| Mr. Xiong, Liang's sanshou teacher, pushing hands in Taiwan. |
“Everyone is my teacher. Some I seek. Some I
subconsciously attract. Often, I learn simply by observing others. Some may be
completely unaware that I’m learning from them, yet I bow deeply in gratitude.”
~ Eric Allen
Happy July! What do you think of the above quote? Leave me
your ideas and takeaways in the comments section of my blog.
Due to construction in the backyard of the church, all
classes will be meeting at East River Flats Park for July. The church is always
the rainy-day meeting place.
Book suggestion- Grandmaster Xiong Yanghe’s Taijiquan System
by Michael A. DeMarco.
(Mr. Xiong was one of Master Liang’s main teachers,our
Sanshou comes from him.)
Monthly Zoom Pushing Hands will be Monday, July 20th,
630-730. You’ll be getting an invite from Julie for that.
Thank You to my 10 Willow Trees who helped me with excellent
form and technique for an online seminar: Julie, Rose, John, Paul I, James, Rondi,
Karen, Peter, Margo, Michelle. Your branches are flexible, your trunk is strong, and your roots are deep. How much you’ve grown!
