Kung Fu Training in Fargo

sifu — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:22:16 +0000

A great time was had by all who attended our long over due Choy Li Fut training weekend in Fargo with Sifu Neil McRitchie and other members of our Kung Fu family from Winnipeg. There was a tremendous amount of sharing that occurred. Spear, sword, and pole sets, not to mention all sorts of application, knife defense and more. We encountered a little rain but not enough to dampen our spirits or stop the kung fu.

I would like to thank all those that attended for their time and kung fu. This was not only a time to share kung fu but to share ourselves and reconnect with our extended Kung Fu family.

There are all ready thoughts of a bigger and better “training camp” next year. Hope to see all the familiar faces plus many more.

Kung Fu Weekend

Golden Leopard Martial Arts Center and Minneapolis Plum Blossom will be meeting up with Sifu Neil McRitchie from Winnipeg for a weekend of fun and Kung Fu Training in Fargo, ND. For those a little more adventurous some attending will be camping, but for those wanting more comforts of home there will be hotel rooms reserved. It’s been a while since this event has been open to all students, so take advantage of this opportunity to meet and train with our Kung Fu brothers and sisters.

Training will taking place on Friday July 23rd and Saturday July 24th. Both nights weather permitting we will socialize over dinner, fire, and maybe some s’mores for dessert at the camp sites.

Anyone interested please respond ASAP (call or e-mail) so campsite or Hotel rooms can be reserved. We can then also make arrangements for those that would like to share a ride.

Hope you can come and join in the kung fu and comradeship.

The new space is not exactly complete but it is ready for training to begin. With any luck by the end of October most of the final touches will be complete. Grandmaster had give me recommendations for training hall colors and the such. I would like to thank those who have give of their free time to help with the mess and grunt work portion of the build out. With out the help we would probably still be a week or two away from getting into the new space.
