@@oldschoolkarate-5o “Thank you for calling me ‘shifu’ or ‘teacher’-I appreciate the respect! However, I prefer to be called ‘Instructor.’ My role is to guide my students towards better health, not to take on a title that belongs to God. As a Christian, I believe only Jesus Christ is the true teacher, and there’s only one Father in Heaven. So, I see myself more as a guide sharing knowledge, similar to how you’d refer to a gym instructor, not someone to be placed on a pedestal.”
"Ah, you caught me! 😄 The hidden power is actually in my Velcro, not black belts. Just don’t attack me when my Velcros are stuffed with my iPhone and wallet! 😉 Well done on exposing the secret!"
“Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 I’m thrilled to hear that you found the explanation of Tai Chi and Qigong valuable. If you have any questions or thoughts on the techniques, feel free to share them. Your feedback means a lot to me! 🙏🥋”😀
“Thanks for your comment! 😄 I’m glad you see the potential of the 24-style Tai Chi in combat. Before you run off, how about sticking around for a virtual coffee? ☕ There’s always more to explore and discuss! Thanks for engaging with the video!”
Your question is spot on! My martial arts have a strong Chinese influence, but they've evolved here in Japan. With my Roman Catholic faith and Spanish ancestry, it's a blend of different spiritual and cultural elements. Just like the Shaolin Temple uses physical strength to shape spiritual growth, I'm creating a similar path, but in a Roman Catholic context. It might sound like an unusual mix, but it feels like a natural harmony to me. Thank you for such a thoughtful question! 😊🙏

That hidden power comes from the velcros!

Is this a chinese Christian martial art?
