…..I find inspiration all over the place!  From watching young children practice martial science to adults.  From reading a book on the martial arts to watching a video of a practitioner doing their thing.  I also find inspiration from outside sources like some practitioners I know who have a band and are creating new music and bringing it to the world.  These varied sources of inspiration keep me going! Even when suffering from burn out which everyone does by the way I still find a way to train and continue on.  Last October was a very specific inspirational time in that we had “The Gathering” with lots of great instructors teaching.  Those teaching were myself, Brian “Buzz” Smith, Rich Parsons and of course the Grand Tuhon of Dekiti Tirsia Siradas Jersen “Nene” Tortal.  I am still inspired from that training and what everyone taught.  It was also a joy to see the Grand Tuhon who was seventy one years old at the time teach for two days and really work everyone out.  His stamina for martial training is intense!  I also get so much inspiration from other IRT practitioner’s when they are training.   Just the other day one of my regular private lesson students was training and watching and seeing him move and how far his skill sets have improved was definitely inspiring!  So when trying to keep motivated find things to inspire you and who knows where your training will go!

See You On The Mats!
