Hey family! How has your week been? Enter Shaolin had it’s 3rd birthday on May 1st. We’ve also been busy fixing things on the back end and working on raising the funds to put some finishing touched on equipment and the website. I am personally looking forward to my Sabbath day of rest tomorrow. Sunday I will be back at it, I’ve also been working extra hours a lot the past 3-4 weeks, the days are starting to mesh together a bit! LOL!
Back to our 3rd birthday, what an adventure it has been and if you are not sure how Enter Shaolin started watch our podcast Episode 1 to get the full scoop here! It’s been a wild adventure and a dream come true!
Here is a special thank you video from us to you:
Sifu Larry and I are going strong on being back in full swing of exercising and training, boy does it feel good too! We also have been bone conditioning 1x a week. And for those following our journey we are still intermittent fasting, yesterday marked week 3 down. We will be doing a podcast on our first month this upcoming week.

Loved this week’s podcast!! Bob, thank you for sharing your experiences and wisdom. You are truly inspirational in the way you are working through your many challenges. I tell my children and what few students I have that you have two ways of looking at events in your life. You can view them as challenges or you can see them as opportunities to prove how strong you really are. A body builder does not prove his/her strength by lifting a feather. They struggle by lifting more than they could previously. The same goes for everything else in life. You guys are the best and I’m SO grateful for chancing across your site while searching for new information to better my skills as a martial artist. I certainly got a LOT more than I assumed I would get. Thank you for doing what you do.
Brent thank you for the kind words friend! I have spent most of my adult life helping others in one way or another. Martial artists are a rare breed. We strive for perfection yet understand perfection doesn’t exist. So to everyone out there here are the 3 rules I live by hopefully you will find it even more inspirational
1) take the word “can’t” or phrase “can not” out of your vocabulary!!
2) respect is earned not a certainty!
3) love yourself as much as you love others! Then and only then can your dreams come true!
