Well I feel really strange tooting my own horn here but Liz and Phil Weaver voted Valley Springs Citizens of the Year. Read about it on the Pine Tree Quite a surprise and quite an honor. Liz and I felt very special being among the other nominees as we have a great deal of respect for each of them.

After Da' Shifu Al Moore's passing it became incredibly difficult to find a Shou' Shu' school. As the pressures within the system to "modernize" became stronger a large number of the quality instructors went on their way. No one except maybe a few teachers very loyal to their art remained. As far as we know, we were the only school to continue to teach Da' Shifu's Shou' Shu' in a commercial school. With the loss of so many quality instructors, Shou' shu' itself was at risk. The art could have easily been lost.
