I'M HAPPY TO WELCOME BACK BRIAN
DOUGLAS A FOURTH-DEGREE BLACK
BELT.

LESSONS.

ARTS UNIVERSITY, BUT PEOPLE FROM
ALL AGES CAN BENEFIT FROM A
LESSON AT MARITAL ARTS
UNIVERSITY, RIGHT?

I BELIEVE MARITAL ARTS ARE
FANTASTIC FOR PEOPLE OF ALL
AGES.
IT'S GREAT FOR YOUNGSTERS FOR
DEVELOPING ANTI-BULLYING SKILLS,
ANTIDRUG MESSAGE, GREAT ACADEMIC
ENCOURAGEMENT, AND IT'S
WONDERFUL TO HELP THEM IN THEIR
FAMILY LIFE TOO.
AND IT'S GREAT FOR YOUNG ADULTS
AND ADOLESCENCE BECAUSE THEY
START GETTING SERIOUS AND
FOCUSED ABOUT THEIR CAREERS AND
EDUCATION.
THE OLDER FOLKS, 40, 50, 60, I'M
TRAINING WITH PEOPLE, 70, 80, 90
YEARS OLD.
IF YOU DO AUTHENTIC TECHNIQUE
IT'S A LOT OF FUN.
>> YEAH, I LOVE THAT YOU SAID
BULLYING TOO.
THAT'S CERTAINLY IMPORTANT TO
TALK TO KIDS AT A YOUNG AGE ANT
IT.
I WON'T GO INTO MY STORY TOO
MUCH, BUT MY BROTHER ACTUALLY
HAD A BULLY IN SCHOOL GROWING
UP.
HE WOULD HAVE BENEFITED FROM A
LESSON, BUT LONG STORY SHORT, HE
ENDED UP PUNCHING THE KID IN THE
FACE AFTER MONTHS OF -- LONG
STORY.
PROBABLY NOT THE WAY TO HANDLE
IT.
YOU WANT TO GET IN WITH
SOMETHING LIKE MARITAL ARTS
UNIVERSITY AND LEARN HOW TO
HANDLE THOSE STORIES.

YOU'RE PUT IN A SITUATION WHERE
SOMETHING LIKE THIS CAN HAPPEN.
IT'S GOOD TO KNOW THIS AND JUST
