    Is that what they told you to get the big guy in the back?

    Good comments on tail and head. The "bent" thing we call, "Don't be a camel"

    To early to tell you what to expect other then a great work out. And depending on the shows, a good way to bond with the si-hing/dai.

    Let us know how it goes.

    LOL I think it was more to keep us from bucking the tiny little guys off when they were standing on our shoulders. LOL
    What would happen if a year-old baby fell from a fourth-floor window onto the head of a burly truck driver, standing on the sidewalk?
    It's practically certain that the truckman would be knocked unconscious. He might die of brain concussion or a broken neck.
    Even an innocent little baby can become a dangerous missile WHEN ITS BODY-WEIGHT IS SET INTO FAST MOTION.

    umm scratch that earlier comment about me leaving LOl...
    after a year away, they were gracious enough to take me back...
    still not 100% sure i can get sportfighting out of my system; so I'm kinda plannin to do that on the down-low (formally under Khun Kao Charuad and Kru Danny)...

    Kinda crazy that my first day back after being gone a year saw me playing head more than I ever had in a single event.

    Thanks for the replies.

    A lot of fun! Hard work but fun.

    Im not dire but lets just say that as a dancer i'm a great cymbal player.
    Mike: I dressed up as an old Isralie woman once.

    Tim: Did you?

    Mike: I didn't HAVE too.

    I've found my lion dancing coach puts us through the ringer conditioning wise more than any of my martial arts teachers ever have. I think i am personally the strongest i've ever been because of it. I absolutely love lion dance training, not to mention performing. I'm the head, so i get to shove the head in kids faces and make them cry
    Bless you
