A new and bold decision

I recently made the bold decision to start practicing with the Shaolin weapons. Never the one for weapons I find it a challenging practice This is the Saber "Dao" of choice for the training in the Taiji Saber fundamentals and form. I'm very excited about getting more involved in the weapons of Chinese martial arts/Kung Fu. I still prefer hand to hand combat for realistic training but started to rethink the Saber for a more disciplined exercise. One that is more structured and quite frankly more beautiful to watch. Wish me luck as the weapon forms/sequences never came easy for me. Also, practicing the Kali/Escrima sticks again. Thanks Rich for the tape with your demonstration and expert lessons. Very informative and useful!! ;)

Moving Along

This is the project that garners most all of our time. Although the economy has taken a nose dive and our schedule breaking ground date has been altered to accomodate everyone else's attitude of wanting to "wait and see" economically, we are still moving along, thankfully. Still planning the design of the outdoor store and furniture mart to entail rustic features. Can't wait until we can get some time off once this development gets to rock'in and roll'in.
