Hi There,
Please accept my apologies. I'm going to have to cancel the kids Kung fu session this evening due to running late in from work. Apologies back on next week. See you then.

Also please note there is no session on the 7th May due to it being Election Day.

Unfortunately its the day of the local elections so the hall is being used a s a polling station so training is not on this week.
Apologies for any inconvenience, back next week as normal

Sifu Neil is teaching this evening.
See you in a bit.

Check points for Muk Yan Chong:
There are 108 movements for the Wooden Man; repeated practice brings proper use of power.
Steps vary and always maintain close contact with the Wooden Man.
Power starts from the heart and shoots towards the centreline of the Muk Yan Chong.
Up, down, back and forth, the movements are continuous.
Power improvement cannot be predicted.
The arm bridge sticks to the hands of the Wooden Man while moving; adhesion power when achieved will be a threatening force.
Power can be released in the intended manner; use of the line and position will be proper and hard to defeat.

Check points for Chum Kiu:
Chum Kiu trains the stance and the waist; the arm bridge is short and the step is narrow.
Eyes are trained to be alert; the chi flows in a perpetual motion.
Strive to remain calm in the midst of motion; loosen up the muscles and relax the mind.
Turning the stance with a circular movement, will allow superior generation of power.
When the opponent's arm bridge enters my arm bridge, use the escaping hand to turn around the situation.
Pass by the opponent's incoming arm bridge from above, without stopping when the countering move has started.
Lan Sau and Jip Sau put an opponent in danger.
Do not collide with a strong opponent; with a weak opponent use a direct frontal assault.
A quick fight should be ended quickly; no delay can be allowed.
Use the three joints of the arm to prevent entry by the opponent's ridge; jam the opponent's bridge to restrict his movement.
Create a bridge if the opponent's bridge is not present; nullify the bridge according to how it is presented.
The arm bridge tracks the movement of the opponent's body; when the hands cannot prevail, use body position to save the situation.
Using short range power to jam the opponent's bridge, the three joints are nicely controlled. Where is the opponent's bridge to be found? Chum Kiu guides the way.

Check points for Sil Lim Tau:
Siu Lim Tau comes first; Do not force progress in training.
A weak body must start with strength improvement.
Do not keep any bad habit.
Gee Kim Yeung Ma - Train the chi by controlling the Tan Tien.
To maintain good balance of strength, grip the ground with the toes.
To release chi from the Tan Tien, will enable proper release of power.
Sink the elbow and drop the shoulders; guarding the centreline to protect both flanks.
There are one hundred and eight moves, all practical and real; Thousands of variations can be used, aiming for practical use and not beauty.
Internally develop the chi; externally train the tendons, bones and muscles.
Tan Sau, B**g Sau, F**k Sau, Wu Sau, and Huen Sau; their wonder grows with practice.
Each movement must be clear and crisp. Timing must be observed.
Practice once a day, more will cause no harm.

Wishing everyone a happy new year.
May 2014 be a prosperous one for you all.
