Fellow mantis practitioners, I was wondering if you wear traditional chinese uniforms at training.
My sifu has introduced green tights (like the stuff they wear for ballet but green) so that we look more like mantis and give us the inspiration to act like one.
I think your instructor wants to see you in tights
Nobody does that except for Peter Pan. No one has heard of Green Mantis or anything as wacky as this, maybe it’s time to check out the Karate school down the block.
I must say I agree with all the other possters on this one…wearing green tights to make you look like a mantis? whats next? breaking your arms so you can fold them back, just like a mantis? This definitely sounds weird. As for my kwoon, i am in the beginners class, so we still wear usual workout clothes, but sifu is slowly getting us to wear traditional nothern kungfu uniforms, in school colors of course.
