I'm more than a little jealous. I came up in the Boulder group, and everyone here in Taipei has great stories, and things to say about Matt's skills. He is truly missed here in the whole Yizong group. I'm especially interested to hear about the push hands part of the seminar as we've been working on a pushing drill the last few weeks that seems to be an integral part of off balancing and set ups that could fit into every application, whether strikes or throws. Take notes friends and teachers in Boulder, miss you guys, cheers (not the same Matt)

Matt!
You popped up in discussion yesterday! Hope you are doing well over there!
I feel that I got a lot of mileage out of yesterday's workshops, and am super excited for today's!

Nothing but the goods!
Matt was more than generous with each subject and has a natural ability to tie all of the material over the two days into an seamless experience of awesomeness. The first day training whipping palm and crushing fist entries tied together with the push hands and elbow carrying GREAT!!! I love going to a workshop and seeing everyone there get what is going on. Thanks to Matt for the more than generous teachings, thanks to Owen and Boulder Internal Martial Arts for organizing, and a big thanks to all that came. I really am blessed to get to train with such a good group of folks!
