It is with great pain and speechlessness that I have to tell all you people that Mike Martello Sifu passed away this morning.
A great teacher, martial artist and a close friend left to soon.

Paul: and you believe they are all traditional? :o
Hi Folks:
Like Axel from Guns īnīRoses said: use your illusion! ;)
There is a double Leg takedown to find in a partnerset called Tou Hua san Dui Da and for sure some in Handsets also. Single leg...
I donīt want to speculate but the facts are:
- 2 Ba zhou forms instead of one in any other lineage

Jake, thats too bad!
But hey, if anyone MUST meet Zhang Laoshi: he will be here in Osnabrueck, Germany in November for two weekend Seminars and also his Kung Fu Brother Yu Shaoyi, a well known a...
One of the best performances I ever saw on YouTube!
Jake: whenever you want to come over: let me know! You are most welcome here!
GREAT NEWS!
Now this is a special features you sure would not like to miss americans!! I trained with both now, and all I could say: its worth a lot of effort and money to meet just one guy, but...
Just use Gou Lou Cai as offensive technique: get in close, get in contact, shove it aside and punch.
