No kfj, I was just a spectator most of the day and attended the seminar. And no, I didn't test. Way too out of shape to go through one of those.Originally Posted by kungfujunky
From everyone I spoke with, yes, it appeared that everyone had a great time. There was probably a couple 100 in the competition and then close to 300 at the seminar. A lot of old faces and quite a few new ones.

Thanks GT. I didn't even know I had placed until Master Price announced it. I had a great day, even though in sparring I got DQ'd for excessive head contact...oops!

What a wonderful weekend....I've never seen so many smiling faces....congrats to all who competed. I got to meet Kwaichang and 9th drunk for the first time....really wonderful people and great representatives of what SD is all about. The seminar was awsome...the Golden Leopard System is something I'll enjoy for the rest of my life ( figure it will take that long to get it down

Maybe I need to come teach that class then. Might not be 5 mins though, probably take me 10plus a short push hand lesson with Master Eric Smith. I learned more in 5 min. with him than in 6 months of regular classes. GT come out of the woods someday, I just keep a low profile
Yes Bent, you are going to have to take it easy on your opponents.
Kwaichang was there? Darn, I must have missed him. Wonder why he didn't sneak JP up with him. Fellow owes me a beer or two!

Baqualin,
It was really nice to meet you as well. It seems that the more folks I meet that have been in SD for a while, the more I realize why I love this system.
Man, the golden leopard shaped up really nicely. I gotta say, the fourth road is up there on my favorite forms list now. Getting to hear the little descriptions for liu shing has me all giddy and I don't really want to wait six months!
So, for everyone I got to see or meet, it was really a pleasure.

Please do, at least come in on Sat.'s @ 10am...I work with the Internal students in the second gym, I'm always looking to improve myself and them. Not this Sat. though, I'm testing for 2nd blk. sash wish me luck.
I would also like to give a special congrats. to Rob Petri from West Va. he was promoted to 5 th on Sunday and it was pretty emotional....he didn't see it coming and couldn't hardly fight back the tears. Rob is a West Va. State trooper and is in charge of all their self defense training....he has been Grand Champion at Tournments a few times.....also fights full contact no holds barred in the cage and does very well......his love for Shaolin-Do is unsurpassed and he works as hard anybody in the system.
By the way...I was warned not to get ****y with WVa. troopers you might get head butted.

Rob Petry is one of the best people I know. I got to spar him in my first tournament match as a black belt in 1998. He won of course, but I had a lot of fun.
Congrats to him. I wish I'd been there to see it.

Congrats on the good showing BM. I'll find my way up to Louisville someday to slug it out with ya!
Master Of Gai Zao Quan
Thanks. It'd be great if you could come up some time. Tell Master Mullins I said hello. I miss seeing him at tournament. The demos that he, Mike, and Kevin did are some of the best I ever saw. It ain't the same without 'em.

This thread is so awesome. The Shaolin kung fu forum should just change it's name to the Shaolin-Do kung fu forum since this is the only active thread nowadays in here.

Hey, Judge Pen,
I am one of Master Garry Mullins' students (white sash, began a month and a half ago. I have sparring techs 1-10 and short forms 1-14 so far). I am fortunate enough to take a Tuesday morning class that only about 4 or 5 students show up to, so we get LOTS of personal attention. I noticed that your location says Knoxville. I grew up there but don't remember any Shaolin schools there. Do you ever make it up to Johnson City? I'd love to talk shop sometime in person! Are you coming to the Golden Leopard seminar in October?
