This has been a really good week for kung fu training. I have been recording good numbers with respect to my UBBT goals and am developing confidence and creativity in board breaking. We had an opportunity in our morning class to practice our board breaking skills with Sifu Prince, who has been an inspiration to me with respect to board breaking, among other kung fu related activity. This has been a fun time and I am looking forward to participating in board breaking at our in-house tournament this weekend. Have a great weekend all!

Good Things are Happening
This has been a very busy week, as most seem to be these days. Today when I had a chance to reflect on this week I have much to be thankful for. I feel that I have accomplished a lot of good things this week which make me a better person and one step closer to achieving this year's goals.
1/ A group of us participated in a practice conditioning test to open the week on Sunday, and it went very well for everyone. I have confidence in my conditioning level and also have a defined plan to get better in certain areas to be in a good position for black belt testing this fall.
2/ I participated in standard first aid training which is a black belt requirement and now have a new skillset to add for myself and family.
3/ I participated in an event with a local volunteer group, "The Healing Seed" and we were able to feed 150 stranded people who were affected by the forest fires in Northern Alberta. It was a great experience.
It was a good training and personal development week. Have a great long weekend!!

Forms Seminar
I had a great opportunity last Saturday to attend our annual forms seminar. The form I chose to work on was Lao Gar, which I really enjoy. The atmosphere, direction, and feedback that we all received from our Sifus was excellent. The improvement that you can achieve by dedicating a few hours to a specific form is amazing. It was a great week. This week finds us away visiting relatives but offers a great opportunity to work on conditioning activities.
