Team Building

Good morning,

I have renewed "spirit" in kung fu and and I attribute this to being part of the "Dragon / Lion" dance for the upcoming public performance on September 09th.  It has been a kick start for me which I think I needed!

I would suggest this activity for anyone who has not participated before.  It is hard to explain but you can feel a real connection to kung fu during a dance event.  I have been part of this last year, but this year is special as I do not feel any pressure.  This may be related to having experience with this type of event, and also I am not in a grading year and can just enjoy the experience.

The other benefit from participating in this event is you can develop a skillset in team building.  Being in a confined space, connected to 8 other people, and sharing the space with another animal group is a great opportunity to learn how to be part of a team and interact with many different personalities.  You will enhance your development with patience, acceptance, empathy, co-operation, facilitation, leadership, and most of all share in the team success and fun.  It is also a really good workout.

Have a great day!
