Yoga & meditation lessons are also available. What training format does Four Winds utilize? When Tony created Four Winds, he wanted to offer a personal training system w/o contracts that was tailored to each person. After six years of training in many different styles, including both hard & soft styles, Tony realized many people did not have the time to attend regular group classes and hard earned money was wasted on contracts. Therefore, he wanted to people to have the opportunity to schedule their own lessons, and choose the curriculum, which was best for them. Four Winds' lessons are an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes long. Clients purchase lessons in 5, 10, or 20 blocks with discounts for the more lessons purchased; there is no expiration on the lessons, and they can be used at any time convenient for both the client and Four Winds Staff.

Fitness in Media, PA or at the client's residence, whichever is most convenient for the client. For more information on the Media location visit www. kpfitness.com.

Philosophy By studying the traditional and modern forms of martial arts as well as the “mental arts” (yoga and meditation), a student can hope to achieve a sense of accomplishment, peace, and harmony. Accomplishment – a person has satisfaction of over-coming tangible and real obstacles to their training; be it a punching bag or a physical limitation. Peace – once person has a sense of accomplishment, they begin to reconcile their strengths and weaknesses as a part of who they are as a human being. Harmony – a peaceful person then works in accord with others to the benefit of society as a whole. |
