Ran across this. What a cool program! We have had several threads lately about martial arts and its role in helping with depression. Well, here is an article about using martial arts to make kids feel empowered to fight cancer. It helps them deal with the stress, fear and pain of their disease and the treatments they have to go through. I am sharing this because this is just a really cool testament to what martial arts can do for people. And kudos to this Rabbi for starting this. http://www.today.com/health/rabbi-uses-martial-arts-teach-kids-inner-power-fight-against-t92966
