RED WARRIOR/ACHAFA TUSHKA-HOMMA PHYSICAL
Red Warrior/Achafa Tushka-homa is a stand up fighting systems that emphasizes basis moves used for century by the American Indians Warriors. Only the creator (Grandmaster Adrian “Chief” Roman) knows where the base move (indigenous) ends and the modern day embellishment begins. I was taught tribal fighting in the late 40's and earlies 1950's by my father, grandfather's and uncles. These techniques, forms and warrior philosophies were sealed away in my memory for decades. Only until I was able to learn and experience what the martial arts world had to offer, did I realize what important material I already had. Locked away in my memory was information that withstood the test of time. I compared my Indian movements to our modem day sophisticated techniques; I realized they both had something in common. Although hundreds of years apart the basis ingredients for success was found in both fighting methods. Major movement were similar and in many cases are identical. Through the passage of time we were able to add the Major/Minor Concepts along with other hidden movements, thus becoming more sophisticated. The American Indian Warriors employed a more basic and direct approach than our modern day Warriors and at the same time achieved the same lethal results. Over the last six years, I was able to resurrect the fighting art of my ancestors. Red Warrior is a control system based on absolute movement that allows the practitioner to take his opponent down to the ground.
Red Warriors objectives
are to (1) to establish a strong base, (2) Intercept, (3)
Control, (4) Disarm, if there is a weapon, (5) takedown and
finish out. Red Warrior is a system that the practitioner must
execute the movements with a natural flow. To be successful, one
should have speed, agility, athleticism, hand to eye
coordination, timing, rhythm, flow, and above all, have a
healthy respect for what can happen should you engage with an
opponent that has a weapon. Above all, be true to yourself to
know your limitation. You must have the ability to evaluate your
opponent's skills so that you won't be overly matched. Remember
whenever you face an adversary or any obstacle in life, THERE
IS ALWAYS AN OPTION.
Flamboyant movements are beautiful to watch. I have found that simple basic techniques employed and time tested by my American Indian ancestries that have sound principle are ones that you can put your trust in. I will now admit that some of my own Kenpo techniques are somewhat over sophisticated, but this is done to push the boundary and expand your knowledge. You must have the wisdom and savvy to know where the fantasy ends and the real world begin Red Warrior has 7 belts levels, 7 techniques each for a total of 49. Their are 12 modular take down and finish out moves included. There are 21 techniques against the Knife. You will be somewhat of a Knife Expert when you complete this program.
