I Ho Chuan

There may be almost five months left in the Year of the Sheep but it is time to start your planning if you are considering committing a year to the upcoming I Ho Chuan Year of the Monkey Team.

So what exactly is the I Ho Chuan? Silent River Kung Fu's I Ho Chuan is a year long mentorship/mastery program that is based upon my friend Tom Callos' Ultimate Black Belt Test. The program is premised upon the principle of incremental progression, and the logical certainty that many small accomplishments can add up to something big, something life-changing, something truly great.

The I Ho Chuan will challenge you to do better, be kinder, dig deeper, think wider, eat wisely, live simply, consume less, engage more, and get in the best shape of your life. The I Ho Chuan is for anyone who wants to facilitate positive change in their life.

The I Ho Chuan only has one rule - NO QUITTING. You are allowed to fail but you are not allowed to quit. When you think about it, failure is only absolute if a person stops trying. The difference between a master and a student is the master has failed more times than the student has even tried.

“A black belt should have an attitude equal in its brilliance to his or her physical skills.” - Tom Callos (b. 1959)
