The curriculum includes Fang Shen Do Kung-Fu (The Patenaude Family System), Sanshou (Chinese Kick Boxing), & Therien's Jiu Jitsu & Kickboxing all under one roof.
The day started with words of wisdom from Kyoshi John Therien about what it takes to become successful in martial arts. He was there to support one of his students Sensei Tuttle which is in partnership with the school's owner Sifu Patrick Marcil.
23 time World Champion Jean-Yves Theriault was also present for the event since Kickboxing will be available at the Aylmer school where he will be offering workshops.
As always our founder Sijo Patenaude was there along with myself, Sifu Stephane, Sifu Silvain, Sifu Christine and the whole family to celebrate the event.
With each master taking some time to demonstrate their specialty from self-defense tactics to energy work, trapping hands and closing to chi sao, as well as weapon training, students got more than a handful during the weekend.
It was nice to see everyone at the same place, having fun, training and exchanging energy.
"There really is a family atmosphere here" noticed one of the students. It's the best way to learn I think when you know that your instructors are there to help you and care about your development but won't let you off the hook easily when you're not giving your personal best.

Sometimes the best friend is not always the one who agrees with you but instead, challenges what you think and forces you to do better than what you thought you could do or when you feel like quitting they'll say something to get you all fired up to not quit.
I think that's a sign of a good instructor.
