MMTCA February Newsletter 2026

 



“Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own.”

~ Bruce Lee

 

February brings with it the Chinese Lunar New Year, the Year of the Fire Horse, on the 17th. We will be celebrating Sunday, February 15th at 100PM at the church. Our demo, altar ceremony, and ritual will be at the church, and a banquet at Yangtze restaurant in St Louis Park after. I’ll send out a finalized email for you to RSVP for the banquet. May the Horse be a great year for us all!

New curriculum will start after the demo, but we are also beginning our Willow # 4 journey and Wudang Sword 1st section now. More to come!

The monthly zoom Pushing Hands will be Monday February 2nd, 630-730. An email invite is on the way.

I also want to invite you for a zoom book discussion of the chapters from last month’s newsletter. You don’t need to be current to join the discussion. I’m thinking the 16th, who’s in?

One of my Northern Praying Mantis teachers, Sifu Tony Chuy has died. And on the same day, one of my oldest friends and students, Craig Dawson, also passed to the celestial dojo above. Rest in peace…




Goodbye Snake, welcome, Horse! Peace, blessings, health, wealth, joy, and calm to us all.

-Sifu Ray
