I'm really glad you've been able to arrange a reprise for Msr. Cartmell, Sean. People who attended last year's seminar will gain new insights building on what was covered before. Newcomers will get practical hands-on guidance to improving their game at whatever level.

For anyone interested in how the Chinese martial arts understand "internal skill," you will get a common-sense, well-informed perspective from Tim, who can and will show what he means with precise hands-on examples applicable to other martial arts.

Highly recommended.

Once again many thanks to you, Tom, for making the whole thing possible in the first place!

His coming here really changed my practice and teaching for the better and was a breath of fresh air for many people here stuck in the realm of taiji myth and mystic.
For these people, years of wondering and questioning just melted away as Tim explained and demonstrated "internal power" and taiji combat strategy in the most practical, clear way I've ever encountered.

@GrahamB
Yep, Tim is one totally proficient dude! One thing we worked on last time was performing the "techniques" slowly, controlled and with flow. Always remaining relaxed, aligned and in control. This idea really shows in his work, be it taiji or bjj.

Another great seminar with Tim here in Lille!!

Friday night was up in Lys-Les-Lannoy at the AAM BJJ Club for a workshop on open guard passes.
Lots of detailed corrections for the 34 participants. Everyone loved Tim's teaching, and they're looking forward to bringing him back next year for a massive BBJ seminar!!

On Saturday and Sunday Tim went over the power exercises, the opening and the first 3 sections of the traditional Sun form, showing posture testing and application templates for each move. As usual, he explained internal power, taijiquan body method and fighting strategy so clearly that, well, no one had any questions. They were just doing it!

Next stop, Paris, where Tim will give some workshops for Ed Hines and his Bagua students.
Thanks Tim for all the great information and teaching! Awesome as usual!
And Tom, we drink a toast to you!

Nope, no Photoshop there, Tom! I just convinced Tim to give a good Belgian beer a try. That and the massively rich desert just about put him under the table! He's going to have to go on a France-detox back in Cali!
