This is my first time writing a short story. Please forgive any mistakes. I'm learning as I go, but this is the first step. I hope you enjoy it. and offer suggesstions, i open to learning more.
Note: this is a training video, not an instructional one.
The Hung Sing Choy Lee Fut system (original name: Hung Sing Fut Gar) is a Chinese martial art for traditional kung fu combat training. This is not one of your run of the mill schools of kung fu. Our system has been tried and test since it’s inception in 1851, all the way down to current times. In the old days, our system was used on the battle field in life and death combat during the many “revolutions” that took place in China between 1851-1949.
Our elders have fought Western boxers, Muay Thai, rival kung fu factions, bandits, rogue government soldiers, defended their country against the invading Japanese, and even aided in the overthrowing of the Qing Dynasty in 1911. Today, we are continuing our combative path by entering Sanda/Sanshou competitions and the like. However, it is not our goal to become sport fighters. It is our goal to always maintain the efficiency and longevity of our style, lineage, and integrity.
Titles, money, fame are only for those actively searching for that. WE, are just your average people who want to know how to effectively use kung fu as it was intended, protection of ourselves, our friends and our family. Note: we are never trying to impress anyone or looking for others approval in what we do. What we do is for US, By Us. Still, we do appreciate the kind words you may have for us and our training. Train hard, fight hard. Great Victory is IN THE HOUSE.
