Did anyone read the blitz article. I believe its a two parter so i cant wait for that one.
The one thing that stuck in my head was $35,000,000 in turnover a year.
Maybe if i was nice to sionnagh, boz, mike, matt and anyone else with a BB we could team up and get some of that action. It wouldnt be like the old days it would be more of a corporate takeover (do they have a board)
But of course only while doing it for love and the art. Because we are above such worldly posesions. But $35 Million holy s..t.
cheers

I can understand teaching for the love of the art as I used to do it myself. But its wrong when there are people profiting from you volunteering your time. You could probably compare it to brand name clothing companies using slave labour in Asian countries, and then he rubs it in everyones faces by doing interviews like that.
In our organisation we have a rule that there must be exchange in abundance for all those involved eg. instructors, students, suppliers etc. everyone wins.

I only saw the blurb in the junkmail I get from Blitz. I did get a laugh from the use of "master" in connection with Martial Arts though.
