Golden Tiger Seminar
North Austin School
Master Joe will teach the Golden Tiger Seminar at 4pm on January 19th. If you didn’t get the special price during the holiday sale, you can still register for $60 online or at the door.
This seminar is open to Junior Black Belts, and all adult students.
I can tell you personally, that I always loved this form and he hasn’t taught it out in over 20 years! If you like Chin Kong, you will also love this form. – Master Sheryl
From Master Joe:
This has been a favorite form of mine since learning it 25 years ago. It is related to the 1st degree brown belt tiger form. It is a beautiful yet deadly form that flows with powerful moves and tiger spirit. You will be able to learn this quickly and be able to hold onto it for years to come, because it is put together so well. This will make it one of your favorite forms. It is GREAT for tournament competition. I am so excited to teach it again.
Register Here to take this seminar.

Mantis Class (1st of the Year)
North Austin School
(You can also participate via Zoom)
In 1994 Grandmaster Sin started a mantis seminar series that ended up covering a tremendous amount of material over the next several years. I haven’t taught out this sequence in 20 years. I want to start having a monthly class (the last Friday of each month) where we work our way through this material. It has short forms, many long forms, two-man set forms, two-person drills, and pressure point hitting techniques.
The class will be 4:15 PM to 5:30 PM on the Sundays listed above. As time goes on and the review of material takes more time, we might add a little more time to the class. We will see how far we get through this list in the next 12 months. I am planning to award a special patch for your uniform or some indication of when people reach milestones in this training.
- Jade Ring Stance short forms
- 10 Roads of Springy Leg
- 7 hands sticking hand training
- 8 two man sets for blocking and striking training
- Penetrating Hammer First (long form)
- Lean and smacking training – short-distance striking training
- Stomping Crushing Fist
- White Monkey Out of the Cave
- Secret Door Mantis (two-man set form)
- White Monkey Steals the peach
- Pick and Play Mantis
Open to KUNG FU & TAI CHI adults
This is a commitment to the full year of training. To register for the class please email Master Sheryl to get your monthly payments set up for $40.

Testing with Grandmaster Sin
North Austin School
This is for anyone ready to test next month – if you are unsure of whether that applies to you, you can check with M. Joe.
We need your name as it will appear on your certificate, the rank you are testing into, if it’s a belt or sash, and if it’s a belt, we need your belt size. Email Master Sheryl with this info as soon as you can.
EVEN if you are not sure that you’ll be on that list, we need to know ASAP so that we have enough belts, sashes, certificates in the school.
