Show # 360: Ken "Shadow" Goodman on '52 Blocks' or 'Jailhouse Rock.'
The American Warrior Society is devoted to one thing: your safety. In todays world, taking responsibility for your own safety and survival is key and our goal is to teach you how.
On today's Coffee with Rich, we will be joined by
Ken "Shadow" Goodman.
Ken "Shadow" Goodman, the founder and Chief
Combatives Coach of 52 VtK, is a testament to the power of
resilience and constant self-improvement. His journey began within
the challenging confines of the New York State prison system, where
he was a resident for a quarter-century.
In this violent subculture, Ken honed his combat
skills, intensively refining them for survival. His self-protection
system, a product of years of meticulous development, was born and
tested within these walls, proving its effectiveness time and
again.
Ken's introduction to the martial arts world
occurred at age five and set the groundwork for his profound
journey. He kick-started his training with fencing and the prison
dirty-boxing style known as '52 Blocks' or 'Jailhouse Rock.' This
foundation allowed Ken to complement his fighting style with
conventional boxing, Ving Tsun, Kali, and Krav Maga in the later
years. Today, Ken Shadow Goodman, the man who turned adversity into
resilience, shares his expertise with the world, reinforcing the
importance of self-protection and teaching the skills needed to
make it a reality.
The American Warrior Show is the podcast of the American Warrior Society. AWS is a self-defense oriented educational website coming in the spring of 2015 that prepares men and woman from any walk of life to survive violent encounters.
