A Backyard with A Roof

The tent (20X20 ft.) is going up this weekend. Now our backyard has a roof for when it rains. The porch has gotten too small for our growing numbers. This new luxury comes at a price, though. Now, there is more room for footwork: steps, kicks, punches, and multiple opponent circle-fighting drills - and that means you'll sweat more.

Got a few pounds to lose? Might as well lose them here at the Backyard. At least here you are getting something in return (grin).

Changes

Looks like more and more new students are signing up lately, and that without any more promo activity on my part. Great. We're ready.

The new Student Grade (S.G.) teaching program (Levels 1 - 3) has just been distributed. It's pretty ambitious. Wing Tsun is supposed to be taught fast, so let's see how much everybody can digest without getting indigestion. Student Grade testings are free (no extra charge for testing and certificates, etc.) and will now be available every two months instead of every three.

We are also getting a 20X20 large party tent in the driveway soon because the covered porch is getting too small and we need a place to train when it rains. It's all "BYOB" (that's "bring your own brains"; please leave the booze at home until our next grill party!)

Sihing Jean has just been promoted to Assistant Instructor to help me teach the new students coming in and leading the basic training drills. He will get free private lessons in return. Congratulations, Jean!
