    I heard that, too. But Gene talked to someone that said it will happen.

    Unless your source is Jimmy Wong himself , I am going with Gene on this one. During the opening ceremonies of this years TJL, Master Wong said that the next TJL is definite. Gene contacted Patty (VP and Treas of Chin Woo if I recall correctly) and she said everything is a go for future TJL's.

    Doubt it will shut down for attendance. Also given the attendance and support, I don't see how they could be losing money. Only thing I can see is not being able to get insurance due to cost. That may shut it down.

    I heard they might go to every 2 years instead of every year.

    Jimmy has changed his tune

    Last time I saw Jimmy, he said it would still happen, but he was looking at changing things up dramatically. He was saying that he was looking at a location change and a potential name change. I got the feeling he was doing this to keep things fresh. His student Patty Sun has always given me the impression that Jimmy likes to keep challenging himself (and his students) and keeps pushing the edge of the envelope. My gut feeling is that his plans for TJL are along these lines. So expect many changes, but Master Wong and Chin Woo have something planned for us in 2008.

    The last time we spoke was at the Eagle Cup. Things may have changed since.

    Hey everyone,

    Received word today that the Tai Ji Legacy for 2008 has been cancelled due to not securing a venue. Bummer. Also the Houston International tournament was cancelled as well due to the Olympics, double bummer. The email I got said that if they can secure a place in the near future they may have it in the fall.
