My Journey

Once a Karate enthusiast, our journey led through challenges and achievements, including a 1st Dan Black belt. Guiding junior classes added depth to our expertise. A heart condition steered the path, but our passion for martial arts never waned.

One night I was watching a movie called Ip Man, as an avid martial artist this intrigued me and ignited a new fascination.  As it seemed completely different from anything else that I had seen before.
