Spirit2Power At The Martial Arts Show 2011, Birmingham NEC

    Director Gulrukh Khan with Spirit2Power Star Martial Artist Zara Phythian   It was great to be able to premiere the trailer for Spirit2Power at The Martial Arts Show Live in May 2011. There were big names there and legends such as Cynthia Rothrock, known as the Queen of Martial Arts and widely considered to be the female equivalent to Bruce Lee. Also Joe Lewis…the Karate Legend. The whole of the NEC hall was full of top class performers and Martial Artists such as Silvio Simac, Julian Dales’s Lionance team who opened the show with their colourful performance, Julie Kitchen the World champion in the ring doing Muay Tai Kickboxing and the Kwoklyn Wan (the brother of TV style Guru Gok Wan), who was doing fierce cage fighting, though in reality he is the gentlest and sweetest Soul… Zara Phythian was also hosting and I managed to say a small speech near the end of the show up on stage with Zara, which I understand is part of the Martial Arts Show Live DVD now out for sale that it is hard to recall all of them. Needless to say, I was lucky to meet Silvio, Julian, Julie and Cynthia,

Cynthia Rothrock, Queen of Martial Arts Movies

The shoot with Cynthia Rothrock was really dynamic.It was a pleasure to work with such a professional, who on top of it all was also a very humble and lovely lady. After meeting her at the martial arts show, she emailed me to say that she would like to appear in the film but was leaving in two days. I got my skates on and hurriedly got her flights changed. I also managed to get sponsorship from my local health club Esporta for the use of their studio to film her action moves in and from The Marriott Hotel, Swiss Cottage who let us film her interview in their private lounge. Renowned Joseph Koniak, whose Grandmother founded Brown’s, the Designer store chain, has a salon at Esporta and is an avid martial artist. He kindly offered sponsorship to style Cynthia’s hair for the shoot and also agreed to take part in Spirit2Power. Premier Inn at Hampstead offered us sponsorship for Cynthia’s one night stay with breakfast and a lovely reception with flowers and lunch for her..so we enjoyed a leisurely meal after the shoot to catch up and get to know each other a bit. I then dropped her back at

New Spirit2Power Martial Arts Docu-Film Trailer Released

We’re proud to be able to present the new trailer for Spirit2Power, featuring some of the individuals we spoke to during filming, including Martial Arts mega-star and 13 times World Champion, Sensei Zara Phythian, Grandmaster Choi, Danny Paradise – Yoga Guru to the Hollywood Elite, and BBC presenter, actor, and performance artist, Mat Fraser – an avid karate practitioner despite being born with phocomelia of both arms, due to his mother being prescribed thalidomide during her pregnancy. Spirit2Power examines the Spirit of Martial Arts through stunning Martial Arts performances, exquisite forms and beautiful Katas, but also looks closely into the Spirit through mental discipline, spiritual benefits and focus, how Martial Arts bring together mind, body and soul to create a whole greater than the sum of its’ constituent parts. Our Martial Artists have spent decades training their minds and bodies to near super-human levels so they are able to do incredible things you and I would find impossible. Through the Martial Arts they have also discovered a new stronger sense of spirituality, a focus to their lives, and are driven to seek true enlightenment. If you can see this, then you might need a Flash Player upgrade or you need to
