San Francisco Seminar Was GREAT!
A big 'THANKS' to all the great folks who made my recent visit to SF a truly rewarding experience. The Ramos brothers (Rick and Dan) and their students were excellent hosts. A special nod/bow goes out to Grandmaster Michael Giron of the Bahala Na System. Let's do it again soon gentlemen!
Mabuhay!

Samdhana
"We may practice for one hour, two hours, or three hours
and during this time we are always aiming, aiming, aiming.
We are only aiming.
But we have to aim once and for all. Aim and attain it.
That is what is called Samdhana"
