’t been following MTV’s “America’s Best Dance Crew” (ABDC) is in its third season of airing. The show has been slammed with applications and crews trying to prove to America that they truly deserve the title of being America’s Best dance crew. This season held a lot of great challenges that pushed each dance crew to become creative - think outside the box and even at points get familiar with styles of dance they were not necessarily the best at. Steve Terada, known for his extreme flips and creative forms capabilities has danced with several groups over the last couple of years. His creativity and capabilities from the martial arts have helped him to excel in yet another creative industry such as dance.

Vince Johnson's ill Reality Event March 20th

Those of you who attended our Feb Black Belt Testing witnessed an spectacular performance by our friend Mr. Vince Johnson & Tyger-B. Check out the Promo Clip from the IllReality event & performances




Philadelphia’s Own, illReality, Hosts a Launch Party and Concert Not to be Missed!

On Friday March 20th, come “Journey to the illSide” during illReality’s launch party at the Painted Bride Art Center. illReality brings together Philadelphia’s finest dj’s, dancers, visual artists, martial artists and regulars from the hottest club scenes to host one of the premiere arts and social events of 2009. “Journey to the ill Side” provides fun, entertainment, and adventure for all walks of life. Imagine a stew of Olde City’s “First Fridays,” “Mo’ Money No Problems” on Thursdays at Silk City or “Say Yes Sundays” at the Walnut Room served up by “America’s Best Dance Crew” and “Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon”…if you can’t, then you need to “Journey to the ill Side.” The evening will start with an art show and reception featuring the work of Adam Lovitz a.k.a. Thunk and party tunes provided by DJ Sammy Slice. The action will migrate to the theater for a spectacular live music and dance concert, featuring Sammy Slice with the Say Yes Band and the best dance and martial arts performers from across the nation, including illReality, RepStyles and Illadelph Phlave. The audience will dissolve onto the dance floor and we will finale with an audience-included jam and mingle session. “I want people to come out and have fun, experience phenomenal dancers and musicians that they can relate to—flirt, laugh, dance and have a genuine good time,” says illReality founder Vince Johnson.


“Journey to the illSide” is illReality’s first formal event. We honor a collection of contemporary North American social dance styles, including locking, popping, breaking, and house. These styles were created within the last forty years and pioneered in Black and Hispanic communities. Over time, they have become global dance forms, frequently portrayed in popular media. “Journey to the illSide” will allow audience members to engage with these styles up close and personal. The concert will highlight the conversational relationship between dancer and musician and dancer and dancer. The intimate staging will take the audience beyond the aesthetic and into the social nature of these dances.

Warrior X-Fit is a unique conditioning program comprised of a series of dynamic exercises which combine to create a “workout of the day”. Each day of the month is assigned a specific “workout of the day” and consists of up to six exercises. These workouts were designed and constructed to recruit muscle fibers from the entire body, elicit a specific neuromuscular response, and be used by all types of users from the professional athlete to business executives and stay-at-home parents. The design of the program and combination of exercises has led to the most comprehensive, effective internet based fitness program ever created; thus earning the moniker “The greatest workout in the world”.
