Pei Lei Wushu is participating on in the St George Bank “Start Local” project. We are seeking funding to purchase Professional Martial Arts mats. The use of martial arts mat during our Kung Fu training will improve safety especially for our junior students. Today, Christopher injured his left foot in training which would have been prevented with purchase of these mats.

We need your help next week to vote the Pei Lei Wushu Association number #1 on St George Bank Facebook Page. It took us a lot of effort to make it to the Top 60 of the national list.
