FOUNDING FATHERS' MESSAGE OF THE
PIONEERS AND LEGENDS MARTIAL ARTS SOCIETY HALL OF FAME

This message is for everyone who wants to better their lives in the martial arts.

We, the founding fathers of the PLIMSHOF, would like to thank everyone who has written us and shown support for our joint adventure.

There are many Great Martial Artists in the world today that deserve recognition.
We know that many of them have been inducted into halls of fame, and for that we say congratulations!

As we get older, most of us also get wiser. That is the way of Life in the martial arts.
When a great martial artist is inducted into a hall of fame, it should be their ultimate reward.

We have seen 20 year olds get inducted into some halls of fame, and we have seen some who claim 10th dan at the age of 23 or 25. What then is left for this individual to accomplish in the arts? Why should they care if they have reached the hall of fame at such an early age -- or can call themselves Grandmaster?

Will being inducted into a hall of fame be your goal if you know that after 5 or 10 years anyone can get there? We don't think so!


Sincerely

Founding Fathers
