Tiger Claw Foundation Events

The Tiger Claw Foundation is promoting two events right now.

This first is the American portion of the Global talent search for Jackie Chan’s Disciples. Jackie Chan has launched an international talent search for his new reality talent show Jackie Chans Disciples. Ten winners will be named Descendants of the Dragon on the shows finale on top of the Great Wall in October 2007. The Descendants of the Dragon will each be awarded with a film contract, as well as receive personal training from Jackie Chan. The U.S.A. competition will be held on Friday, May 27 from 2 to 6 PM at the Wu Chi Kung Fu Academy, 40924 Fremont Blvd., Fremont, CA 94538

The second is Professor Wally Jays 90th Birthday Event on June 15-17, 2007 in Emeryville and Oakland, CA.

Jackie’s Disciples

You’ll find some coverage in our July August '07 issue (on stands now). The American finalist awards presentation will be held this Sunday at IntMAT at 6:00PM. I’ll be at IntMAT, but I don’t think I’ll be staying through to the awards ceremony. Our Publisher, Gigi Oh, will be there. She was one of the judges for the American audition in our area.

Not CMA but still worthy of mention

Tiger Claw Foundation

ttt for this weekend

We are all looking forward to the festivities this weekend and are very eager to honor GM Wally Jay. If you’ve never met GM Jay, he is an outstanding gentleman, a pillar of the martial arts. Just don’t shake hands with him.

Here’s a piece we did the last time I met with him:
Tea with Grandmasters: Pearls of Wisdom from Martial Pioneers Ralph Castro, Ming Lum, Al Novak and Wally Jay by Gene Ching and Gigi Oh

Ninety years - few masters can claim that kind of lifelong contribution to the martial arts. It will truly be an honor to witness this weekend.

I hope the events bring all involved complete enlightenment. Does Judo have any Ch’an/Zen affiliations?

No. Judo, is correctly spelled, jew-dough, and is what we use to make matzoh.
We do not follow Buddhism, we follow the Torah.
However, if you like I can circumcize you, with a mallet.

[QUOTE=FalunDafa=good;770822]I hope the events bring all involved complete enlightenment.[/QUOTE]
LOL. Imagine the advertising. "Tiger Claw events are fun for the whole family. For a reasonable price, you can attend seminars, meet world renowned martial artists, and attain complete enlightenment! Come and begin Buddhahood with Tiger Claw! :smiley:

Man I looooooooovve babelfish!

Lu Ming is said that qigong is one of China’s traditional culture is also applicable to today’s busy society, Yang Shen law. Qi Gong is not only because of physical exercise and practice of people-in-one of the world as a whole concept, a ‘preventive’ health concepts from the day-to-day self-health, disease prevention. He said that in 2001 to 200 3, Qi Gong Association of China will be more than the entire Department of qigong organizations fit into the modern training exercises, which are 6 feet in this respect, Ba Duan Jin, Yi Jinjing, five poultry show.

Omniglot: http://www.omniglot.com/links/translation.htm

Omniglot isn’t bad at all. Thanks!

I still like babelfish better. It’s so abstract.

There was a nice color photo in today’s local paper, the Argus.

Well, here’s a long overdue ttt

I haven’t been keeping up with this thread obviously. We’ve done a ton of stuff since 2008 - see here (and that’s just the general org, you have to go into the separate Friends section to get the rest).

I’ve been spearheading our latest project. Throughout 2010, the Year of the Tiger, the Tiger Claw Foundation will be supporting WildAid’s efforts to protect wild tigers.

Tiger Claw’s KungFuMagazine.com Championship II and Shark City Nationals are holding a special showcase competition for the WildAid Tiger Champion. For details, click here. Tiger Claw’s KungFuMagazine.com Championship II and Shark City Nationals are June 12, 2010 in San Jose, CA.
