Just wanted to say hello to Stephen Hayes, from an old high school buddy. Steve, I live in Arizona (winters), and Montana, and would not know a thing about a ninja. But, still wanted to say hello!

Hi Tim, You can continue your training as a long-distance student, and An-shu offers many instructional videos to help you with this. Black Belt Home Study Course is an entire DVD set with Earth, Wind, Fire, and Wind elemental instruction in To-Shin Do. Optionally, you can also purchase these as individual DVD sets, such as Effortless Victory over Larger Attackers is one. To-Shin!

I too loved the Kung Fu Tv series. It inspired me to do my best to be involved in the Martial Arts. About 5 years ago I even acheived a Yellow/Black belt in the art of To Shin Do. Unfortunatley due to moving I was unable to continue my practice.

Now I once again have the resources and support to practice but it seems that the School in the Chicago Area has closed. So I will return to the Arts practicing Hapkido.

I have a question though, I loved To Shin Do, how could I suppliment my Hapkido with To Shin Do, or does anyone know how I may be able to resume practice in To Shin Do here in Chicago?

Respectfully

Yes, a series to remember I must add. I think I was fascinated by the ninja before I saw the show, but watching the ‘Kung-Fu’ series made me realize there was much more to the martial arts than punches, kicks, and takedowns, it was almost at this moment (watching Caine) that I realized the martial arts were a fascinating aspect of life and that there must be many secrets and truths to it. I loved his line “I am Caine, I will help you.” which to me embodies a true sage of wisdom.

Thank you for sharing with us your touching eulogy of Carradine/Caine. It echoed much of what many martial artists are feeling at this time.

The ‘Kung Fu’ series was my first ever exposure to martial arts and it was certainly an inspiring one. I still laugh (in a good way) when I think of how we used to play ‘snatch this pebble from my hand…’ with each other as kids. ; )

Cheers to Mr. Carradine, may he rest in peace.
