I wish to thank the Creator for which none of this would be possible.
I wish to thank my mother for she was the vehicle for that possibility. I wish to thank my Sifu Rick Faye for I could only hope to repay his generosity and kindness. I wish to thank Sifu Greg Nelson for his courage, strength, and inspiration he has given. I wish to thank Ajarn Chai Sirisute for his guidance and attention. I wish to thank Guro Dan Inosanto for his selfless sharing of his priceless experiences in the art. I wish to thank Simo Paula Inosanto for her un-wavering devotion and attention to the art. I wish to thank Sifu Erik Paulson for his kind words and encouragement. I wish to thank Mestre Yoji Senna for his generousity and spirit. I wish to thank all of my friends and training partners of the past, present, and future for their help, support, and insight with, through and of the art. I also wish to thank all of the warriors who have paved the way ahead and who have shared the light before us to follow. -Forever your subject, son, student, and friend, Rudy Rogers |
