MY SEARCH IS FINALLY OVER

My search is finally over! Thank you Sifu for the inner peace I've recieved from your intensive Shaolin Kungfu Course.
I have been a practitioner of martial arts ever since I was twelve, and started training from your excellent books in December of 1996, when I recieved your "The Compete Book of Tai Chi Chuan" as a gift. Soon I was using the techniques contained in your books in the classroom and even my local teacher asked me who I was now training with!
I now have almost all your books, with your Zen book just reciently ordered. My aims and objectives I set for taking your course were
-
To thank you personally for helping me overcome the little injuries I've
recieved over the years from training in other martial arts. Even before
meeting you, I was able to heal myself with the techniques contained in your
books.
-
To thank you for the time saved from having the correct training methods
and access to the knowledge of the ancient masters.
-
To make sure my interpreitation of your training methods was correct and
to rectify any mistakes.
- To experence the romance of the classical kungfu knight, traveling to Shangrila to be accepted by Sifu.
I achieved all these objectives and much more than words can describe. I feel the cosmic joy of inner peace. Joy in the knowlege that my search is over. Now I must practice!
Your humble student,
