Community Prize Giveaway II
November 12, 2009 | Author: Matthew | Filed under: MMA,Martial Arts,Recent Events
Hey everyone, it’s an early Christmas here at IkigaiWay. I’m pleased to bring you the second installment of my Community Prize Giveaway series!
One of the things that makes the internets so great is the massive amount of interaction possible. People with similar interests and passions can get together and truly benefit from one another. IkigaiWay has an awesome group of commenters and readers, and that is something I appreciate greatly. In addition, there are two quickly growing communities on Facebook and Twitter that are augmenting the message I think we are trying to spread on a website like this (that the martial way is a noble and worthy pursuit!). That being said, I’d like to continue to encourage/thank all the readers here with a giveaway of some really cool prizes.
How to Win
Winning one of the prizes I have lined up is really quite simple. Leave a comment here, on Facebook, or on Twitter. Commenters are submitted to my random drawing program which selects a winner. The contest will run for appx 1 month…starting….now.
What is There to Win?
For this giveaway I have the pleasure of teaming up with the good folks at TheMMAZone.net. Tony and his team are working hard to accommodate online shoppers and are offering a bunch of quality products, a few of which he was kind enough to provide for this giveaway. For the traditional artists out there, don’t worry – MMAZone has gear for people of all different styles.
Give em a visit!
Twitter Prize
The Revgear Pro Spar Foam Kicks go to a commenter who is a part of the IkigaiWay twitter community.
The Revgear kicks far outperform more classic foam dipped foot gear. Foam dipped have the potential to crack and wear over time, where as the Revgear feature a more flexible brushed surface while providing great protection. Top quality elastic is also used for the hook and loop closure.
To qualify, join the crew on twitter!
Facebook Prize
The Facebook community is growing rapidly indeed, and I have a very cool prize for anyone who joins the conversation there. Check out the Tiger Claw Dual Focus Mitts.
The Tiger Claw Mitts are extended all the way down to the lower forearm to provide enhanced protection. the striking surface is thickly padded and features a very comfortable hand compartment for the trainer/partner. Dual wrist loops ensure stable usage.
To qualify, join the Facebook crew!
IkigaiWay Website Prize
The last prize is dedicated to anyone who leaves a comment right here on the website itself. I think you’re really going to like these – Tiger Claw Muay Thai Striking Pads.
These serious pads are designed to resist the crushing kicks and blows of Muay Thai kickboxers. They feature thick, durable padding with a quality leather covering. The bag is secured through one comfort handle and two wrist strap. Useful for a wide variety of training regiments!
To qualify, leave a comment on any post you see coming up for the next month (counts on old posts as well).
Thanks Again!
I’ll be coming out with some new content asap, and I try to keep things updated on Facebook and Twitter daily. Hope to see you around.

Always love free stuff =) Those muay thai pads are awesome, btw. One of my previous schools had some and they performed very nicely.
oooo free stuff!
That is always appreciated, plus the strike pads will be alot nicer than stacking phonebooks…
Those thai pads would go great in my home training centre i'm making. Shin guards strapped to a post starts to hurt after a while
Free is good and you're giving away such nice stuff, too! Pick me! Pick me!!
The Thai pads look very well built .Tiger Claw makes very good products.It would be very nice to win a pair…
Yea those are definitely cool. I was pretty pumped about it.
Haha, I'm sure about tht jaic!
This is enough to get me out of lurker mode.
Great blog you have. I enjoy reading, and I find seeing another perspective on things helps enliven my own training and keeps it fresh and exciting. Thanks for the inspiration.
Glad to have you out in the open Carla! Thanks for being a part of the site.
Very cool Prize Giveaways
Even if you don't win a prize you still come out a winner with cool links and articles:O) Seems like a win win situation to me.
A good idea for you to be giving away gifts like this. The thai pads look good. Also the forarm focus pads are soething I have not seen before. Very Interesting
Nice one, Matt! Very cool giveaway. I'll be in to win those focus mitts, they look great.
Sweeeet!!!
Please. please, please, pick me…I wants you my precious…

Awesome prizes ! They've gotten me out of lurker mode too !
Glad to hear it!

Great idea, having a contest and all. Some great prizes too.
Nice give-away. I lurk too, but I guess its a good time to show the love for the site…I appreciate it!
I love this site! Even if I don't win anything, this site is the bomb!!!!!
Nice giveaway. Great site.
I appreciate everyone coming out for the event! Glad to see you.
Oooooh, muay thai pads! There is a judoka I work out with who used to do MMA and is thinking of getting back into it, but nobody has anything but a heavy bag, so muay thai pads would be awesome!
Free stuff is always good.. but free stuff of this quality is really sweet!
[...] a reminder, there is currently a contest going on. The fine people at MMA Zone offered up some pretty cool prizes to give away to fans of ikigaiway. [...]
Phonebooks!! Thanks for the reminder. I know where I can get several!
Definitely quality items.
Although, I'm old fashioned and use homemade items…and never put the money down.
Giveaway contests! I love them. I have read your manual for beginning/intermediate students and it was so good–very thorough.
That's great Tracy, I'm glad it was valuable!
