Cutting it for Cancer – Rowena Poole, 2nd Brown Belt

Anyone that has met me within the last 25 years will have only ever known me with long hair – this includes my husband!!

I am shaving it all off to raise as much money as I can, for Cancer Research.

Not the ‘Cancer Research’ that advertises on the TV.

The money will be going directly to a Cancer Research Lab. where the research and breakthroughs are made. Not into any CEO’s pockets.

I will also be donating my hair (all 22 ins – almost 56 cms, so far) to be made into Wigs for Children with Cancer

My beautiful Mum has this awful disease and I want her to know that I am doing everything I can to help her in her fight. She will never be fighting this on her own!

I have set up a page for donations.

My goal is to raise £1,000 by September 3rd (the date I have set for the shave), but I will keep the page open for a while after that date in case anyone fancies donating after the event.

All donations would be welcomed. Large and small. Please give generously, as Cancer needs to be stopped!

Welcome to our Shaolin Tradition. There is no mystery about Chinese Kungfu. It is (and it means) a great deal of commitment and hard work both mentally and physically. “Hard work” has never done anyone any harm and should not daunt those willing to make the journey. We all work hard, in one way or

Dear Students, Learning involves thinking. It seems obvious I know but so many go to Martial Arts classes with closed minds and ears and expect to learn a high art, If they are fortunate they will go back with fatigued muscles and an unbalanced idea of what they managed to “learn” besides how to make
