It’s great to be back teaching classes again. So for this year, the energy at Northstar has been electric. We had our first grading for the year at Balmain and the first main grading for 2010 will be at North Sydney on Sunday 28th March. This will be a grading not to be missed as several students will attempt to grade to black.
The Essential Shinbudo Seminar was fantastic, we will have another one in around 6weeks. Friday Fight Night is on again on 5th March 6.30pm at Balmain, spaces still available. My “Understanding Bullying “ e-book has been downloaded over 100 times, I sincerely hope that you were able to take something valuable from it. If you have not received your copy yet please go to http://modernmartialartist.com.au/powerful-children/. Part 2 of my Bullying e-book series will soon be available.
Work consistently on improving your commitment to all that you do. Don’t give up at the first sign of difficultly, that’s were real growth occurs. As Tony Robbins says ; “struggle is built into the nature of life, the hero is the man who lets no obstacle prevent him from pursuing the values he has chosen. “
In class, have fun, make new friends and develop some skills to help you cope a little better with all that may be going on for you.

LIVING TO 100
There are several hubs around the world where people live the longest. This is a great video as it shares the common points among them.

Just because you react a particular way and you think that the reaction is “just the way you are”. Does not mean you have to live your life that way any more. Start by making a relationship with the present moment. Then see what happens from there.

SPARRING
The average normal person would never dream that they are capable of standing in front of another human, engaging in unarmed combat, surviving and at the same time having incredible fun. Well this is what we aim for at the Friday Sparring Workshops.
If you fear it, you MUST do it.
Friday 5th March, Balmain 6.30pm

WHAT LANCE ARMSTRONG CAN TEACH US ABOUT MOTIVATION

******************
AVOIDING NEGATIVE PEOPLE
To make the decision to let go of negative people in your life also affects all humankind, usually in unseen and uncelebrated ways. Jesus Christ said to avoid the
wolves, not out of "hate" or "spite" but out of respect for your own life, and therefore out of respect for Life itself. As you let go of spending time with negative
people, you, within yourself, will shine more light, so to speak. As the Light of your own Consciousness increases, it leaves an invisible 'track' in the field, not
unlike an imprint or a path. This then makes it easier for mankind to follow suit.
