White Crane Martial Arts

It can be very rewarding being a Tai Chi instructor. Yesterday two of my students, Michael & Laura presented me with this beautiful hand painted Chinese Fan. (Thanks!) Then later today we are off to East Preston where our Chinese Lion is taking part in their annual parade!
I do love my job...!😁

Saw this picture online & had to share it here.... Training never stops!
Age is no barrier!

As you all know, this years summer course is the 3 sectional staff.
But I'm already thinking about next year!
I'm going to be teaching the King of all weapons- the monster of a halberd wielded by none other than the god of war himself- The Kwandao, as used by General Kwan (Guan Gong.)
Metal Kwandao's are not only expensive, but also not great for outside use, as you could get yourself into trouble with the police.
Wooden weapons are the perfect alternative, but again, they can be difficult to source.
So I am going to offer a special deal.
The course will be £100 for the training, but if you want a Kwandao, I will make you a bespoke wooden Kwandao for an extra £80.
(So it will be £180 for the course & the weapon.)
The Kwandao will be made to your specifications. Size, weight, shape & decoration will all be controlled by you.
This will be a one-off bespoke item, tailored to your specific requirements.
These Kwandao's take time to make, so if you are interested, I recommend you get in touch with me sooner, rather than later, so I have time to get it made for you.
I have attached some photos of three Kwandao's I have already made.
If interested, speak to me in class, or call me on 07885 963979.
