Biography of the Author “Scott Bolinger”                                                                                                                         I grew up in Alliance Nebraska. Graduated from Hemingford Nebraska in 1987. After High School I joined the US Airforce and was stationed in San Antonio Texas for basic training. I attended Tech school at Sheppard AirForce base in Witchatafalls, TX. My study was in Civil Engineering as a “structural specialists.” I was stationed in Zweibrucken Germany after tech school and assigned to the “26 Civil Engineering Squadron.” There, I received my structural technician certification. After I was honorably discharged from the AirForce I joined the Army National Guard that was based out of Alliance Nebraska. The Alliance unit was a howitzer unit.      I studied Business management, information technology, motorcycle mechanic, welding, realty, fitness and Nutrition. In 2018 I decided to go back to college and get a Bachelor of Science degree. I went to college at the University of Nebraska at Omaha with a major in Political Science and a minor in Criminology with a concentration in government affairs and civic engagement.         I started in politics around 2003 by volunteering as a Planning Commissioner. From that, I seen how our local government was being run and seen some grey area politics. The way they treated the people was not something I would do. The way the government was ran did not feel quite right. Seeing my own city council trying to take peoples lands in a very unethical way, spurred me to run for office. I felt that we needed people in office that were there to help people. To make sure they know that they have someone who will fight for them.

Masters Image

A true master is a master of their own art. Mastering flexibility and adaptability.

Mastering your own art is what makes you, you. A style of martial arts is of one image of one’s self. I created Warrior Rage KickBoxing. It is who I am, how I fight, and of myself.

Mastering flexibility is to be flexible to change, which coincides with adaptability.

Mastering adaptability – you’re not going to fight everyone the same way all the time. You may have to adjust your fighting stance or techniques to meet your needs to come out on top. This is were consistent training, the persistent hunger for knowledge, and the flexibility to change to better your style will create a skilled and unique technical fighter.

––––––––

A lot of the old styles of training and techniques are good, but so are the new training techniques. Some instructors feel that training in only the old styles is best, while others forget the old styles and go all new. I prefer to do both training and teaching in the old and new styles. You limit yourself and your students if you think only one-sided.

Quotes to live by

There’s always a possibility of

adding or getting closer to

perfecting your skills. Even from

learning from a beginner.

That’s why I’ve always said that,

my best teachers are my students.

Scott Bolinger

I don’t expect my students to

fight the way I do. But I do

expect them to learn what I know

and put that to use to help their specific style

Scott Bolinger

My theory in Weaponry

Learning the Nunchaku is something I believe helped me in achieving the expertise that I have achieved today. It’s something out of the ordinary training and it’s something that I was better at than a lot of people. It’s also part of the training that I think helped make my hand techniques faster as well as gain the focus I needed.

When learning weaponry and being a master of a weapon, you consider that for every screw up there’s a new move to be made. For every technique made, there’s an opposite that can be achieved.

Be open-minded and persistent when teaching weaponry or practicing weapons. I always like to crank up some tunes when working out on weapons. Weapons are a good way to add another workout and they will also help gain speed and coordination in your hands.

Introduction

Hello

My name is Scott Bolinger, founder of the Warrior Rage Kickboxing Style and author of this book. I’ll start off this book with an introduction of myself, and my experiences, and hopefully, you’ll have a better understanding of what it takes to be a successful fighter and/or coach whether it be for Karate, Tae Kwon Do, Kickboxing, Boxing MMA or enhancing other sports.  A lot of the explanations or examples in this book are in the fashion of a coach talking to a student.

While I was growing up, as a kid I did have many interests in different sports. My first sport was baseball and gymnastics. About 7th grade I got into weight lifting. My father who was the 1965 Mr. Nebraska taught me the proper way to lift weights. Then 8th and 9th grade I participated in wrestling. I started using martial arts weapons when I was 15. Mainly messing around with throwing stars and nunchakus. But I didn’t get enrolled in a martial arts school until I was 16 years old. And martial arts came very naturally to me. With the combination of weight lifting and martial arts, it made me a faster and more powerful fighter. I was able to see a punch beginning to happen and pop up a sidekick or roundhouse kick faster than most people can throw a punch. The first art I studied was Shotokan Karate. I studied that for about 7 months, then went to just training myself for quite a while. I also studied Tae-kwon-Do, Kenpo, Jukaido, Boxing, and Chinese KickBoxing at various schools. But my primary art was always Shotokan.

I started competing in point tournament fights after I received my orange belt in Shotokan. I did try a few tournaments competing with weapons, kata, and Kumite, but I just found for myself that Kumite was my expertise. I was more comfortable with kumite because I was able to be zoned out so the crowd never bothered me, but when I did weapons or form I was always a little nervous. One of the things that helped me in my fighting skills is that I had 5 buddies that I always trained and sparred with about every day. I believe in your development as a fighter, having one or more training partners would be a big help. That way you’re not just doing the standard 2-day work out per week. To
