Eight-Step Preying Mantis Kung Fu of the East-Side & Seattle

This group has been initiated in order to get more like-minded martial artists to train in the East-Side region (and Seattle since we have a school in that location). A number of people have been looking specifically for a Praying Mantis style of martial arts and so I wish to make it easier to find us.

Starting on the 22nd Aug 2009CE/012TL we'll be meeting outdoors at the field next to the Bellevue Regional Library or other relatively easy to find location (and of course there's also our branch-school in Seattle). We wish to gather serious martial artists together and train in our kung fu in a manner that keeps our skills enhanced. Tom Sumbera-Sifu and Aéius Cercle-Sifu will lead the sessions (Shishung Aric of Seattle will cover classes in the Seattle branch when Sumbera or Cercle-Sifu may not be present).

For joining this group you should be willing to train out-doors and be the type of person who is willing to follow-through on developing and improving yourself (both in skill and mental-alertness). Don't worry, we'll go over the skills you might need to succeed, but one's study is ultimately an individual-effort. Due to Sumbera-Sifu's schedule as a fireman-paramedic the meet-up schedules for the East-Side region will be made according to availability (either Saturday or Sunday afternoon and from 13h00 until 16h00 is when we do our training ~ possibly even longer).
