Dear Friend and Student,
I am writing to you to share a very important event in the history of “White Birch
Kung Fu & Tai Chi” of Fallston, MD. As of October 1, 2004, our name will
change to Heaven Mountain Gongfu.
With the exception of the name and logo (see below), the change will be invisible
and seemless. However, there will eventually be additions and enhancements to
the curriculum and programs offered by Heaven Mountain Gongfu. Some
changes will be imperceptable, while others will be more dramatic. All of them
have one thing in common: They will broaden your experience and training, and
will be implemented in order to better our existing program. Some of the
programs I am developing and may include as Heaven Mountain curricula
include firearms safety and familiarzation training, home defense training, a
women’s self-defense program, and a self-defense instructor certification
program.
Many of you are aware that I have been operating the school and teaching as a
franchisee of Sifu Robert LaPointe and the school he founded. I have recently
ended my student/instructor relationship with Sifu LaPointe and the White Birch
Schools as well. The reasons why are not important. I share this with you with
the understanding that as one of my students, I expect you to treat Sifu LaPointe
and all White Birch instructors and students with utmost respect , if and when you
meet. I expect right conduct whether or not the meeting is related to a martial
arts function. Knowing each of you as I do, I know I can trust you to represent
Heaven Mountain and me with honor and dignity.
I am VERY excited about this change. It is the next step in my personal growth
and development as a martial artist, a teacher, and as a school owner. I am
looking forward to your continued company on this next phase of the journey!
Sincerely,
Ramon J. Martinez
Sifu
