Martial Arts, is a way of life…

Of the VALUES, you have and up hold!

It has never been a ‘Macho~Thing’ 

More like a STRENGTH from WITHIN, I am told!

It is a world of EXPLORATION, of the Mind…

That dresses the SKILLS, all in Time..

To further encounter the BODY”s Balance and Beat…

To the sound of Harmony, so complete!

It opens WINDOWS, with a view…

Of How life is lived, if you were to choose…

Then it opens the windows, of your mind…

To chase the DRAGONS, in corners that hide!

It allows you to explore THE WORLD, as you Wander to perceive…

Studying the ELEMENTS, never before seen..

Mastering with closed eyes, all to see…

Everything about you, a new world indeed!

Select your mentor.. by the look of their hands…

They will guide, you to understand…

Of How a true Martial Arts Teacher, should be..

Living with VALUES, deemed for ZUES to see! 

Costa Prasoulas I have come to understand…

Is the teacher, who you can trust as a man…

For he values, all in this world that he sees…

As he is connected with all elements, in Harmony!
