The 40th anniversary show was held on the 5th of November and was a great success. We saw fantastic demonstrations from the Masters and Instructors of Golden Lion Academy which really highlighted the accumulated skills and experience that the Golden Lion Academy has, and shows what any student can achieve with hard work and dedication to training.
Another rare highlight was the induction of Sifu Arlene as a Master which was held at the end of the night.
There is nothing like being there and experiencing the show live but click here to view some photos highlighting the night.
The spring edition of The Lions Roar is here, and again it is packed with information and great articles.
Dai Sifu explains the new ways in which Golden Lion is going to be distributing informations, which will involve more internet and email (the printed newsletter will still be available on request).

The championship was held on Saturday the 28th of May at the Melbourne Sports & Aquatic Center. The Golden Lion Academy entered a large team of 12 Tai Chi competitors and 12 Kung Fu competitors.
The day ran very smoothly with the organisation and setting up being spot on. No need to worry about missing an event as there were people making sure you knew your event was coming up.
It is always good to catch-up and meet students from other schools (and self taught) and very interesting to watch other styles. Everyone was very supportive, there was a great atmosphere.
As always the Golden Lion Academy did very well with the following results:
So to all the Golden Lion competitors well done, if you are thinking of giving competition a go talk to your instructor they will let you know what you need to do.
