BEMAA Art Camp Week 10 Part 2: Pinata Project conclusion

Although our Pinata project did turn out as plan, it was a great group effort and the process is what counted the most. As with any art, all ideas do not work the first time, but it lets you know what works for your next attempt.  Wifey and I did have a back up plan, so everyone did get a bag of treats even Master Rick!

Everyone working hard together to get this project wrapped up.  There will be a big treat tomorrow when all of this mayhem is done! Art is full of mayhem until you get to finished piece.

BEMAA Art Camp Week 7: Pinata Projects

Up until now we have been doing art projects that only takes one session. I wanted to show the campers that some art is multi sept, but there is still a great reward at the end even if there is a lot of work.

BEMAA Art Camp Week 5: Your inner voice is there to help with more than peer pressure.

No matter what age one is someone will try to tell you what path to take and it might not always be the right one. This always happened in my life, because people think they are trying to make my life easy, but how do they know what I want in life.

My life has never been, or will be easy because I fellow my inner voice and 99% of the time it is right. Posted by King Gimp - Dan Keplinger on Tuesday, July 21, 2015

Criptaedo Self-defense and Fitness for the disabled

I thought this would be good to share since I am doing the Art Camp at BEMAA. They also have one, or students that have a disability. Maybe they are willing to do this, because the Martial Arts are more about evoking the best out of each individual that can contribute to the group.

Visit to Baltimore Elite Martial Arts Academy

I would like to thank Master Rick Hammond for inviting me to Baltimore Elite Martial Arts Academy in order to share my film and life with his campers and staff. The ages ranged from 3 1/5 to 7, so Brianna and I were asked some good questions. I had to laugh when we stopped the film two times, so they can do jumping jacks and push-ups when the younger ones got antsy.  It is good to see a place that teaches respect, but also knows what is reasonable from the age groups.

I often get asked, if there was a magic pill or magic wand would I use it to undo my disability?  I always say no: because my disability is just part of my personality, it makes me who I am. One camper said we should just make a magic wand to have.

When work was done Daniel son and his Maters got to play, White Belt, check!  By the way Brianna was across the room for more then one reason.
