What a great night last night!! Thanks for everyones efforts …have many crazy combos to experiment with…Tonight we play with some more im really looking forward to it…For me personally i have had the best training week in 12 months …Yep its been 12 months since my knee started to break down and 6 months since i damaged my hip…My training became very very narrow to avoid making things worse and of course to minimise pain..neither of which have been entirely successful…But you know the story…Anyway lately i have had some minor breakthroughs which feel like major ones …Allowing me to regain a bit of ground and finally increase training intensity which i have missed so much…Yeah i still need surgury but this means ill go under the knife with a baseline fitness much higher than i thought possible ..So im on a bit of a high right know…I love coaching of that there is no doubt ..But for my own journey training has been who i am ..Its all about Mojo and i got a little bit back …Excited!…See you on the mat..Kuen Yao Sum Faat !…Sifu

Locker Fees…
A lot of us have been overlooking locker fees. From now on all locker fees are due by August 31st. Having a locker at the school means you don’t have to carry your gear from home, to work, to training and back. It’s only $1.15 per week for that convenience. Two peoples locker fees can mean one new body jacket for training. If you’ve already paid your fees this year, thank you! If not could you please pay by the end of this month. It’s only $60.
Now as a fun touch to it all, March is designing locker posters! If you have a fight name (ie John “The Kraken”, or Bruno “Baby Monster”, or Pierre “the Golden Cobra”) then you could have your locker personalised for an extra $10 to your locker fee – as a one-off, it would then revert back to $60 the following year.
Contact info@redboatkungfu.com for more info!!
Thanks everyone!

Parents, Students and Followers, you could help us make a difference! A special program for the teens of Heffron! Please support it with your vote online. Voting closes 15th August.
You may have heard of, seen or recieved an email from Service NSW regarding My Community Project. Myself (Amy) with my sponsor Ecominds have put forward an outreach program for youths in our area, supporting the teens in our Heffron community with a program especially developed to address the challenges that teens face.
You can vote to make a big positive change for them and your community.
The program is unique in that it specifically equips teens with tools and strategies to become emotionally resilient and thereby reduces anxiety and depression. At the core of the program is self-love (this is not about taking more selfies!).
This Program has been successful in getting to the voting round with a Government Funding initiative called My Community Project.
The project to vote #1 is called “Wings Within”.
Residents (16 yrs and over) of the Heffron electorate can vote on this project.
Heffron includes these suburbs:
Moore Park
Zetland
Mascot
Eastlakes
Tempe
St Peters
Alexandria
Waterloo
Centennial Park
Rosebery
Kingsford
Kensington
How to vote:
Login to your Service NSW account then head over to https://mycommunityproject.service.nsw.gov.au … you just need a valid medicare card handy, select Heffron as your electorate, shortlist 3-5 projects and put Wings Within as #1.
Voting closes 15th August so we’d be so deeply appreciate a helping hand for teens with your valuable vote.
Please share this email with anyone in Heffron who would support the transformation of teens in their community.
Click for the Fact Sheet on the Project if you’d like to read more.
The launch of the project could mean that Red Boat Kung Fu will play a pivotal part in our community in facilitating change in the area.
Thank you so much!
Let me know how you go and if you need any other info.
