I DON’T LIKE BULLIES.
There, I said it.
After nearly 50 years in the Martial Arts, and seeing hundreds, if not thousands of kids (and Adults) seeking help for Bullying, I just don’t like them. I want them to stop tormenting, picking on, laughing at, scaring, looming, pushing and punching innocent, good people.
These kinds of despicable actions rob kids of a big part of their childhood; and can carry into their adult life in reduced productivity, low self image, and damaged relationships.
“I” was one of these bullied kids. From 3rd Grade all the way into my 2nd year in High School, I was the object of these narcissistic behaviors.
Then, I was introduced to the Martial Arts. Over the summer of 1975, my confidence experienced a meteoric rise. My body got strong and flexible, I grew 4 inches and shed 30 pounds. Needless to say, I felt really REALLY good! Strong; EMPOWERED!
When I walked up to the High School my first day back, virtually no one recognized me.
The 1st thing I did; my 1st mission, was to face these people who made my life miserable with their bullying and insults.
I locked eyes with them, one by one, and told them that I was done with it. And, did we now have an “understanding”? Most of these cowards didn’t have the courage to even look me in the eye, as they shook their heads, mumbled “yeah” and shuffled away.
And, just like that, that was the end of it.
My Instructor, and I, was proud of the fact that not a single punch was thrown, push was made, or School Administration was involved.
Now, it’s time for YOUR KIDS, or the friends of your children to gain their FREEDOM from their FEAR.
