Expertise

Being an expert means to be a master all, I am meerly master of myself. Everyone can grow from where they are there are no limits there is no peak. One who claims to know everything has only touched a splinter. You can never max out on experience, or knowledge.

Experience

Kung Fu,Defensive tactics for police, Tea kwando, Jujitsu, Karate, Tai Chi, Raised in martial arts but never became serious until I had turned 21 yrs old. It is never to late to join a martial art I have seen people past 50 join and it works miricles on arthritis and other elments.
