One my great- Uncle Art (1897-1993) and You....Your moral teachings from those years of training with You Sunk in, and my children live that way as I do...Kyokushin....The path of Ultimate Truth....Thank You Sensei Bill....
Matt is a fine man, who came from a difficult situation. As for me, my Sensei was Don Buck, and I just tried to run my small school the way he did, and teach my students what he taught me. In this case i guess it took.
Thank you for your kind words
Hi Bill, I just read the comment below left by Matt Kanis It tells me a great deal about your character. If there is anything important in this life it is having one remeber you for the reasons he states. Honored to be a friend of yours on here.
osu sensei, matt kanis here. it has been a long time. i was looking through my safe the other day and came across several letters you sent to me while i was in vermont with my crazy parents. it reminded of how you taught me more about honor, discipline, and focus than anyone who i have ever had the pleasure of knowing. i would probably be dead or in prison if it was not for your help. osu
