● Kids are absolutely welcome to attend (and participate!) but require adult supervision.
● There will be a wide selection of percussive instruments for anyone who needs to borrow, but you're encouraged to bring your own if you have them. Didgeridoos, Native American flutes, rhythm bones, etc. are also welcome.

● As always, please remember to remove your street shoes upon entering, in respect to the guan which Eliot has so graciously been letting us use for the MDC.

Enter the Dungeon
Join our extended Kung Fu family in New York for this wonderful opportunity not just to work with Shigong Gary’s teacher Shitaigong Gregg, but also Shitaigong Gregg’s teachers, Master Kwong and Master Ortiz.

Students who attended Shitaigong Gregg’s workshop in August will have a chance to review short sticks.
