Hi,

It's been so long since I've posted, I just wanted to post some
random news about upcoming events. Fighthouse will host Vladimir
Vasiliev in late May, in what has become an annual summertime event.
Systema Delaware will host a seminar with Vlad on March 1, and
several students from Fighthouse are expected to attend. It's a few
hours from NYC and not too bad of a day trip (at least, for someone
who can't share in any of the driving - I don't know how to drive!).
On March 5, I will teach a self-defense workshop at my place of
employment, Pace University. It is for Pace students and not open to
the public, but I intend to ask some of my Fighthouse classmates to
participate if they have the time, as it helps to have experienced
students on hand to help the beginners.

For the record, I am not a Systema instructor but I do feel that
I've been training long enough to teach beginners some basics for an
hour-and-a-half. Vlad has given me permission to run a study group
on campus but the university will not permit it due to liability. I
am hoping that this workshop will change their minds or at least,
maybe I'd have the opportunity to do this again.

So that's what's upcoming in our neck of the woods. Feel free to
share what your group's been up to lately.
