NEWS & UPCOMING EVENTS If you would like to have your LOTUS information (tests, recognition, tournament results, etc.) posted here, email us.
Year 2007 has been an exciting year for LOTUS. Just to name a few things that have excited me: getting to fellowship with many LOTUS brothers and sisters during the summer in Las Vegas, reading handwritten letters by LOTUS Founder Ajarn Precha Mahachanavong, helping to edit potential future bi-laws, writing and reading various martial arts articles uploaded on our website, and constantly trying to improve our LOTUS website. I have created a forum for us to express ideas and post questions. I am still learning the ins and outs and look forward to your participation. My goal with regards to our website is to continue to try to spread LOTUS to as many people as I can, as well as to update our black belt biographies page. With your help, we can do it. I wish you the best for 2008!
