Years ago, I asked our beloved KungFu WuSu teacher, Kenny Lopez to teach
me "what he never had taught another person." At first, he was not very happy, and as he told me later ;" The student should not tell the teacher what to teach".
But his teaching gave me the immeasurable life gift, and for this I am forever grateful.
Here is the testimonial I wrote about Kenny's work.
"For many years I was searching for a teacher, and for the wisdom that will allow my body-mind to blossom, heal, and to avoid the mid-life crisis.
Dancing for most of my life, I need something that will move me, put me in motion, and that will give me as much joy as the dance had offered.
I was ready - and then the teacher arrived. Kenny Lopez, a beloved instructor of Martial Arts, a brilliant warrior, and a beautiful mover, and dancer. In his deep wisdom he understood what I needed. He did not impose a linear martial Arts movement combat or system. He talked to the Ancestors, and to Master Alan Lee, and t o his own heart. Then, when everything was in agreement, he offered me a precious and life-changing gift. The system, which moves so beautifully, the system so ancient and pure....we still are looking for its first, original name.
I felt as a new, and old blueprint of strength and grace was given me as a heavenly gift.
At first - few months of drills and sweats, to learn the new vocabulary, and to sweat out all old impurities.
Then, magical walking in the circle in 8 even steps, as the universes danced around us.....we uncovered unknown treasures of strength and freedom, and flow.
The teachings have been magical, simple, ornate, and healing.
Every time, despite what was happening in his life, Kenny stood in full grace; patient, warm, never judgmental, always providing with courage and love.
For such gifts one can ever repay. There is no price for wisdom that changes our lives.
I am absolutely grateful for every moment, movement, and for wisdom, and knowledge Kenny gave me so generously.
Perhaps some people change teachers like seasons.
I like to keep mine as the aeternal SPRING. There is no separation. Just GRATITUDE and a commitment to put this practice in life, bringing the Earth towards the balance. Just as Kenny would do, as he demonstrates a "killing" move ... that flows and becomes a most beautiful dance of grace and life."
I apply these internal techniques with clients and people who may be helped by moving the energy in this particular way.
