I just wanted to share with my friends at MartialTalk that 2008 marks 15 years that my school, Cromwell Martial Arts, has been in operation.

I first started Martial Arts because I was looking for something new after playing semi-pro baseball, Martial Arts was always an interest after watching the series Kung Fu with my dad when I was a kid, and I wanted to learn how to spar to surprise a Blackbelt friend of mine at the time who I was training with for fun.
What I never expected was to have Martial Arts become such a huge part of my life.
The journey so far has been an amazing one. While learning Martial Arts has been a passion, even greater has been the opportunity to meet so many incredible teachers, mentors, students, and friends.
Along with sharing this milestone, I also wanted to thank everyone that has been a part of this journey. There have been so many people that have shared and contributed and made my dream a reality.

Thanks to all for a great 15 years at Cromwell Martial Arts!

Here is just a very small look at my school:

Great clip and congradulations! Good schools come from good people, and you fit in that nicely.
You school has been very supportive of mine, despite the distance between the two and I wish you every bit of luck in 2008.
