TMAS is here in the UK at the weekend and I'm curious to see who is going to this two day Martial Arts expo?

I will be there with a small Troupe as we have been invited to do a 10min set on the Lei Tai :)

I will be there supporting my Mantis and Taiji Sifu, Derek Frearson and ITSWA. I am happy to chat about wing chun and other arts as well.

I will probably be lurking around the WUSHU DIRECT Stall while not engaged in demos and stuff.

Hope to see many of you there.

Oh and I will have some Polyproplene Buttlerfly Knives for sale and general inspection :)

I'll be there on the saturday Spencer, doing a few sessions on the Lei Tai myself helping out my Sifu. Be good to catch up, likewise Paul.

Great news guys! It will be good to see you both and maybe get a photo for the Forum too?! :)

So the 'postpone until October' thing was just a promotional blip??!! It did get me worried coz the hotel is booked and everything...

Nope that's the MMA live show. The sister show that was supposed to be on at the same time. It got postponed at the last minute. The MAS is on as scheduled

I did think that as the landing page for the site has changed and a few words were exchanged between the fellas on Facebook. Thanks for the heads up though.

Very interesting bit of press, but I feel that TMAS isn't really losing out there (?) Personally, I have never heard of the dude :confused:

I think this years focus has been redirected towards the more 'Traditional' Martial Arts, which IMHO is quite refreshing actually.
