Dear all,
A major competition is being planned and scheduled for September 5/6 this year called the "Martial Games" - It is being held at Loughborough University just near Leicester.
There are finally categories for Traditional Chinese Martial Arts Northern Southern and Internal. No not just Tai Chi Chuan...but Hsing Yi, Ba Gua, Ba Ji, etc etc etc.
San Shou is also being organised
I know the organisers are looking for help from the TCMA to make sure that the Internal Arts are represented correctly and fairly, they are looking for judges with a good solid TCMA background in the Internal Arts
There is media coverage being discussed from Bravo or Channel 4. A Masters Exhibition Demonstrations etc.
There have only been 1 or 2 places to showcase TCMA in the UK over the past few years, the "Martial Games" is well funded and will be an annual event growing Internationally. So if you practice teach Internal Arts please contact the organisers if you would be willing to judge or help make this an event where all practitioners of TCMA Internal Arts can go and showcase their arts.
Competitors also needed, there wil be categories for Hsing Yi, Ba Gua, Ba Ji, Tong Bei, etc single person forms, weapons forms, two man forms.
