“Don’t obey in advance.”
~Tim Snyder
It’s weather like this that makes me smile and say I’m glad I live in Minnesota! My Carleton College class has been going outside for a few weeks now, and as of June 3rd we are officially having classes outside. We’ll use the church as our rainy-day back-up space, but for now, class outside unless you get an email or notice.
Tuesday 6-8PM = St Sahag back yard
Wednesday Zoom 630-730PM = your choice!
Thursday 6-8PM = East River Flats Park
Saturday 9-11AM= East River Flats Park
We will be doing much more weapons work including review of weapons
forms and Wudang Sword, continue learning Section 5 of Sanshou, and do some
work on the Right Side of the Solo Form.
We will also be doing the basics of Double Saber, both solo
and two-person. You will need two 24-inch rattan sticks. Let me know if you
need a pair and want to make a group order. Otherwise, you can either go to
Rising Sun (Tell Lynn I said Hi!) or go online.
In Bagua we will continue with Sensitivity and Sword, and we’ll be doing a Qinna study. In Xingyi we will work on the 5 Elements and Spear, and add some two-person practice, either the Cover Form or 5 Elements Sticking. Any questions or requests, feel free to reach out.
The last monthly Zoom Pushing Hands class will be Monday, June 30th. We’ll resume in the Fall.
Book suggestion= I’ve made this suggestion many times
before, and I’m happy to introduce people again to the BEST martial arts periodical I’ve
ever read... The Pa Kua Chang Journal!!

I’ve gotten a few inquiries about private classes. I have
limited time and space, but with the nice weather I can accommodate a few more during the Summer months. If you are interested, contact me and make me an offer, we’ll
see what we can do.

Let’s have a great outside season of classes, practice,
learning, and fun!
