Thankful for organization, judges and participants

We are happy to be working with Loe Hoyer from the Hoyer Wushu Institute for the modern wushu division. We are also happy to have Ricardo Sousa from the Ricardo Sousa Kung Fu Academy helping with the traditional Kung Fu divisions.

The Cangzhou Qunying International Guo Shu Cup will have a jury which will include Martial Arts Experts and Grand Masters from China. These Masters will come especially for the competition and look forward to seeing the martial arts practitioners here in Europe.

We are hopeful that they will be present but understand that in these uncertain times that it may not always be possible.
