Comments:  The Indian Club instructor have I worked with personally so far is Army Maguire of Agelesstrength.Com. Indian Clubs have been around for thousands of years and are starting to become popular again--at one point in America, Indian Clubs were used extensively in gymnasiums, schools, military academies, and even in churches.  I'm supportive of them because I believe they have both restorative or corrective potential plus can be a great workout too if that's what you want.  I'll be adding to this section in the months to come...swing on!
