Thread: Yang Jwing-Ming's kung fu retreat?

  1. #256
    Kung fu academy for 10 years only.

    it is full time and 10 years.

    retreat would means short time away and not 10 years away

    many people do a few days weekend or several weeks retreat or camp.

    ----

    or even a few hour's seminar

    i enjoy having access to the internets and video games.

    also, pr0n.
    It is bias to think that the art of war is just for killing people. It is not to kill people, it is to kill evil. It is a strategem to give life to many people by killing the evil of one person.

    I was on the metro earlier, deep in meditation, when a ruffian came over and started causing trouble. He started pushing me with his bag, steadily increasing the force until it became very annoying. When I turned to him, before I could ask him to stop, he immediately started hurling abuse like a scoundrel. I performed a basic chin na - carotid artery strike combination and sent him to sleep. The rest of my journey was very peaceful, and passersby hailed me as a hero - Warrior Man

    YMAA Retreat Center student videos

    Many videos posted by the students at the YMAA Retreat Center: YMAA Retreat YouTube Channel.

    You can see regular video blogs of the students discussing life on the mountain, scenes of them training and teaching in the local area. Part of their 10-year curriculum is video production and publishing, thanks largely to donated equipment from a San Fran-based director, who also donates her time as their video instructor.

    They will soon be selling downloads of instructional clips through this YouTube channel.

    Full curriculum: detail pages in left-side menu.

    In the 10-year program, they are learning barehand long fist kung fu, white crane kung fu, taijiquan, Staff, Saber, Sword, Spear, projectile weapons and others, Injury Treatment, Horseback Riding, Firearms, Qigong Theory, Grand Circulation, Qigong Massage, Meditation, Medical Qigong, English Literature, Chinese language, History, Teaching/Instructing, Business, Financial Planning, Nonprofit Fundraising and Grant Writing, Cooking, Music, Gardening, and other martial styles from guest instructors in the later years of study.

    Go visit and see for yourself: Visitor Info

    Thanks Gene. Kung Fu mag has been a supporter since the start and continues to help spread the word about this cool project.

    Did he lose 5 ?, or is he adding 5 ?.

    USA probably not the best place to look for students., but I guess who else could afford it.

    can be tough for people to fork out 10k a year for kungfu who are under 25. if they can afford it they have a career and likely arent interested in devoting their life to kungfu....some of the best students around probably couldnt ever afford.

    Lucas, you know I only sponsor nacho ninjettes, not wannabe zombie ninjas.

    As for the conjugal visits, the guys do get out from time to time. They were at TCKFMCIII and really enjoyed the afterparty. They came, partied, left to check out San Jose, and then came back super late to party some more. Those disciples have stamina. I respect that.
