Warrior® Inspirational Conversations™ Create positive self-talk Quiet Your Mind. Empower Your Body™. R.E.D. Warrior® – Instructor Training Manual 3 What is the R.E.D. Warrior® Program? RED Warrior Nation, LLC is a health, wellness and fitness company that offers a program combining movement, music and conversation designed to provide tools and techniques to help people live a more empowered lifestyle. The program utilizes a Revolutionary combination of martial arts and military boot camp-style exercises designed to Empower participants and instructors to Discipline their minds and tap into their external as well as internal strengths. R.E.D. stands for Revolutionary Empowerment Disciplines. The R.E.D. Warrior® program consists of three elements: 1. R.E.D. Warrior® fitness classes, which combine martial arts and military training exercises designed to empower participants to improve their physical and mental well- being. 2. R.E.D. Warrior® Moving Meditations, which are short meditations based on martial arts practices set to music to enhance and improve students' emotional well-being. 3. R.E.D. Warrior® Inspirational Conversations, which are designed to promote positive self-talk. The R.E.D. Warrior® fitness format is a unique mind body workout experience for men and women of all ages fusing the mentality of martial arts and yoga with the physicality of functional fitness. R.E.D. Warrior® Moving Meditations are designed to help people stay in alignment when they get thrown off during their day. Often, they can’t wait to get to class, so they may need something in the moment to get themselves to a better place. R.E.D. Warrior® provides that tool in the form of 60- to 90-second Moving Meditations based on martial arts Katas. A Kata is essentially repetitive movement that is practiced for many years. The choreography does not change; it is a discipline, a way to learn to control and quiet the mind, and in turn empower the body. By practicing in such a repetitive manner, the learner internalizes the movements and develops the skills to execute them in a natural, reflex-like manner. 4 R.E.D. Warrior® – Instructor Training Manual The R.E.D. Warrior® Moving Meditations are each based on an emotion, and are driven by music. Love, Frustration, Pain, Anger (to name a few examples) – all of the R.E.D. Warrior® Moving Meditations are based on emotions that people deal with on a daily basis. The idea is that they can use the Moving Meditations to help pull themselves back into alignment quickly until they can get to class. R.E.D. Warrior® Inspirational Conversations are all about keeping ourselves in a positive place about who we are and the skin that we live in. R.E.D. Warrior® Fitness, Moving Meditations, and Inspirational Conversations—those are the tools that R.E.D. Warrior Nation provides as an empowerment company. R.E.D. Warrior® – Instructor Training Manual 5 THE STORY BEHIND THE R.E.D. WARRIOR® WORKOUT The R.E.D. Warrior® Workout is more than just another fitness format. It is a Practice designed to help participants take responsibility for their workout, question their “why” for training and accelerate their success. The class is a fusion of martial arts and military training. The R.E.D. Warrior® Workout is taught in rounds. Each five-minute round represents one form of martial arts or bootcamp/military training regimen followed by a two-minute active recovery period. Each round also includes motivational guidance to help participants overcome their self-imposed limitations and realize their potential physically and mentally. R.E.D Warrior® Fitness empowers individuals to recognize and achieve their limitless potential. Through this unique combination of fitness and martial arts, the participant develops self- confidence, clarity, and passion to break through self-imposed limits and reach new heights. In addition to the fitness elements inherent in executing this movement, there is a strong mind-body component present in both martial arts and military training. In martial arts, the more you can quiet your mind, the more powerful you become physically. If we have tools to help us when we get into confrontational environments or situations, we can call on what we learn in R.E.D. Warrior® to quiet our mind, source our power, and move forward. Similarly, on the military training side, when training is complete, our bodies are stronger, but the real strength is in our heads. If you are deployed into an environment where you don't have your everyday comforts with you, it’s important to have tools to call on in order to be able to quiet your mind and do what you need to do. But this idea doesn’t apply only to the military – many of us feel like this in life, and we can use these same tools to empower ourselves, using the mentality of military training combined with the functionality of the physical movement. 6 R.E.D. Warrior® – Instructor Training Manual The R.E.D. Warrior® program is designed to enhance our participants’ ability to listen to their bodies and understand what works for them – both in and outside of class. We do this through what we call States of Mind™, which provide options for the participants in each round. There are three States of Mind™, and one is not necessarily easier than another; they just require a different skill set. The States of Mind are explained in more detail later when we break down the class format and explain each round. Through our States of Mind™ discipline, students are empowered to make training choices that serve them. The R.E.D. Warrior® Workout enables participants to really listen to their own bodies, versus simply having an expectation that they should follow the instructor. Not everyone can do everything the instructor does, and often participants feel like they are failing if they can’t do what the instructor does (which, of course, is silly because as instructors it is our job so we have to be able to do everything) – but participants still feel as though they are failing and say things like, “I wish I could do it as well as you can do it.” In R.E.D. Warrior®, we encourage participants to listen to their bodies and do what works for them. So how did this all come about? R.E.D. Warrior® was created by Jani Roberts, an entrepreneur with 35 years of experience in the health and wellness field. Jani is the co-founder and CEO of RED Warrior Nation, LLC. Her husband, Johnny Roberts, is co-founder and President. In Jani’s 35 years as a fitness instructor, she had found it challenging to get people to take responsibility for their workout. That makes sense, as there are often 20-30 students or more in a class and only one instructor, so Jani would try to get students into personal training or into an environment where they could learn more. But not all participants want to do that. The idea in R.E.D. Warrior® is that this format can be taught in a way where we encourage participants to take a lot of responsibility for their own workout, and it would be done in a way that they actually could take control over. They would start to understand their mind body connection.
