Congrats Ron, you really earned it! You are an amazing teacher, as-well as a true inspiration to many people. I’m so thankful to have met you. Right before I started training with you, I was at a confusing cross roads into where and what I was going to do next in life as-well as martial arts. I really can’t say what I’d be doing if I didn’t meet you. You sure are right about how everyone in our lives are in out lives for a reason. I can also say with confidence that all my friends in class are more than just friends but family. roll on!
