Meet the Instructor: Dr. San Fung-German

Dr. San Fung-German has been studying Chito Ryu Karate for more than 25 years and has been an instructor at Halifax Ryuseikan since 2011. She holds the rank of 3rd Degree Black Belt.

A former WKF Canadian Kumite Champion (-53kg), San represented Canada from 1994–2004 and earned multiple national medals, including a WKF Kata bronze medal in 2001.

Internationally, she is a 6-time Chito Ryu Soke Cup World Champion:
• 3x Kumite Champion (1998, 2004, 2013)
• 2x Kata Champion (1998, 2013)
• 1x Team Kumite Champion (2004)

She was also the 1998 Kumite Grand Champion, winning the featured heavyweight vs lightweight match, and earned overall Soke Cup Grand Champion honours in both 2008 and 2013.

In 1999, she was recognized with the Nova Scotia IKON Award as Female Athlete of the Year.

Beyond competition, San has helped develop athletes across the province as a Nova Scotia WKF Team Coach since 2005 (with a brief 5-year hiatus).

Her experience, leadership, and dedication to the art continue to make a lasting impact on students at Halifax Ryuseikan Karate.
