Welcome!
It is with great pleasure to welcome you to the 2003 Taiji
Legacy International Martial Arts Championships, celebrating
the Year of the Ram. This event is hosted by the USA Chin
Woo Federation and sanctioned by the USA Taiji Federation.
The Taiji Legacy will be unique in its own, gathering all
styles of taiji and kungfu from all parts of the world, making
it a spectacular event. A 72 foot, multi-colored, illuminated
dragon and 8 lion dance demonstration and performances by
all major styles of taiji will be displayed at the opening
of the tournament. A demonstration by nationally and internationally
distinguished masters will be held Saturday morning, August
2, and on Saturday evening, we will host the exciting Sanshou
Fight Night.
Last years competition was a success, drawing in nearly
800 competitors and 3000 spectators to this event. This year,
we are inviting schools from around the world and anticipate
that 900 to 1000 competitors will be participating in this
event! With the support from local and guest judges and officials,
we predict that this tournament will again be well organized
and run efficiently.
Hosted in the beautiful city of Dallas, Texas, the Taiji Legacy
will be held in the spacious Arlington Convention Center,
conveniently located approximately 10 minutes from the Dallas-Fort
Worth International Airport. It is also five minutes away
from Six Flags and Hurricane Harbor. Just across the street
from the Arlington Convention Center is the Ballpark in Arlington,
home of the Texas Rangers. We aim not only to make your visit
to Dallas pleasant and memorable, but also to present you
an immensely challenging competition that you will enjoy.
We hope to see you all!
