Learn A Bit At A Time

Learning Kung Fu is not an exact science.  Each student learns at a different pace and has different levels of natural ability, coordination, learning aptitude, focus and self motivation.  Everybody loves learning new techniques and forms but it is important to remember to take your tome to allow your body and mind to absorb the new material.  It is natural to think that you can absorb more than you were taught but it is best to channel that energy into repetitions of the things you learned in the current and past classes.  It is almost impossible to be correct without repeated execution.  Remember to take as much joy in improving as you do in learning new.  This will greatly increase your overall result over time.

New Instructor in the School - JP

We proudly promoted JP to Instructor level on Thursday night.  Congratulations JP!!  The only question we have is whether or not you wore the new belt to work.  

I have been away for quite some time due to work related reasons.  Now that I have a chance to return to do some writing, I took a browse through some past posts and came across this one.  We are all a bit older since I last posted so thought I would link back to it.

Hopefully I will be adding more content again very soon.
