Passing It On

 

One of the most rewarding parts of being a martial artist for so many years is getting to pass what I've learned on to the next generation. I've had some incredible instructors and mentors throughout my life, and so much of what they taught me is now being passed along to my students and instructors. Martial arts knowledge isn't something we're supposed to keep for ourselves. We're just taking care of it until it's our turn to pass it on.
