Facing one of the six foot tall opponents (target towers), you see the other two opponents at either side in your peripheral vision. You are in a competition of three against one! Each tower has ten targets, any one of these thirty targets could be the one to randomly activate. You never know which one of the computerized opponents will draw your action!

A gong sounds the start of your session. An explosion of light and sound draws your attention to the active opponent. As you turn toward its direction your mind searches for the location of the lighted target on the tower. With cat-like reflexes, you strike the target with the staff in your hands. A second tone confirms you scoring a point before the target darkened. Another explosion of light and sound causes you to lunge across the arena bending to strike the lower target. As quickly as you strike one target another one activates. Your opponent, Makoto, is pacing you!

You are relentlessly drawn in to focusing continuously on finding and striking the targets to the exclusion of all other thoughts. Your movements are a dance, your breathing is rhythmic as you slip into an automatic flow state. You move, lunging, stretching, bending, twisting, and burning calories rapidly. Your mind is clear and calm, your spirit is energized. You feel transported beyond time and space...then you remember how your "friend" ate all your Pocky. You attack the towers with a renewed frenzy!

Makoto....it’s not just a game....it’s Catharsis!

As you can see, we're going to have a strong gaming program this year!!
