    Legends of Kung Fu 2012

    So this year, 2012, seems it going to be in Houston. Who is going?

    Also they changed format. Sanshou/Sanda will be on Friday night.

    And since I do not know Houston all the well and may not attend due to not being able to take vacation days, I don't think I will be organizing a dinner. This go around.
    Master of Shaolin I-Ching Bu Ti, GunGoPow and I Hung Wei Lo styles.

    I am seeking sparring partner. Any level. Looking for blondes or redhead. 5'2" to 5'9". Between 115-135 weight class. Females between 17-30 only need apply. Will extensively work on grappling.

    Took the liberty of splitting your post to an indie thread, xck

    That way, people need not muddle through last year's thread to get to this year. For LoKF2011, see here.

    Unfortunately, I might have a *major* schedule conflict this year. I will get it sorted with Sifu Jimmy Wong when I see him at KFTC20. Of course, I hope to be there. If I fail to make it, I hope you'll be able to continue our longstanding tradition without me and post some pix here.

    I gotta admit, I'm still thinking about it.
    My parents live in Houston so no need for hotel.
    The drive is much shorter than Plano and DFW.
    It's a month out from the fight I've been working for in Oklahoma, with big gloves, so the sanshou might be good practice.
    It's what, $80 to compete as long as I apply before July 16? Not too bad.

    Might want to give a link to the actual site:

    What 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.

    Sadly, I must miss this year

    One of my shidi is getting married. We taught an evening class together and were lion dance partners. I spoke to Jimmy Wong at KFTC 20 and he totally understood.

    My wife and kid are leaving later that week for a 3 week long trip to Japan, so I want to try to spend time with them before they go. Not going to be able to make it.
