Tokyo Joe made a guest appearance at MacNeil Lounge for the Yoga: Beyond the Mat winterim today. Tokyo Joe (Bobby LaMattina) is a 10th degree black belt and runs self-defense courses for a living. Mr. Joe did an interactive self-defense lesson which is basically yoga on steroids, moving ten times faster and much more strenuous. He talked about focus, concentrating, and discipline, and how that plays a very big role in his lifestyle. At the end, Joe did a presentation with his Bo Staff which was very impressive. He has won many awards in competitive scenarios, and he is a very good role model. I think it was a great idea bringing in someone so impressively successful and with great morals for the students to look up to.
