I just want to give a quick shout out to my friend and our instructor/coach/sensei/bald dude at Combat Syndicate.
I was putting in my calendar our upcoming seminars and got side tracked figuring up how many we’ve done since we opened.
We’re getting close to 200!
Almost 200 Self Defense/Antibullying Seminars for several schools, tribal programs, real estate agents, nurses, churches, private groups, trainings for law enforcement, etc….
All for zero dollars
Hundreds of hours donated to our community.
Every time I call and ask him if he’s cool with doing another one, he never complains and always just says, “let me know when”.
Some of these are at 5am…. I definitely complain for both of us
I’m typically the face of all these things, but the praise needs to go to James, none of this exists without him!
I’ve watched a ton of people come and go over the years. Business open and close. But, I never once thought James would bail on his students or the community.
That kind of loyalty and genuinely giving a s**t for others outside of making a buck is hard to find these days.
We appreciate you, homie!
If you see him, give him a hug.
He likes hugs
