Although today is a statutory holiday, it didn’t stop IWE students from going to the Shaolin Temple early in the morning to have their first Kung Fu lesson with Master Shi Yandi. Today’s lesson covered the history of the Shaolin Temple and the five stances form (五步拳). We have a new video on YouTube! Throughout this year, IWE has been running public speaking classes for students to participate in. Our students have some amazing thoughts to share about these classes! Check it out! IWE has some slick new stickers, designed by Ariel J. Cao, a former instructor at IWE and the holder of the 2018 Miss Asia Pacific International Canada title. Thanks to her for the creative and cute design! Want to pick them up? Drop by anytime at IWE!
This past weekend, several IWE students took part in 5km run of RBC's Race for the Kids, challenging their physical stamina yet again since the BMO Run last month. In doing so, they contributed to an international initiative that has raised $47 million so far this year to support local charities. Thanks to Tina's Mom for making us this wonderful lunch to celebrate Children's Day and the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival! The traditional rice dumplings (粽子) were so yummy and the deep-fried bread sticks (油条) were perfect with home-made soy milk.
