Greetings!
I hope this message finds you well.
As some of you know, it has been a very interesting past year for me, as my family and I prevailed over a major health crisis. The prayers from those in-the-know were essential and deeply appreciated.
I gained some very personal revelations through this experience, which I may write about in the future, God willing, but I can at least affirm the following practical truths.
1. That spiritual warfare continues on all planes of existence. Do nothing or something, but at least be aware that the stakes are very high.
2. That no matter how devastating the burden of fear, loss, pain, or shame is in our lives, we must find a way to wholly integrate with this burden to still be able to "chop wood and carry water" with kindness for ourselves and others in this world.
This may not be news to many seekers and protectors in Systema who regularly put in the hard work to reach deeper levels of understanding and skill. As protectors, who must seamlessly integrate with our shadows, we have the additional responsibility to prevent our destructive skills from causing unnecessary damage... this is inherent in our training.
So, the hard work continues... starting in August, we will introduce and reinforce the full spectrum of powerful yet subtle foundational principles of Systema in a new workshop series.

I look forward to working with you soon, and as always, your dedication and continued support of our training is greatly appreciated!
With Respect and Best Wishes,
