    it's about time you guys got a new space open, I mean, it was way too weird having NO Boston fighters at San Da events, sort of like X-mas with no Catholics, or a Bar-B-Q with no meat

    Congratulations Mutant that's great.
    I quit after getting my first black belt because the school I was a part of was in the process of lowering their standards A painfully honest KC Elbows

    The crap that many schools do is not the crap I was taught or train in or teach.

    Dam nit... it made sense when it was running through my head.

    Contemporary wushu for now (not my personal favorite...) but we may add traditional down the road (we have a sort of eclectic mix of different traditional CMA backgrounds) once we get settled in and develop the program more.

    The wushu class will be a beginner class to start off, taught by Ming Tung (one of Yao's old instructors) . Ming has been talking to one of Nick Gracenin's top guys about coming to Boston to take over that role, and he even spoke with Nick when he was in town last month about some kind of collaboration. We're really still working out the details and schedule for the non-sanda programs and trying to figure out what will work and be successful. We're open to imput too, any comments or suggestions from you guys would be helpful.

    Hey man, thanks.

    Actually, none of us really have much experience dealing with them... I taught a weekend kids kungfu class for a while like 8 years ago, and i recall that it was kinda fun, kinda frustrating, and kinda pointless because there was only one kid that got anything at all out of it. I was doing it as a favor for someone and bailed as soon as I could.

    Not sure about the exact ages yet, i guess whatever age the moms are willing to pay us to teach. Probably around 8-12??? It will be an afternoon class before the real stuff starts. I may help on the weekends, and my wife may help with some of the kids stuff sometime too. I think Marvin might actually teach the class for a while, at least to start off. Now that could be interesting, LOL!

    We'll also have lunchtime cardio-based class too, for the worker-bees downtown.

    Yeah Akhilleus, any tips you could give me (us) would be great!
    You could PM me if you don't feel like describing all your diaper-kungfu tricks to the board

    LOL...tell me about it...but there are ways to make it less frustrating, and have them get more out of it...coincidentally, I had to type up a bunch of ideas for a kids' program anyway for a meeting I have coming up for one of the school's I teach at...I'll send you a copy, hopefully this weekend...I've been teaching kids for years so I've learned a lot by trial and error, and by talking to some of the most succesful people in the business, but I still have a lot to learn...
