Shaolin Warrior Monk Shi Decheng Seminars

[GeneChing]

Yep, it's on me - THE BIG FOUR OH - and I'd like to invite you all to my party. Seriously, when does a forum moderator get a chance to do this? Of course, my birthday party will be a little different - such is the privaledge of beign an Associate Publisher.
My Shaolin monk master Shi Decheng, along with my Shixiong (another monk) Shi Xingwei, will be giving three special seminars at my other Shifu's school, Master Tony Chen's USA O-Mei Kung Fu Academy, right here in Fremont, CA on February 27 & 28 (the 28th is my birthday - I was just hours away from being a leap year kid). For more information, click here! Shi Decheng is an excellent teacher - he has taught all over the world to all levels of students. Whether you are a rank beginner or a seasoned veteran of Shaolin Kung Fu, I'm sure you'll get something out of these seminars. I hope you all can make it.*


* I hope I can make it. I haven't had a lesson under Decheng since 2001 and now that I'll be 40, I'm sure I'm in for a butt-whuppin'

Hey dude
Happy B-day, If I invite you to my party, will you bring a monk (preferrably shaolin! )?

[Shaolinlueb]

i wont be there gene but happy birthday man.

i see your enjoying yourself

[stimulant]

If the party were in England (or you send ticket...) then I would be there...maybe with my shifu to if I could think of how to say 'your invited to abirthday party' in mandarin!

[johngreenhow]

Have a good one. By the way, for those of you who never met him, Gene still looks no more than 30. Must be doing something right...

Congratulations!

[blooming lotus]

happy birthday gene...can't make it either, maybe next time ha. Oh yeah, do you realise that now when you go to China...you'll be 41

[GeneChing]

.... but hold off on the B-day wishes for another month. I must admit, putting together this monk seminar has been a great perk of the job, and I really hope to see some of you there. Instead of blowing out candles, you get to see me get spanked by some monks.

does this mean the party will be an 18R, and have a XXX certifcate??

[GeneChing]

...this is the monk that named my kid so it'll be a G presentation, kind of the way Bugs Bunny spanks Daffy Duck, not the way you'd probably like to spank Paris Hilton. But we digress.

For you SF Bay locals, or any visitors at the time, come on down for some traditional Songshan Shaolin Kung Fu. Instead of party favors, you'll leave with really sore legs.

hmm I might actually be able to work this into my schedule

[GeneChing]

Really? That's quite a commute! Not as far as Shaolin Temple, though. Hope you can make it. That would be very cool to have a distant forum member come.

[Shaolinlueb]

wel I've never been on a plane or to that part of the usa. If i dont get to go, im still planning a trip for dengfeng I am working on going though.

[GeneChing]

BTW, here's another link that promotes the seminars - click here - Tiger Claw Foundation, our non-profit org, is the primary local promoter. All the profits will go back to the monks.

I think I'll be coming up there, Gene It sounds like a blast! I'll see if any other Lohans want to come up with me.

I'll talk to you more as we get closer to the seminar time.
