CENTURY Martial Arts - a history of martial arts: Founded in 1976 by American martial arts master Michael Dillard, Century began as a one-man operation. Today, we are a company of martial artists with a steadily growing international team of over 250 employees. Our heavy bags are proudly manufactured in the USA. At this point, I’d like to breakdown some of the subtle nuances of how to Shadowbox correctly. Shadowboxing By fully extending your strikes, you’ll be readying yourself to follow through with your punches so you’ll be reaching maximum power. Furthermore, you’ll be ensuring that you’re not going to hyperextend your elbow or dislocate your shoulder by punching wrong. Further, if your your chin is down when you punch then you’re hitting your target without seeing your fist make impact. If you can directly see your fist hit your target; then your chin is up too high.

Conversely, if your chin is down then your hands should be around your eyebrows. And thus, above your line of sight. CENTURY strives to be the global destination to discover, explore and experience the life changing benefits of training martial arts.

When we are practicing on a heavy bag and when we’re training on focus mitts, there’s a target that stops our strikes. Clearly, you want to fully extend your punches so that you achieve the maximum extension of your reach and power. Unfortunately, completely extending your punches isn’t immediately obvious. The settings you specify here are stored in the "local storage" of your device. The settings will be remembered for the next time you visit our online shop. You can change these settings at any time (fingerprint icon in the bottom left corner). Shadowboxing as a way to perfect your form is absolutely essential and is one of the best ways for beginners to get good fast.

The driving force behind our passion for martial arts is that many Century employees are martial artists themselves. Our founder, Mike Dillard, won two National Karate Championships during his active martial arts career. A great way to train at home is to use a wall as a guide to show you that your leg is as straight as possible.

Earlier, I pointed out that there was two ways to Shadowbox. One way was for form. A second way was to imitate sparring. Century has its own research and development team dedicated to innovation. Pioneering the industry, Century Martial Arts revolutionized the martial arts and fitness market in 1995 with the invention of the first freestanding training bag, the legendary Original Wavemaster®. With over 40 years of product experience, Century is one of the most renowned brands for martial arts equipment. Great achievements for our TEAM CENTURY athletes Tina Baloh and Jodie Brown at the Olympic European Games! In collaboration with the Bruce Lee Association, we are pleased to present the XXL Wavemaster Bruce Lee Edition with a brand new design and color combination from his suit in "Game of Death".

Ultimately, if you can see your hands when you’re Shadowboxing, then your hands are too low. Plus your chin is too high and you’re training to punch a little kid. 😳 When you’re Shadowboxing, you shouldn’t be able to see your hands. Sounds strange however, starting at your hands as you punch is a common mistake most beginners make. Unquestionably, this is very difficult. To do this right, you need deep focus and a vivid imagination. Along with the fact that it just feels weird at first 🤣 In our current blog post, we focus on Leon Jay, who is traveling around the world to spread Small Circle JuJitsu and Small Circle Judo.
