Wushu is art in motion, so still pictures hardly do it justice. This section of my site has some original video of our wushu performances. A lot of them don't seem to work anymore... oh fuckin' well.

Dragonboat Demo 2002

Hebi was the awesome kid from the Zhejiang team who came to train with us at the Wushu Center for 6 months. During his months here, i learned a lot about performing power and spirit from the little guy. He was the junior national champion of china, yet humble and grateful as can be. These are videos of him performing at the Dragonboat Riverfront Demonstration in Hartford in September 2002.

2005 Chinese Cultural Center New Years Demo

Usually when we do the Chinese New Years Demo, we have a half hour performance with several individual forms, taiji, group forms, etc. This year, we were given about 5 minutes, and Master Hu decided to squeeze as much as possible into those few minutes. After 2 weeks of intense planning and practice, we awokened the slumbering audience with a pretty rocking finale.
