I agree with Chud, we do like those stories about Madame Wang. A great tribute to her and I trust her students will continue her legacy. Chud where are you training now in San Antonio?

GLW,
I was thinking the same thing too. It is tough on a lot of people in Madame Wang's circle.

Mostly with Sal de la Rosa doing Chen style right now. I also train with Dr Gary Stier in Wimberly, but haven't been to see him in a while due to family/life issues (he's an hour and a half away). I also know some TST Xingyi folks.Originally Posted by zhugeliang

There is apparently a push hands group in San Antonio now. I haven't been yet, but it should be a good way to practice and meet people: click here

Location: Lady Bird Johnson Park (near Wurzbach Parkway and Nacogdoches). Drive to back of park and look for the covered pavilion.

Feel free to PM me with any questions.
Thanks,

Thanks for posting this chud.
So far I'm not seeing much in San Antonio in the way of modern wushu and Shaolin gongfu, except at Dragon Martial Arts, but I wish San Antonio would get more of what I'm looking for.
As a result I've been going to Houston some weekends to get what I want.

You are quite welcome sir. I am just a beginning student; I posted this on behalf of the instructors, who are very good. Hope to see you there.
Understood. Things are getting a little bit better though.

There seems to be a Chun Sul (sp?) martial arts school opening on NW Military Drive near the Beijing restaurant. Anyone know about this place, what it is, etc?
choppin dat pork
wow, can't believe i missed this thread.
hope RFM can swing back this way some day, I owe him some dim sum - gonna have to ask for the secret menu at golden wok.
As far as other members from the board, Water Dragon and Vankuen I know personally and would hang out with more if i had the time. I'd like to check out that 8 step class in the park, seems like fun. Kinda in between training right now, trying to focus on fitness & slowly transitioning to boxing. Would like to eventually do Judo on Saturdays and will probably go back to muay thai with Kru Phet if only casually.
More than willing to hang out with anybody else from here, even if only to grab some tea or show off what little forms I still remember.
i thought that chun sul place was korean?
-Jack Dempsey ch1 pg1 Championship FightingWhat 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.

Looks like the spelling is Chun Sool. I guess it's Korean. It looks new. Does anyone know about this place?
