I was searching through some old martial art fines and found this photo of the first group of students I thought the Southern Dragon Kung Fu System. I believe it was at IS 293, Nathan Hale Junior High in Brooklyn. These young men and women have all grown and have families of their own and a few of them like Jomar Sharpe and Adrian Crispoino still take time out of their busy lives to keep in touch and share some of their life experiences. Teaching martial arts has always been a passion and I appreciate the opportunity to pass on the knowledge and wisdom handed down through the generations. I always hope that my students past and present grow to be positive open-minded individuals who find ways to appreciate life. The good, the bad, and the indifferent. Thanks to all of you for teaching me as much as I tried to teach you.
