WT synergies – four Masters in one seminar

A special advanced training seminar for the teachers and instructors of the WT schools operated by Sifu Roland Liebscher-Bracht has been held at the Frankfurt WT Academy. Last December Sifu Giuseppe Schembri, 6th Master level WT and Sifu Roland Liebscher-Bracht, 5th Master level WT, had already held a joint class for the Frankfurt instructors. As this seminar met an enthusiastic response, Sifu Roland recently offered his instructors a further opportunity to learn from other WT Masters without the need to travel long distances to the venue. This time the event was even more attractive, as not only two but four Master levels were there to teach – Sifu Roland had also invited Sifu Andreas Gross, 6th Practician WT and Dai-Sifu Oliver König, 6th Practician WT to Frankfurt. This event was an innovation within the seminar programme of the EWTO, as it is unprecedented for WT students to benefit from the concerted knowledge of four Masters teaching small groups.

Teaching was according to the latest standards prescribed worldwide by Great Grandmaster Leung Ting. The seminar participants enjoyed the opportunity to experience the varied and mutually complementary explanations and corrections of the WT Masters. It is to be hoped that more and more EWTO Masters will decide to cooperate with each other in this way and make seminars of this kind more frequent. The possible synergies arising from the knowledge and skill of almost thirty Masters within the EWTO offer an interesting perspective.
