1995 - Master Lacey leaves Melbourne to settle in California.

For the many whose lives have been affected by his teachings and his charismatic personality, he will always be remembered and revered as one of Chinese Martial Arts most vibrant and exciting personalities. Not long after Master Lacey had settled in California and established his school he received the upsetting news that the student he left in charge of running the school in Melbourne had forsaken the oaths and pledges he made to his Sifu and the responsibilities entrusted unto him. He had become self-centered and egotistical and started to put more emphasis on kick-boxing than traditional kung fu training. This plus the fact that he had dishonored his Sifu upset the students and they began to leave and it eventually led to the closure of the St. Kilda school in 1998. After the closure of the school, Master Lacey's devoted disciple Nick Lizos relocated it a short distance away where he resurrected the BUCK SING GWOON in honour of his beloved Sifu and the original school he established in Melbourne in 1989. He is presently the official guardian and chief instructor of Australia's "Buck Sing Gwoon" based in Melbourne. Only 2 people were ever given permission by Master Dave Lacey (before his departure from Australia in 1995) to use the name "Buck Sing Gwoon." They are Master Lacey's two most trusted and loyal disciples, Gary Mallia and Nick Lizos, whose two kung fu schools in Melbourne, Australia, are the only schools officially affiliated with the original "Buck Sing Gwoon" founded by Master Lacey in mid 1985.

1989 ~ Master Lacey moves to Melbourne

After living in Perth for 23 years, Master Dave Lacey felt he needed a change and decided to move to the bigger and more exciting city of Melbourne where he intended to set up his new school to teach and propagate Choy Lay Fut kung fu.
Undaunted by the larger number of kung fu schools already existing in Melbourne, Master Lacey re-established his school the BUCK SING GWOON in 1989 in the suburb of St. Kilda. Because of the good location and his well known reputation in the Australian Chinese Martial Arts circles, it soon attracted the attention of martial arts enthusiasts seeking to learn Choy Lay Fut kung fu and train under Master Lacey including a number of disgruntled top students and instructors from another kung fu school. Missed by his students in Perth, several of them took the initiative to move to Melbourne to be with him.
