    From a professional standpoint, kung fu is my JOB.

    There is only one other thing in life I can do successfully without totally screwing up, and that's being a concert violinist.

    Even then, I'm so innately combative that I've managed to make enemies across the globe simply by lifting bow to string. I don't fit into the modern world of classical music, being "traditional" in my methods and personality.

    I have a naturally jumpy and hyperactive ADHD personality, but it works great in kung fu teaching. There, I can flit from student to student with full concentration and stamina. I'm at my most natural when I'm moving, and moving FAST.

    Hopefully, my students will enjoy what I show them. If not, I won't feel bad if they walk away. And for those that stay, I hopefully can make it worth their while - and money.

    I Have been Enlightened

    Kung fu is in essence is knowing what to do.It is only limited by us the Artists.During the learning process you experience a host of emotions and sensations.How you deal with and learn from these is also part of the basic training. If the student gives in to the emotions and sensations the student may look for short-cuts or ways around the training.If this happens it is the job of the kung fu family the kwoon to assist the student in keeping focus.This focus helps in overall training and Energy development.Thus the first and most basic things are things that require the most attention and these basics help to created an Energetic foundation.

    Thank you all for giving me you enlightened responses.

    Well, pass me the purple Kool-aid, family. I'm a doubter from the get-go. Unless I thoroughly get to criticize everything, I don't count on it.
