Queens called Club Las Palmas,
where a man can take the hand of a
woman, embrace his culture and
whirl away the cold.
In Las Palmas, las muchachas
que bailan run the joint and serve up
los hombres a little home-style dig­
nity. Check your worries at the door
and feel your body come to life

Coach Michael Taylor, author, motiva­
tional speaker, radio and television host
and life coach, was on a path to self-
destruction after being divorced, in debt,
homeless, bankrupt and experiencing
I depression.
But, thanks to the strategies and tips
contained in his new book Black Men
Rock, he is now enjoying a fulfilling life, a
rewarding 10-year marriage, excellent
health, a promising career and prosperity.
Taylor, better known as Coach Michael,
said he wrote the book at the urging of the
many men he’s guided to go from “victims
to victors.”
“Contrary to the negative media ste­
reotypes,” observes Taylor, “black men
are capable of being loving husbands and
caring fathers. They are intelligent,
thoughtful and insightful who, like all
men, simply want to love and be loved and
feel that their lives matter.
Black Men R o c k - 10 Keys to Empower
Black Men to Live Extraordinary Lives,” is
available online at blackmenrock.net, a
resource that also contains inspiring mes­
sages and snippets from the book.
