Don't forget that tonight, after practice, we'll be having a competition video viewing party. If you want food, bring $5 and we'll give you hotpot and krn bbq!

In addition, instead of normal practice on Saturday, we will be doing a club photoshoot! Please bring any super nice cameras and a friend to take the photos.

Last practice of the spring is Wednesday, May 9th at Cole Field House!

And we're back from a pretty successful collegiates! We send out a huge thanks to UVA for hosting the smoothest tournament I've ever personally been to and for being awesome reps for the east coast.

Videos are slowly going up on our youtube page so keep a look out! You can find scores at this link

And as competition season has come to an end, we will be relaxing and focusing on learning at practices again!

We had a great time at CMAT 20 in Berkeley! To check out our videos, go to http://www.youtube.com/user/terpwushuviewer! We will be uploading all the videos we took this week. Hopefully, we'll have all the videos up by the end of the week!

In the mean time, get ready for collegiates! The registration deadline was pushed back a week so you can still register! Go to this link to register!

Welcome back to school! (Boo.) If you didn't register for collegiates before 8 PM on Sunday, March 25 and you told us you were going, - please email your enrollment verification to virginiawushu@gmail.com. Thanks!


Warning: your picture may be more derpy than usual.

The deadline for Collegiates registration is just around the corner, March 25th. So please remember to register before then! Please go to this link to regsiter: Collegiates Registration .

While registering, don't worry about payment if you told us that you are going to Collegates before our deadline today. The club will be covering your registration fees! But if you didn't meet our set deadline, you will be required to pay your own registration fees.

And don't forget that Collegiates will be hosted by our neighbors at UVA wushu and is set for April 28th!

CMAT is only eleven days away! Plane tickets, hotels and car rentals have been booked so all that's left is getting ready!

In addition, we will still be having practice this Friday and Saturday despite the start of Spring break.

Mon, Fri, Sat: 6-8pm @ SPH Matted Gym
Wed: 5:30-6:50pm @ Cole Field House

Practice over the winter will start Friday, January 6th, 2012 and last until Monday, January 23rd, 2012.

Practice will be on:
Mondays - 5:30 to 7:30pm
Fridays - 6:00 to 8:00pm

We will be holding informal practices sometime over the holidays before January and we'll send out information about that over the listserv.

Terpwushu (or more accurately, Calvin) has decided to get with the times and migrate our yahoo group over to Googlegroups. Join up at http://groups.google.com/group/terpwushu!

The host of next year's collegiates is UVA! The date is Saturday, April 28th. @ the Memorial Gym. So start training!

Hey all, don't forget that we will be doing our fall weapons and shoes order this Friday so bring your cash or check with you to practice or we won't place your order.

Also, because we have concessions this Saturday overlapping our Saturday practice time, practice will be OPEN. This means that it will not be structured in the typical format. You are responsible for warming up on your own but one of our coaches, Jason Liu, will be there to help you with anything you want to work on. You can ask to learn more of your form or get advice on a move or technique you're having trouble with!

-Tina

We now have Saturday practices, from 5-8pm in SPH, for the rest of the semester. Come out and join us then too!

We need a design for t-shirts for our upcoming 7th University Wushu Games! As such, we'd like to ask our members and alumni for t-shirt design submissions! Whoever submits the winning design will get the first t-shirt with their design for free! Now for details on the submissions:

- Submit the file as a high-quality image file, preferably photoshop or something similar.
- Please keep the design with a maximum of 3 colors!! The more colors, the more expensive the shirt is to make.
- You can do designs on the front and back, or even shoulder, but try to keep it relatively simple.
- Make it a super cool t-shirt. Keep in mind that we want to sell these shirts at the tournament. In other words, keep it PG-13 mostly.

Deadline for submissions will be mid-September, so let's make it 11:59pm September 15th officially. That'll give us enough time to pick a design and talk to our t-shirt printers to get the shirt made in time for the tournament!

We just updated the registration page for our 6th UWG to include non-nandu Advanced Changquan and Nanquan events!

Hey everyone! We just got our fall practice times as well as the date for our 6th UWG!! Starting Wednesday, September 8th (our first practice), our practice schedule will be:

Finally, last summer practice is Thursday, August 19th!

Hey! If you aren't getting emails from TerpWushu, get on the listserv! Just send me the email address you want to receive TW emails at and I'll send you an invite to our listserv! You can find my email address in the "Contact Us" tab of this website. :D

If you haven't seen the email we sent out on the TW listserv, our UA jackets have arrived. We'll be bringing them to practice this Thursday. If you can't make it next practice, please give me a heads-up before you come to a later practice pick up your jacket. I won't be lugging around 30 jackets to every single practice so email me or give me a call (and we're not keeping the jackets in the closet for safety and money reasons). However, if you owe TerpWushu money for either the jacket or for last year's UWG, we'll be holding your jacket hostage until you pay us :].

Practice is cancelled on Monday, July 5th. Federal holiday :]. Enjoy your July 4th!!

We're back from the dead! Zombie-power!

The website is finally back under current cabinet access which a good sign for the beginning of my evil regime :]. I've fixed a few things (like admin access) and updated contact info and practice times. If you spot any bugs or old information, just shoot me or Allen an email/IM and we'll take care of it.

We're hoping to update the website more regularly with important information and make it more useful to you so we're open to suggestions!

And if you didn't know, summer practices have started (it's been a couple of weeks or so now) and times/locations can be seen on the upper right of the page as well as under "Information." FYI, SPH was formerly known as HHP.

Special thanks to Mikey for passing on access info! I'm so giddy off of website editing right now.

Come to TerpWushu's first ever end of the year show. Presented to you by TerpWushu, prepare to be amazed for an hour of a mix of high-flying kicks, an awesome display of weaponry, and a spectacular display of non-lethal fights. Invite your friends, family, professors for a night of fun and awe.

Tickets can only be bought at the door starting at 5PM on May 11th. They will be $2 a ticket. Please note that in honor of Mother's Day, we will charge no admission for Mothers who come and support us.

Seating will be open to the public starting at 6PM. The show will promptly begin at 6:30PM.

Monday: 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM HHP martial arts room
Wednesday: 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM HHP Gym 2 (Volleyball)
Friday: 6:30 to 8:30 HHP martial arts room
Sunday: 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM HHP martial arts room

The martial arts room is just our regular blue padded room (matted gym), 0107. The volley ball gym is 2101.

Final scores are posted.

In an effort to recruit more computer science, engineering, multi-talented computer-engineering, and other such majors that can boast of an even greater male:female ratio than our club, we will be demoing outside the PG2 computer lab on nights before major projects are known to be due. World of Warcraft developed by Blizzard Entertainment will be the theme in our campaign to hook this target audience. Our forms will be composed of WoW moves that directly resemble wushu. Simultaneously, a background projector will display Fraps-encoded video clips of actual WoW characters using these moves to pwn their foes.

Videos of the tournament: 11th Annual Collegiates Videos.
Tournament trailer created by Zhibo Lai: 11th Annual Collegiates Trailer.

Final scores: http://z-dominion.net/terpwushu/tournament/collegiates07_final.htm.
Updated team scores: http://z-dominion.net/terpwushu/tournament/collegiates07_finalteam.htm (May require a refresh to display properly).

The student groups branch of the SGA gave Terpwushu the "Best Sports Club" award for 2006. The review board was impressed with the club's many achievements over the past year, especially for hosting the 1st Annual East Coast Intercollegiate Tournament, competing in the 10th Annual Intercollegiate Tournament at University of Oregon, and for the many demo's put on for various shows. Congratulations, everyone!
