T.e.a.m. = Together Everyone Achieves

My Acting Is Atrocious, To Say The Least. But I've Found That It's Not Acting That People Are Concerned About, It's Your Presence.

People Study Martial Arts For Many Reasons, Sometimes All The Wrong Reasons. For Example, I Have Had Potential Students Come To My Dojo With A Belligerent And Cocky Attitude. When I Ask Why They Want To Study My Art, Their Response Has Indicated To Me That Their Goal Is To Learn To Fight, Which Is The Antithesis Of The Philosophy I Hope To Instill: I Want Them To Know How To Defend Themselves If Necessary, But To Avoid Fighting Whenever Possible Because They Will Have Nothing To Prove By Fighting.

I Think Setting A Goal, Getting A Visual Image Of What It Is You Want. You've Got To See What It Is You Want To Achieve Before You Can Pursue It.

Karate Is The Best Thing You Can Do For Your Child.

The Only Time We Fail Is When We Stop Trying.
