Golden Leopard New School Location

sifu — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 02:51:02 +0000

Golden Leopards move to a new training hall in South Minneapolis is progressing. A lease has been agreed on and the date for opening of the new location is October 1st, 2009.

The new location will be at 3920 Nicollet Ave So. Just a few minutes from our current location. The new location will give us better training space and the ability to expand our current class schedule. There is a lot of work that will need to be accomplished before this date but we are very much looking forward to what this move will offer. We will be working in the next couple weeks to get a new schedule and class list on the website. We will also try to keep you updated on the progress.

Dragon Festival Demonstration

sifu — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 03:11:18 +0000

Note to everyone participating in the demo. First you must have uniforms and sashes for the demo. If you are in need let me know ASAP. If you don’t have it you can not participate. Also I expect you will all be at class Monday and Wednesday evenings this next week. There may also be extra days of training this week you are all encouraged to attend. Remember you are not representing yourselves but the school and all your sihings and sijays.

Training In The Park

sifu — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 02:46:07 +0000

Plans are to begin training outdoors on Wednesday nights starting in May. It’s wonderful to be out in the warm weather and is a great time to train weapons. We loose the restrictions of the school and are able to have everyone train and move more freely. I will keep you posted on the exact date we will be starting.

Anyone needing to purchase a Pole please let Sifu know as soon as possible.
