Saber Kinetics · Wellness Licensing Division of LSTA

Four licensed wellness programs.
One operator conversation.
The right one for your facility.

Saber Kinetics is the wellness licensing division of the Light Sword Training Academy: four clinically-grounded, lineage-rooted programs, each purpose-built for a specific operator and population. Deploy one into your existing facility. Each program arrives with curriculum, instructor certification, platform access, and the evidence base your clients, surveyors, and funders expect.

What Saber Kinetics Is

Not a program to sell.
A division to license.

Saber Kinetics is the wellness arm of the Light Sword Training Academy. Built by operators who ran these programs on real facility floors, with real client populations, before we ever offered them to anyone else. You are not buying a curriculum. You are licensing a proven operating system and deploying it inside your existing business.

It is not

A turnkey franchise

You already have the space, the clients, and the operator infrastructure. Saber Kinetics is an add-on programming layer, not a business model you build from scratch.

It is not

A generic wellness product

Every program is rooted in documented lineage: LSTA's nine combat forms, NASM credentialing, Five Element TCM, or Grandmaster Zhu Tiancai's Chen Style transmission. No generic content. No invented methodology.

It is

A licensed revenue stream

Four distinct programs, each with its own operator track, institutional B2B path, and platform deployment. You add programming to a facility that already runs. We provide the IP, the certification, and the infrastructure.

The Four Programs

One population.
One license. One lane.

Each Saber Kinetics program is designed for a specific operator type and a specific client population. They are built to be mutually exclusive in their target market, so you are never competing within the same division for the same buyer. Each program links out to its operator-specific licensing page and its own deeper resource. Dragon Cane Master operates as a separate Sifu Armstrong authority brand with its own institutional licensing infrastructure.

Program 01 · Movement Therapy

LSTA Saber Flow

The art of the light sword, slowed to the pace of healing.
For PT/OT practices, rehab centers, hospital outpatient programs, adaptive sports operators
Population Lane
Bodies in active rehabilitation: post-surgical, injury recovery, neurological rehab, chronic pain management. All ages. Works alongside a licensed clinical care team. Does not serve aging adults in long-term care or enrichment settings → that is Dragon Cane Master's lane.

The LSTA nine-form curriculum slowed to a therapeutic register: breath-paced, low-impact, condition-aware. A weightless blade becomes the proprioceptive tool your clinical team already knows works. Structured enough to bill alongside, distinct enough to differentiate your practice.

PT/OT partnership ready All ages · adaptive Nine-form curriculum Outcomes trackable
If your population is adults 50+ in residential or enrichment settings, Dragon Cane Master is the right license. Purpose-built for that population with clinical evidence and institutional deployment.
Program 02 · Saber-Based Fitness

Total Saber Fit

Real strength. Real energy. A blade of light in your hands.
For CrossFit affiliates, fitness studios, YMCA program directors, gym owners, corporate wellness operators
Population Lane
Active adults and teens seeking structured fitness with martial arts discipline. Performance-oriented, no combat, no clinical component. The program your members' spouses, teenagers, and partners will show up for. Does not serve rehabilitation or aging populations → route those to Saber Flow or Dragon Cane Master.

Programming designed by Sifu Julliana Armstrong, an NASM-certified trainer: 30-minute, high-intensity, low-impact sessions built on the LSTA combat forms. TSF operators in our pilot cohort are seeing strong early retention.

Designed by an NASM-certified trainer 30-min HILT sessions Strong early pilot retention Online + in-person
If your facility serves active recovery or rehabilitation populations, Saber Flow is the right fit, the same lineage, slowed to a clinical register.
Program 03 · Moving Meditation

Saber Chi

Internal energy mastery. A light sword as the extension of qi.
For yoga studios, qigong teachers, meditation centers, holistic wellness practitioners, retreat operators
Population Lane
Adults seeking internal practice, mindfulness, and energy cultivation through structured movement. Wellness-oriented, not clinical. Active and mobile clients who want a progressive mastery system, not a single technique. Does not operate in clinical or institutional settings → that belongs to Dragon Cane Master.

A moving-meditation practice built on the Five Element system of Chinese medicine (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water), expressed through ten progressive levels of light sword movement. The differentiator for a yoga studio or qigong practice is the mastery architecture: ten levels means ten reasons to stay enrolled. Not a single class. A curriculum.

Five Element TCM Ten-level mastery path Qi extension training Instructor certification
If your clients are seniors in a long-term care or enrichment setting, Dragon Cane Master carries the TCM lineage for that population. With the clinical evidence base and institutional deployment they require.
Separate Authority Brand
Program 04 · Senior & Clinical Wellness

Dragon Cane Master

Your cane is not a limitation. It is your instrument.
For senior living facilities, VA wellness programs, CCRCs, OT maintenance programs, clinical wellness departments
Population Lane
Adults 50 and over in residential, enrichment, or clinical care settings. Institutional licensing. Deployed under your facility's brand with outcomes reporting, instructor certification, and the peer-reviewed evidence base your families, surveyors, and grant funders require. Does not overlap with active rehabilitation → Saber Flow serves that population.

A lineage-grounded Tai Chi cane practice built on Dr. Jesse Tsao's published curriculum and the traditional transmission of Grandmaster Zhu Tiancai. One of four recognized grandmasters of Chen Style Tai Chi. The evidence base (Li, Fisher, Harmer & Shirai, 2003: funded by NIMH and NIA) draws from research and practices informed by organizations such as AGS, BGS, and AAOS. This is not a generic chair exercise class. It is the program your institution can sign onto with documented authority.

PhD curriculum lineage Grandmaster transmission NIMH/NIA-funded evidence Outcomes reporting included
Dragon Cane Master operates as a fully independent Sifu Armstrong authority brand with its own institutional licensing infrastructure. Full details, proposal requests, and Dragon Sifu Certification are available at DragonCaneMaster.com.
Match to Your Facility

You already have
the room. We bring the program.

The right license depends on who you already serve. Use this as a first-pass guide. Every licensing conversation starts with a single call. We will tell you exactly which program fits your population and what deployment looks like inside your specific operation.

CrossFit affiliate · gym · fitness studio Active adults + teens 13+, fitness-motivated Differentiation from competing gyms, Saturday revenue, retention below 80% Total Saber Fit
YMCA · recreation center · parks department Families, teens, adults across age ranges Teen programming gap, underused floor time, need a program that serves all ages without a specialist Total Saber Fit · Saber Tag
Martial arts school · dojo Adults and teens already training a martial art Revenue ceiling on mat fees, student attrition at 6-month mark, need a second revenue stream that adds to the existing art Total Saber Fit · Saber Flow

The Common Standard

Four programs.
One operating standard.

The programs are different. What stands behind them is not. Every Saber Kinetics license delivers the same four things: documented lineage, a named master behind the curriculum, a measurable progression system, and deployment infrastructure through AcadevoFit. Backed by Holistically Simple, the parent company behind the platform, so you do not have to build the operational back-end from scratch.

Documented Lineage, Not Invented Methodology

Every program carries a source. LSTA's nine combat forms for Saber Flow. NASM credentialing for Total Saber Fit. Five Element TCM for Saber Chi. Dr. Jesse Tsao's published curriculum and Grandmaster Zhu Tiancai's transmission for Dragon Cane Master. When a client, surveyor, or funder asks where this comes from, there is a real answer.

A Named Master Behind Every Curriculum

No anonymous content libraries. Sifu Julliana Armstrong (NASM) for Total Saber Fit. Sifu Edward Armstrong for Saber Flow and Saber Chi. Dr. Jesse Tsao (PhD) and Grandmaster Zhu Tiancai for Dragon Cane Master. Every program has a face and a credential attached to it. Which is what makes it licensable at an institutional level.

Measurable Progression, Which Means Retention

Saber Flow tracks range, balance, and session consistency. Total Saber Fit shows strong retention in early pilot data. Saber Chi runs ten progressive levels. Dragon Cane Master maps four forms across sixteen modules with outcomes reporting. Every program gives your clients a reason to come back because there is a next step visible in front of them.

Deployed Through the AcadevoFit Platform

All Saber Kinetics licensing runs through AcadevoFit. The software platform built for established health, fitness, and wellness operators, backed by Holistically Simple, the parent company behind the Armstrong ecosystem's software. Scheduling, client management, automated billing, outcomes reporting, and curriculum delivery in one place. You do not build the infrastructure. You use ours.

Built on a Federally Contracted Martial Art

Saber Kinetics is not a wellness brand built on theory. It is the wellness arm of the Light Sword Training Academy, which has held federal contracts at U.S. military installations, operating across a network of licensed academies, with a federation-registered network that has run these programs in front of real operator populations since 2015.

One Relationship. Four Expansion Paths.

Most operators start with one license. As their client base grows or diversifies, adjacent programs become available. A fitness studio that licenses Total Saber Fit can add Saber Flow when they open a rehab track. A martial arts school can add Saber Tag. An OT practice that runs Saber Flow can refer aging clients to the Dragon Cane Master network. The programs are built to hand off to each other, not compete.

The Platform Layer

Your program runs.
Your operation doesn't break.

Every Saber Kinetics license is deployed through AcadevoFit. The software platform built for established wellness operators, backed by Holistically Simple, the parent company behind the Armstrong software ecosystem. And where your services are delivered by licensed or credentialed providers, they can run on the HIPAA-compliant Power Portal, the clinical layer of the same ecosystem. You are not buying software separately. It is included in the licensing relationship. Which is what keeps your workload from increasing when you add a new program.

Platform Infrastructure

AcadevoFit

The software platform every Saber Kinetics licensee operates on. Replaces the disconnected tool stack most operators run. CRM, billing, scheduling, email, contracts, automation, curriculum delivery. With a single platform built specifically for movement-based programming operators. Every Saber Kinetics licensee logs into AcadevoFit.

The Company Behind the Platform

Holistically Simple

The parent company that builds and stands behind AcadevoFit and the rest of the Armstrong ecosystem's software. Holistically Simple is not a platform you log into. It's the company behind the platform your license runs on, and behind the tools that support session delivery, student progression, rank tracking, outcomes reporting, and wearable integration.

Visit HolisticallySimple.com →
HIPAA Clinical Layer · Credentialed Providers

Power Portal

For Saber Kinetics services delivered by a licensed or credentialed provider, the HIPAA-compliant Power Portal carries the clinical layer: telehealth, biometrics, health-risk assessment, the personal health record, and outcome tracking. The compliant home for clinical delivery that the fitness layer is not built to hold. By Holistically Simple, deployed under your license.

Layer 01

Curriculum Delivery

Your licensed program's full video library and session sequences. Delivered through AcadevoFit, the platform your license runs on. Clients access it. You track it. Nothing builds separately.

Layer 02

Client Management + Billing

CRM, automated billing, intake forms, contracts, and membership management, all handled inside AcadevoFit. Adding a Saber Kinetics program does not mean adding a new software subscription.

Layer 03

Student Progression Tracking

AcadevoFit tracks every client's progression through the licensed curriculum: sessions completed, rank achieved, next steps surfaced. The data that makes your retention argument credible.

Layer 04

Outcomes Reporting

For clinical and institutional operators (Dragon Cane Master and Saber Flow), the platform generates the outcomes reports your surveyors, grant agencies, and clinical teams need. Built in, not bolted on.

Layer 05

Marketing Automation

Email sequences, SMS follow-ups, and referral workflows built into AcadevoFit, so your new program generates leads from your existing member base without a manual campaign every month.

Layer 06

Wearable + Health Integration

Fitbit, Garmin, and supported wearable data feeds into the client dashboard via AcadevoFit. Giving operators a complete picture of activity between sessions and clients a reason to stay consistent.

Licensing Tracks

One call.
We find the right structure.

The Operator Path

Already running
a real operation?
That's the qualification.

We do not license to people building from zero. The operators who get the most from Saber Kinetics already have clients, a floor, and a working business model. They are adding a program, not starting one. If that is you, the path from conversation to deployment is short.

1

One qualifying call

Tell us your facility type, your client population, and the business problem you are trying to solve. We identify the right program and confirm the fit before anything else happens.

2

License the program and certify your instructors

License fee, instructor certification, curriculum access, and AcadevoFit platform onboarding, handled in sequence. Your existing staff can be certified and running sessions within weeks, not months.

3

Deploy into your existing schedule

Your program, your branding, your floor time. Saber Kinetics deploys as an add-on to what you already run, not a replacement. We are the infrastructure. You are the operator.

4

Scale with the division behind you

As your program grows, adjacent licenses become available. One program becomes two. Two becomes a wellness division inside your facility. The Saber Kinetics programs are designed to hand off to each other as your client base diversifies.

You run the operation. We bring the program that scales it.

One licensing conversation. We identify the right fit for your population, walk through what deployment looks like inside your specific facility, and tell you exactly what the investment looks like. If it is not the right fit, we will tell you that too.

Saber Kinetics programs are wellness and therapeutic movement systems and are not a substitute for professional medical care. Saber Flow and Dragon Cane Master are designed to work alongside, not replace, a licensed clinical care team. Consult your healthcare provider before beginning any movement program. Dragon Cane Master operates as a separate Sifu Armstrong authority brand at DragonCaneMaster.com with its own institutional licensing infrastructure.
