A big well done to Matthew, Jack, Anna, Bobby and Lauren for all acheiving their first gradings by performing the first 8 of form 1 to a good standard.

As of Monday 25th October a big well done goes also to Cara and Evie who have also passed their first gradings.

Early gradings are largely forms based, including some strength based skills and fighting application. For a list of all the forms included in the Praying Mantis Syllabus CLICK HERE. Also, be sure to check the SEMINARS page for upcoming forms training.

Gradings in General: Gradings are free and students are approached by the instructor when the instructor feels that the student is ready to grade. Once graded successfully the student will receive a certificate and be able to purchase their sash. Sashes are around £5 and can be bought from most martial arts shop, the internet or from the instructor.

On Monday 25th October @ Landscore Primary School in Crediton we held a 4 hour Kung Fu, team building and fight choreography session for children 6+.

Children got an incredible experience of Kung Fu forms training, sparring practice, warm-up and stretching as well as being coached through their own choreography.

It was great to meet and coach a new group of students who were incredibly well behaved and focused during most of the entire 4 hour session. Three of the older students got staffs and spear out for a ferocious fight choreography.....video to appear shortly. For now, here is a short slide show below of the session.

Finally, after such a long journey we reach the beginning...I am pleased to announce that the first run of hoodies and training tops are being printed and within the week will be shown off in class.

Everyones orders will be taken in class and the clothing will take up to two weeks to appear fresh from the printers. The back piece logo is displayed in the left side bar...
