Today I'm going to Cornwall (Wales, west coast of GB) for a weeks traning camp Kung Fu

I'll be back again on the 30th of August.

See this clip for what it was like two years ago. That was before my time.

Here are some photos I've forgotten to upload. They're all from the Fujian White Crane competition in Hastings in April this year.

Some photos from the last camp.

A couple of weeks ago I graded my third pattern of Fujian White Crane Kung Fu. That pattern is called SHI ZI (The Cross).

So today the grading results came out and I find to my great happiness that I passed it. This means that I can now start learning the fourth pattern (...surprisingly :) which is called SHI SAN TAI BAO (Thirteen Wonders). Interesting!

This does not mean that I get a different sash like they do in Japanese martial arts. No, you get a sash when you've passed your first grading and then you keep that until you become a master and get the black sash. However, if you're an instructor you wear a blue sash.
