    Tiger Claw Foundation Events

    The Tiger Claw Foundation is promoting two events right now.

    This first is the American portion of the Global talent search for Jackie Chan's Disciples. Jackie Chan has launched an international talent search for his new reality talent show Jackie Chan’s Disciples. Ten winners will be named “Descendants of the Dragon” on the show’s finale on top of the Great Wall in October 2007. The Descendants of the Dragon will each be awarded with a film contract, as well as receive personal training from Jackie Chan. The U.S.A. competition will be held on Friday, May 27 from 2 to 6 PM at the Wu Chi Kung Fu Academy, 40924 Fremont Blvd., Fremont, CA 94538

    The second is Professor Wally Jay’s 90th Birthday Event on June 15-17, 2007 in Emeryville and Oakland, CA.

    Jackie's Disciples

    You'll find some coverage in our July August '07 issue (on stands now). The American finalist awards presentation will be held this Sunday at IntMAT at 6:00PM. I'll be at IntMAT, but I don't think I'll be staying through to the awards ceremony. Our Publisher, Gigi Oh, will be there. She was one of the judges for the American audition in our area.

    ttt for this weekend

    We are all looking forward to the festivities this weekend and are very eager to honor GM Wally Jay. If you've never met GM Jay, he is an outstanding gentleman, a pillar of the martial arts. Just don't shake hands with him.

    Here's a piece we did the last time I met with him:
    Tea with Grandmasters: Pearls of Wisdom from Martial Pioneers Ralph Castro, Ming Lum, Al Novak and Wally Jay by Gene Ching and Gigi Oh

    Ninety years - few masters can claim that kind of lifelong contribution to the martial arts. It will truly be an honor to witness this weekend.

    I hope the events bring all involved complete enlightenment. Does Judo have any Ch'an/Zen affiliations?

    No. Judo, is correctly spelled, jew-dough, and is what we use to make matzoh.
    We do not follow Buddhism, we follow the Torah.
    However, if you like I can circumcize you, with a mallet.

    LOL. Imagine the advertising. "Tiger Claw events are fun for the whole family. For a reasonable price, you can attend seminars, meet world renowned martial artists, and attain complete enlightenment! Come and begin Buddhahood with Tiger Claw!”
