An amazing day with three generations of Yuen Mo Pai Kung Fu and Tai Chi students coming together to spend time with our Grandmaster Henry Sue as he was interviewed for Channel 9’s My Way program.
Much fun was had by all with Tai Chi forms (empty hand and weapons), kids Kung Fu, Liond Dancing, adult Kung Fu, and concrete tile beaks to keep us busy.
The best part was the camaraderie and support of our martial arts family!!

It is always fun to be cross training with like minded martial artists.

A great week of gradings for our Teen and Adult Mantis students.
Congratulations everyone, your persistence and regularity has paid off yet again!
Learning to be comfortable being uncomfortable, learning to eat bitter, makes it easier to face the hurdles and hard times that come with repetitive and sometimes painful training!😅
