Kyoshi Mel,

It was great to see you and your students again. My biceps were bleeding with
pain the next day and my calves still remember the skipping - thanks for a
fantastic workout!!! You have developed a wonderful martial arts atmosphere
and it is always eye-opening to be a student in your class.

We have a tournament coming up this weekend and I am taking some of my
students - I expect that the students can use the tournament as a learning
experience and am not at all concerned about medals - I want to see how they
perform when put into a crisis situation.

Thank you for inviting Grace to join us - I think she will enjoy it. I hope
to be back in March - until then take care and keep in touch,

Osu,

Michael.
