As the time rapidly approaches the beginning of the 2005, I want to wish all of my martial arts brothers and sisters the very best for the New Year.

Whatever you train, regardless of style or lineage or whatever, I wish you the best in your training for the days ahead.

For all who are suffering in the world, from the recent Tsunamis in Asia or anywhere that there is man-made or natural disasters in our world. We are all connected. When one of suffers, we all suffer. I pray for peace and joy to fill your lives in the year ahead.

All the Best for 2005,
