People Page

 

People Page. Over the years I have spent a lot of time researching historical people who went before us in the practice and study of Indian Clubs, Persian Mil, Indian Jori and Gada Mace. People like Tom Burrows, Gus Hill, Professor Harrison and Sim D. Kehoe to name a few.
During my Indian Clubs World Tours 2013, 2014 and 2015, I have made a conscious effort to meet as many people as possible who continue these training traditions.

Introducing the People Page

Introducing the PEOPLE page on the Indian Clubs website, where you will meet current day trainers, students and practitioners who actively swing and train with Indian Clubs, Persian Mil, Indian Jori and Gada Mace. They will be invited to talk about their mind set, approach to training, etc. Plus a fun question,

If you were to be cast away alone on a Desert Island, which one piece of equipment would you choose to have with you?

Professional or Personal

Over time I hope to talk to as many people in general, the People page will cover professionals or private individuals, who swing Indian Clubs, Persian Mil, Indian Jori and Gada Mace on a regular basis, and feature their stories, and reasons for taking up these disciplines.
