		<description><![CDATA[A reverse Q&#038;A where Shifu Ahles gives students the chance to speak out on what they think are the qualities of a great student of the martial arts. This is followed by students explaining their reasons for taking classes and how their reasons evolved or changed over time. Non martial arts students just may be surprised at the diverse reasons for joining and what these students reveal about what they really get from the practice. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This week's talk centers around the retelling of Sun's story of real life self defense and the importance of making our practice real. Sifu Brown's student was forced to put his practice into action applying his physical and mental training to save his own life against a knife attack in Detroit. Shifu Ahles goes through some of the ABC's of self defense and reminds us of the consequences of not knowing what to do if faced with real danger. A motivating and important talk for everyone to hear. ]]></description>
