In this episode, Professor Duane Brumitt interviews Professor Chris Beane about his 26-year journey from a bullied 11-year-old who struggled with martial arts to becoming the head instructor at Tri-Star Academy in Bradley, IL. Discover how grit, discipline, and refusing to quit transformed a student who wasn’t naturally gifted into a master instructor-and why comparing your child to others misses the point entirely.
