I can remember the first time my father showed me a martial arts film at an early age. After watching it I had said, "Wow Dad, I want to do that!"

The movement and skill of the martial artist, what they could do with their hands, arms, legs and feet amazed me. When I came across Tang Sou Dao I was more than eager to try it out.

I joined in 1995 and working steadily to improve my skill and technique. Now by teaching I wish to share my knowledge with others on how Tang Sou Dao can benefit students both physically and mentally, in and out of the class.

I have certainly benefited from my Tang Sou Dao training in both these ways. It has helped me to become fit, strong and flexible. It has taught me to be relaxed but focused, not just in class but in every day life. Tang Sou Dao has allowed me to move and co-ordinate with confidence and balance by the skilful application of hand and foot techniques.

Through the years of regular training, Tang Sou Dao has improved my mental concentration and self-confidence. It has helped me to become disciplined both in and out of the class and it has taught me self-control.

I hope that Tang Sou Dao can do for others what it has done for me.
