Bully - A Movie

I am very excited about the release of a new documentary, called BULLY.  It has been in the works for several years and it is scheduled to be released March 30th.  

The story tragically follows up a community where bullying appears to be rampant and one boy decided to take his own life because he had been bullied so much.

This has been happening throughout our country the past couple of years, as school districts are trying to take action to protect our children. The reality is, the schools can only do so much.  Parents, family members, friends -- ALL of us need to take responsibility and get involved and help those children who are victims.

Together we CAN defeat the bully.

Watch the trailer below:

During the past month, I have worked with one of my local elementary schools, where I taught 4th and 5th graders how to deal with bullies in a non violent way.

It's not that hard.....we just need to take the time to teach our children to develop their own tools for dealing with a bully.

If you or someone you know, is a victim of bullying, please contact me personally and I will help.

Don't wait to call before it's too late!

Find No Enemy

I like all kinds of music, and you might even be surprised to hear that I even like Hip Hop. I must admit, I am selective with which artists I listen to, because often times the lyrics focus too much on sex, violence and drugs. But, there are some real GEMS out there. I recently came across this video from Karma Tube , of a song sung by Akala. Akala's lengthy hip-hop poem is somber and clear-eyed in its disappointment with race-relations, global politics, and contemporary culture. And yet it retains both hopefulness and an action-plan. "The only way you can change anything," he slams, "is to look in the mirror and find no enemy." Find No Enemy If you want to join a group of like minded individuals, who want to make a difference in their lives and the lives of others, please stop by our karate school and see what we are all about!

Eating Healthy Is Good Self Defense

I recently read an executive summary, from the Environmental Working Group, also known as EWG, which listed the top vegtables and fruits that were found to contain a lot of pesticides in them.   Modern farming relies on many pesticides in order to improve crop yields and protect the land from many harmful insects or diseases.  Unfortunately, the average consumer doesn't relize that many of the pesticides remain on the products, despite washing. While the tests typcially reveal trace amounts that are considered harmless, the concern is the long term impact of eating food with these chemical residues and how they can damage our bodies. EWG listed the top vegtables to avoid, or try to buy organic, and they also listed the products that typical have no or very little pesticide residue on them.  I have copied the graph and posted it below.   At Samurai Karate Studio , I include Diabetes awareness and healthy eating as part of our Black Belt training.  For some people...
