Hello everyone,
Fall has arrived and Halloween is nearby. I remember fondly one year when attending one of Master Yang’s classes, a friend and I dressed up in Halloween costumes. Pretty fun/interesting classes!
With ‘back to school’ for our kids, hopefully schedules will normalize soon and we can get back into our daily routine.
I have fantastic news for you (see below “Save the Date”) about a 2027 Hand Form seminar.
Fire Horse Year has been going strong for ten months now. Hope it’s been going well for you.

After completing the Traditional Hand Form, students progress by learning the weapons form (sword and saber). The weapon forms still follow the 10 Essentials while maintaining the large, graceful and even pace. The sword techniques are clear, light, flexible, lively and flowing.
