Issue Six, Dec 2009
Welcome to the December Newsletter for the Samuel Kwok Martial arts association. Seasons greetings to all.
This month I have done the first of a series of articles about strength training and yes, that includes weights (controversial? Find you for yourself below). Remember if you have an article or news to submit don't hesitate to let us know. Feedback is also very welcome. Our Email.
Next month we will be expanding the information on Chi Sau on the site. This comes from a request through the site feedback. If you have Chi Sau tips you want to share get in contact or if you want some info on an area of Wing Chun not covered just reply to this email.

Strength and weight training and Wing Chun
by Dan Knight
Question: Do weights make you slow? Is doing thousands of punches the only way to get a harder punch? Answer: No! Reason: well you had better read why for yourself. However I have included science, bio-mechanics and simple facts and analogy's to help explain why. Time to upgrade your muscles? Click here to read more about strength training and how it makes a difference to your Wing Chun.

If so its time to do some real effective training by getting out of your comfort zone and getting hit. It's easier and less painful than it sounds! Click here to read more.
