If you have interest in Thai Massage for physical therapy, I am licensed in Los Angeles and currently scheduling clients. You can consult the link below for reviews of my work over the last two years in San Francisco:

Kung Fu Training In Los Angeles
If you are interested in beginning your training now and you live somewhere other than the Westside, you should contact the recommended Sifus below. I know each Sifu personally and can attest to their expert instruction, command of the material, and commitment to their students.Since Los Angeles is a huge city and no one Kung Fu school can possibly serve the entire community, we therefore make the following recommendations for these areas:

Don't put off your health and
personal development forever.
"The Buddhist notion of diligence is to delight in positive deeds. Its opposite, called le lo in Tibetan, has three aspects. Le lo is usually translated as "laziness," though only its first aspect refers to laziness as we usually understand it. The first aspect is not doing something because of indolence, even though we know that it is good and ought to be done. The second aspect is faintheartedness. This comes about when we underestimate our qualities and abilities, thinking, "I'm so incompetent and weak. It would be good to do that, but I could never accomplish it." Not having the confidence of thinking, "I can do it," we end up doing nothing. The third aspect refers to being very busy and seeming diligent, but wasting time and energy on meaningless activities that will not accomplish anything in the long run. When we do many things for no real purpose, we fail to focus on what is truly worthwhile and our path has no clear direction. When we refrain from these three aspects of laziness, we are diligent."

Precept Dedication
Chant "Om Mani Peme Hung" by Shantideva,
revised by His Holiness,
the Fourteenth Dalai Lama May all beings everywhere,
Plagued by sufferings of
body and mind,
Obtain an ocean of
happiness and joy
By virtue of my merits. May no living creature suffer,
Commit evil or ever fall ill.
May no one be afraid
or belittled,
With a mind weighed
down by depression. May the blind see forms,
And the deaf hear sounds.
May those whose bodies
are worn with toil
Be restored on finding repose. May the naked find clothing,
The hungry find food.
May the thirsty find water
And delicious drinks. May the poor find wealth,
Those weak with sorrow find joy.
May the forlorn find hope,
Constant happiness and prosperity. May there be timely rains
And bountiful harvests.
May all medicines be effective
And wholesome prayers bear fruit. May all who are sick and ill
Quickly be freed
from their ailments.
Whatever diseases there
are in the world,
May they never occur again. May the frightened cease
to be afraid
And those bound be freed.
May the powerless find power
And may people think of
benefiting each other.
Chant "Om Mani Peme Hung"
