WWS

Posted by Jerome on May 2nd, 2012

With banquet right around the corner and finals coming up, it's perfectly normal for some people to experience a mild form of wushu withdrawal syndrome (WWS) during the month of May. Symptoms of WWS include (but are not limited to):
   - spontaneous punching or kicking
   - insatiable desire to jump up and/or down
   - eating less/getting fat
   - inordinate amount of time spent watching old Jackie Chan movies
   - becoming Asian
   - atrophied calves and/or diarrhea

If you find yourself suffering from any of these symptoms, don't worry, there is no cure. So don't bother wasting your time looking for one. Instead you can come to any of Texas Wushu's May Break practices to temporarily relieve any discomfort you have from WWS. The schedule and location for May Break practices are as follows:
   - From 5/8 to 5/29 (inclusive)
   - Every Tuesday & Friday, 5:00PM-7:00PM, RSC 1.104

If you or a loved one is suffering from WWS, please direct them to any of these practices. It might just change their life.

Thank you!

We, Texas Wushu, would like to extend our thanks to everyone that was able to attend and/or compete in the 2nd annual Texas Wushu intercollegiate tournament!

We would especially like to thank our judges, Chris Latham, David Scott, and Steven Lee, competitors from UH wushu team and other schools, and all invited guests. We would also like to thank Steven Lee for taking the time to lead the straight sword seminar.

We hope that everyone will keep working hard. There will be more tournaments to come...

...until then, jiayou!

Tournament & Banquet!!

Posted by Jerome on April 17th, 2012

Tournament Registration Deadline, Wed April 18 11:59PM
This is the last week before the tourney! I hope everyone has been practicing really hard! If you plan to compete but still haven't registered, register now! Registration will be open until tomorrow night at 11:59PM.

Straight Sword Seminar
After the tournament, Steven Lee, will be teaching some straight sword basics for everyone that is willing to learn. The seminar costs $10 to attend and we will try and provide everyone with their own straight sword (if you have your own, that would help us out a lot!). You don't have to compete in the tournament to attend this seminar. So come by, bring your money (and your sword -- if you have one).

Spring 2012 Banquet
Two weeks after the tournament we will be having our end-of-semester banquet! It is on Sunday, May 6 at Buffet Palace. Time is tentative but most likely in the afternoon. Everyone wushu-related is invited, invite your friends even (not all of them)!

Webmaster Position
Lastly, the webmaster position will be open for next semester (Fall 2012). If you wish to apply for this position please contact me!
