| This is a special message for women. In the years following my introduction to the martial arts in the mid-1980's, I have had a few good instructors and some wonderful experiences; however, I have also experienced the bad and the ugly side of the martial arts. Because the martial arts are often viewed as a contact sport and/or a combat art and because it is a male-dominated activity, an environment is created that often makes women feel either unwelcome, uneasy or at least, unequal. What this means for women is that often training itself becomes uncomfortable and at times, dangerous. Women sometimes find themselves victimized by the very individuals who they turn to for help. In the past, when women mostly remained at home and relied on the men in their lives for protection, making such training a "men's only" club was fine; however, time changes circumstances. In today's modern world, women find themselves responsible for the protection of themselves and their children. Women have VALUE and an important place in this Art. Properly Trained, a woman like the FLAME is Beautiful to behold; but Deadly to the Touch. I choose Mr. Parker's American Kenpo because properly taught and properly learned, it is an ideal art for females. Whatever Art you seek, whatever the purpose, my message is simple: BE CAUTIOUS and CHOOSE WISELY. The choices you make today, will determine your tomorrow.
