I started training in Shorin Ryu 50 years ago under Eizo Shimabukuru when I was a U.S. Marine stationed in Okinawa, after my first tour in Vietnam. When I came back to the States from Vietnam in 1970 I began Kung Fu. I eventually became a Sifu in Wing Chun under Henry Leung before I met GM Cheung. I did the Bai- Si ceremony (closed door student), with GM Cheung in 2007.
