Shep doesn't need me vouch for any instructor that he associates with, and I'm certainly not shilling for him. That said, I would consider it a privilege to train with Rodney Lewis, he is among the best of the best.

Thanks!  Rod is an outstanding guy and a stellar Instructor.  Very humble (like me!), explains stuff so even a shaved ape like me can understand it, and has beaucoups real-world, hands-on experience with everything he teaches.

Does the $200 couple deal apply to live in couples or is it strictly married couples?  Any open slots?
