Hey, looks good. I study Chow Gar southern mantis. I think that they may be slightly related. Not been training much recently though unfortunately (credit crunch!).

One suggestion for the site - do not make the photos open in new windows, and allow each one to link to the next. After looking through the pics I noticed I had about 10 windows open.

How is the new school coming along? Loved the photos. Looks like it will be a really big place. Would cost millions to have something like that over here in England!

Hello jonbey, thank you for your suggestions, I will tell our webmaster to perform that changes.
Yes, I think Choy Gar is related to Chow Gar, I have heard it is part of its "roots", together with Hung Gar.
About the school, we are not currently training there. Cause I have moved to the other side of the city. And you have seen well, it is a big place. It is part of a Hig School, that is practically abandoned, so we took over the place. It is a shame we had to leave it. Now we are training in a smaller place. About the money, I have heard England spaces are quite expensives. It is different here, we (martial arts schools I mean) don´t have places on our own, we have to borrow it from other institutions (mainly schools)
It is a shame you can not train for lack of money. That is an advantage we have here. We teach for free :-).

Have a nice day and once again thank you for your commnets. Keep checking the site, cause we are about uploading some interesting historical pictures, and we also have a team translating the Spanish site into English
