Pancake Breakfast Demonstration

Thanks to all who came out and participated in our local community Pancake Breakfast demonstrations yesterday! Performing before a captive crowd in the great outdoors always poses as an opportunity to step up one’s game, and can be quite a challenge for some. Happily, the more you do it, the easier it gets. For the shier sect, once you have a few events stowed under your belt you may one day find yourself speaking before a large crowd, and it suddenly registers that you feel less anxious than anticipated. You may even find a small part of your brain is somehow able to break away from the usual panic to engage in internal dialog with, “This is not so scary!”

The public demonstration experience can also help alleviate some of the stress associated with the scrutiny of a formal Kung Fu test, and vice-versa… It really is well worth getting up there and giving it your all while you are still young and skipping Public Speaking 101 in college. And for those of us who avoided PS101, here’s to a golden opportunity to help dry those sweaty palms!

It takes nerve just to show up.
BRAVO!
