Lamond Sensei was one of the most influential teachers, mentors, and friends in my life. I had the distinct honor of knowing him from 2011-2020 and the esteemed honor of being his 40th and final black belt. The reach of his lessons touched literally hundreds of thousands of lives through his teaching to hundreds of civilians, thousands of police, and by extension his influence on the US Marine Martial Arts program and the hundreds of thousands to whom it has been taught. Dave has cultivated two families and I am proud to be a part of his dojo family. There are many people alive today because of Lamond Sensei.
