The Trip was an amazing one, starting with a nice welcome dinner with sifu Tang Chung Pak, sifu Sunny So and Kung Fu historian and expert sifu Clifford Ip.
The next few days were spend on training and discussing Wing Tjun’s history and a visit was made to the late GM Yip Man’s Grave and the ving tsun athletic association and the playing field road where the Late grandmaster Tang Yick had his school during the last years of his life right after the closing of Dai Dak Lan in the late seventies.
