Nathaniel all dressed up and ready for U.S. Open Night of Champions!

I am setting up right now for tonight’s LIVE Stream Broadcast of the 2009 U.S. Open Night of Champions!  This is so exciting and you are going to LOVE this event.  The Best of the best of the best in the world on tonight’s stage.  Go to www.kickgen.com and click on the Kickgen LIVE tab up top and watch the event streamed LIVE and join in our online chat, watch our interview and hang out with me online during the Super Bowl of Martial Arts…

Earlier today after I finished my event, the main judge walked up to me and said, “You took this division…except for one small foot slip during your form.”    To say the least I was just crazy bummed, but I felt really good about my performance and I know I showed up well.  The competition was soooo razor thin close that a single heel slip (that I didn’t even know about until I later watched the vid) separated me from winning the entire division.

It was a great day and I was honored by my competition, ranked among the tops, and look forward to learning more and moving up and continuing my competition training.

As a matter of fact, Michael and I have mapped out my tournament schedule for the next several months and I am excited to be BACK in tournament competition after being away for so many years.  The U.S. Open has been fabulous!

Fireworks from last night...Happy 4th everyone!

I will post more details and some cools pics over the next couple of days and have a special announcement coming for some new developments that  are sure to be life-changing for many people over the next year.  It is good to be about making a difference in people’s lives!
