I think the most remarkable thing about the tournament was that when I had finished, all of the ancient Chinese men in the audience stood up and applauded, saying: "Surely this is the true Shaolin martial art!"
LOL....

Hey KC...been away for a bit and can't believe what's going on in the other threads....crazy......Wook kinda walked into a mouse trap......if I'm not mistaken weren't you taking up for Cujo a couple of weeks ago.....maybe if he runs into the right SD guy his a$$ will be handed to him and he will poof out of here.
Ross is an a$$ and loves to stir up ****......those threads read like a bunch of elementry students ****ed off because their circle jerk went bad.....doesn't look good for anybody.....the vid's posted of CTS ( who I respect ) were not anything out of the ordinary....GMS is a lot more impressive to me. Anyway don't let yourself get drug into a pi$$ing contest with the idiots. See ya soon,

Goju out of respect for Gene and the forum I am not responding. If youi are ever in Tennessee I will be glad to give you a place to crash. KC

Hey Goju. No sweat. In the piece you quoted, I didn't say that you were critical of Wook. I said that you were a participant in a war of words with KC, which I think is a fair statement. I then said that Wook made a comment and that his vids were subsequently criticized. I didn't specify by whom. So, to sum up, I'm definitely not accusing you of criticizing Wook's vids. Now back to your scheduled flame war. Peace.
I have been thinking, There are basically 3 different schools of SD. There is the west schools , Calif etc, then there is Kentucky, Texas, Indiana, Iowa and that area which also has schools in DC, Louisiana and Florida. Then there is Tennessee, NC, W Virginia and Georgia. The last one is under 2 seperate Elder Masters, Master Grooms and Master Mullins. The ones in the Georgia Tenn area wear one type of uniform, The West wears another and The last one wears the Old style Gi that GM The wears. Uniforms to me is just another wardrobe option no big deal.
Here is the problem, because of the "personal" differences of these schools and primarily the Masters of the schools, If I were to visic California or move there I would not be allowed to open a school due to haveing ties with say the Georgia schools. And if I were allowed to, I would have to give a % of my gross to the Master from that area and possibly the Master that I am associated with. Also the Master from where I am teaching at wants to have control of my school curriculum and progress.
Here is my point
I live in a state that is under one master I train and have trained with another master, Yet I am not "allowed" to train with any students or schools of the master whose area I have moved to. How screwed up is that? This is because These 2 area Masters do not like each other, It seems to me that is between them and all this is doing is hurting the system as a whole. It is these Masters that are causing long time students to leave due to the rift that has been established. I am not making light of the rift or its cause but enoug is enough, This has become a political mess and just gives outsiders a skewed pic of SD as being disorganized and a sham, Many who I have spoken with in and out of any of the organizations are tired of the BS. I for one am too. So I propose we come togethor and resolve this problem so if I go to Idaho I can train there or I go to Tennessee I can train there , It should be abou the Art, The student and the Masters last as w/o students the Masters wouldnt have anyone to "boss" or teach.

Death to the politics, I want the right to train with a Shaolin Tao , or Shaolin Do or Shaolin tennessee, Georgia etc school , without any reprocussion from any of the Masters of any area. I should be able to Pay the tuition and train but maintain ties with my original school. I feel a grass root program can pull SD togethor and stop all this back biting and personal conflict being pressured on the "regular" student etc. OPINIONS, METHODS ???? KC
