"As someone who isn't a very sporty person, I never really expected that I would be in Wushu. But here I am! I joined Wushu because I wanted to learn something new and step out of my comfort zone. You may ask, why wushu out of all the other clubs out there? Well, firstly it was because I wanted to learn some self-defence and secondly it was because of the people here! After going for different trials, I felt that the people here at wushu were the friendliest and the warmest. And now, after being in the club for almost a year, I can tell you that the people here are awesome, and make training extremely fun. If you would like to sweat it out and have fun, wushu is the place to be! I also learnt new cool stuff like gong li quan and how to use a spear. I find spinning the spear very fun and cool. If you would like to know how to spin a long stick or anything, wushu is the place for you too!
Overall, I'm very happy that I decided to join Wushu back in Y1 and wouldn't have it any other way!"
