The Upstate
Sisters in Crime January meeting will be held WEDNESDAY, January 7, 2015 at the
Runway Cafe.
At the meeting,
Howard Lewis will present a martial arts program. He practiced
martial arts for 20 years and taught for 10. His highest rank is a 5th
degree black sash in Esoma Kung Fu. Howard says there are things in books that
drive martial artists nuts. He'll address the ones that get to him. He'll also
provide a short history of the martial arts, move to categories
(internal/external, hard/soft, long/short), then to training and how that
training manifests itself in practice. He'll spend a little time talking about
the five animals studied in traditional Kung Fu, and how their attitudes can be
used by authors. He'll also review holds, locks and bars, throws, and weapon
techniques. With any luck, everyone will be able to return to their homes under
their own power. 2015 officers will be elected at the meeting.
Our Wednesday,
January 7, meeting will be held at The Runway Café, 21 Airport Rd,
