Oct 24-29, Toronto–Whether your love of martial arts stretches back to the era of Bruce Lee, or is of the more recent, Kill Bill variety, there is probably no better place to be this coming week than Toronto’s Ricoh Coliseum for the 10th World Wushu Championships, which is held every two years. The grand opening ceremony is on Saturday, and will feature a performance by members of Official China Performance Troupe. (Snappy name, that.)
The promo materials promise “Full Motion, Full Contact, Full Combative”, which sounds promising, if ungrammatical. So pack up the nunchucks and do that cool “running across the treetops” thing down to the Ricoh.
Here’s something to warm you up – a little Wu-style Wushu – after the jump (probably NSFW).
