Learn new weapons, forms and techniques in free exchange

     All white lotus black belt members agree to the free exchange of knowledge.  High ranks mutually agree to trade forms , weapons, and other martial art techniques among each other.   A black belt from one system may pick up the ideals and skills of other arts without the burden of investing time and money of joining those arts.  For example a black belt member might pick up some two stick defense from Escrima in exchange for some specialty kicks from Tae Kwon Do,  or one teacher may trade some Karate form for a weapon from Kung Fu, or an exchange of  ground fighting techniques from Jujitsu for some movements and teaching from Capoeira.   All of these forms, weapons and self-defense can further be incorporated as one’s additional learning in order to achieve higher rank within the association.

    Seminars are free to member teachers who bring at least one student and serve as another way to learn new material freely.  Furthermore all students of a seminar receive free access of a video display of the form or seminar teaching via the White Lotus Association web site.  This serves as a means to help remember the teaching in the future.
