Hey, I just saw a forum member on TV :)

..just caught the last 20 minutes of a Taiji documentary on the Travel Channel, and in the credits for the push hands section they listed "Kevin Wallbridge", who I assume is the same one on this forum. Great job, Kevin---that was a pretty cool documentary. The push hands looked good, and I also liked the 2 person sword set the women were doing.

Cheers Ky-Fi, that was me. The documentary is from a series called "Quiet Places," by Omni Films. The basic idea was to do a series of docmentaries on retreat centres. They heard about Sam Masich from Vancouver (where the production company is based) who teaches Yang style seminars, and decided to do a show on the idea of Taiji as a portable retreat. Sam asked me to take part as he is my principle Yang style instructor and we had been working closely together for a couple of years at that time. Its a nice film.

BTW I was the guy with the goatee and the ponytail.
