Great Grandmaster Shum asked me to open upaschool in Des Moines, Iowa. This year is my 35th year of teaching. During this time five students have reached the white sash level. (Sifu) Sifu Aaron Giddings now has the school in Des Moines and has brought up a student that started with me and is now come to the level of testing for his white sash. He will be my first Grand Student at Sifu level. I have two other students that are on the path to this very same goal.

The video below is part of a series that I will post of the 35 years of teaching. I hope the many students will see and remember the training and wonderful times we shared as there are photos of our performances and training through out the entire videos. Part one has the beginning and the parts of the Yue Fei play (Ngok Fei), I created when we were invited by the Peoples Republic of China to practice at the Shaolin Temple and other sites. Part of the sound may resilient as there might be copywite music.

I will be performing and have a table at the Rexburg High School for this event. At 76 my performance level won't be as high as it used to be. But the purpose is to expose people who never saw Eagle Claw and Wu Tai Chi to have an understanding of it. I will have my second edition book: Tai Chi Kung Fu Comparison available there.I will be selling it at a $5.00 discount ($15.00) which is a savings in shipping an over expenses. I'm opening this offer to others until my supply has gone, but shipping costs will be added if there is a cost.
The event is free.

The event is at UI-USU multipurpose room. Located at 1784 Science Dr. It is a potluck from noon to 3:00pm with entertainment. Admission is $15.00, is you bring a meal it is $7.00.

I did this painting of Yue Fei on a horse leading his troops. He instructed his troops not to engage until he shot first. Lived with his troops on campaigns and protected the villages and people with dignity and honor. A real Chinese legend and hero. Happy New Year. The year of the horse.
