Hello,
I just stumbled across this forum, and am surprised that I had never spotted it before, as it seems to be huge.
I have always liked Chinese martial arts, initially inspired by watching Jackie Chan films while doing A level (I know that I should not admit that, but that is how it started). So when I went to Uni I found a Hung Kuen club and enjoyed it thouroughly. Unfortunately my Astrophysics was not as good as my kung-fu, so I had to leave Preston, and was sent to Coventry. It took me about 10 years to find another style I really liked, which means I have tried quite a few. But I now practice Chow Gar southern mantis, and have been doing this for quite a few years now, although I cannot remember what year I started. I think it must be 4 years by now, maybe 5.
Anyway, hi! I'll browse through the forum now to see how I can contribute.
Cheers,
Jon.
