Dear Rising Crane Penarth Members,

I hope you are all enjoying the bank holiday weekend.

I just wanted to let you all know what is happening at the Penarth School at the moment.

Next week is 'Half Term' break, so please do not turn up for regular class, as I won't be there ;)

If I get a chance to open up next week for free training, I will post it on the Facebook group. This is the private members only group, so check it out for resources, files, videos and also feel free to ask questions there about training etc. Also, feel free to post pictures/videos of your practise to encourage and inspire everyone.

I also use instagram a bit (But am more of the Facebook generation, so please be patient with my lazy, occasional instagram posts):

Also- there are hundreds of videos on my Youtube page, you can see videos of my teacher in China, lots of kung fu and tai chi videos there, also:

RAE'S PILATES:

The upstairs studio is now hosting Rae Carpenter's Pilates and Wellbeing.

You may have noticed a very welcome improvement to the facilities, thanks to Rae's attention to detail :) There is now a kitchen area, where members can chat and grab a tea or coffee and sit down before or after class, I hope you all enjoy this! Also, If you know someone who wants to learn Pilates, you can let them know.

NOT BEEN TRAINING FOR A WHILE?

A number of people have dropped out of the classes, I know life happens, and we can't always control our time or circumstances. Perhaps you want to get back to class but not sure how? Please don't be shy- some people have said they want to get back but thought they had missed too many classes etc. There is no time like the present (actually, there is only 'now', but I don't want to get too metaphysical on an email ;) )

Simple reply to this email with 'I want to come back' - and i will reach out to you personally and we can continue your tai chi or kung fu journey.I want to help.

Summer Camp Intensive:

If you want an intensive week of training to really push your progress, I am hosting a week of 6 hours per day practise at the end of July. We have students signed uip from Wales, England, Ireland, the Netherlands and the USA! A great chance to meet our international family and learn at  level that is simply impossible in a couple of classes per week. The cost is £210 (just £5 per hour) if you sign up early.

Here is a link with the details:

SUMMER COURSE

Here is the link for tuition payment - if you paid a half term then please select 'Half term' on the options, to pay the remainder. This does not need to be done until after the half term break, please do it at your convenience :)

OK, enjoy the break and I look forward to seeing you for the second half of term.
