    Two person drill video, Holiday greetings

    Thought I would drop in and wish all of my mantis friends the best for the holidays
    and the new year to come.
    I have included a link to a Youtube Video we shot Saturday morning
    with our young lady student Lindsay " minimantis" as some know her on the forums. She has been a great person to train. take a look if you have time.

    Very nice! I gotta say, looking at the vids that get posted here is somewhat of a bitter/sweet experience for me, since there isn't a mantis school even remotely close to my area.

    Very nice Mike! Great to see a woman training hard core in the martial way, keep up the good work coach!

    Naja,
    Nashville has a Pong Lai group bro! Closer than you think!
    Cheers

    Mike

    Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks for sharing the clip of Lindsay, she has good skills and I like her power. Well done sir.

    naja

    Check your thread about video. And thank you Jake for the props. I would make it well worth a 4 hour drive.

    Well I guess it all depends on ones level of commitment and dedication, but I would give certain parts of my body to be a mere 4 hours away from my teacher! I still have to fly to see Tim!
    But I understand. Like Yu Shan said, check out Oso. All good peeps! And I do not recommend many people!

    Three Harmonies, I've only been in kung fu for about 4 months now, so I'm not sure I could digest everything I would be taught. Perhaps later down the road would be a different story in regards to Nashville. I think I'll try Oso since he's only about 90 mins away.

    Thanks for all the info guys!

    naja, you must be in Knoxville. Give me a shout if you want to travel over.

    Johnson City actually. I went ahead and updated my location, I guess "east TN" was a little vague. Saw your other reply in regards to the vid. I'll try and get in touch with you in the next few months...

    I was about to say the same thing. Tell her to keep her hands up. My sifu enforces and drills this. Sifu will let you know physically why you should keep your hands up if you get my drift.
