Two days ago on November 25, 2024, Grandmaster Keith R. Kernspecht, the pioneer of Wing Tsun kungfu in Europe passed away at the age of 79. To those who didn’t know him, one would assume that the death of ”a man in his seventies” meant he had spent his final years inactive and sedentary, but this was certainly not the case…...

Among my friends there is one in particular that I think of when I hear the word "Warrior." My friend "M" (I use only an initial - out of respect for his privacy) is friendly and good-natured, but carries himself with an undeniable sense of confidence. Upon meeting him, you would agree that he seems both humble and comfortable with himself....

Is there virtue in being competent, formidable, and dangerous? Coming from a life spent in the martial arts, fi****ms, defensive tactics and as a military veteran, subconsciously I've always thought so. I must admit though, at times I wondered if this was something that only others with a background similar to mine could appreciate. That being said, though I've spent my life developing these skills, I never stopped to consider…...

I was recently listening to a presentation from a gentleman by the name of Dave Canterbury, during which he uttered a phrase that inspired this blog post. Mr. Canterbury is an interesting and practical individual whom you may know from the first two seasons of the Discovery Channel series Dual Survival. A US military veteran, he is also one of the most knowledgeable people in the country when it comes to survival, preparedness and bushcraft....

The first book on Wing Chun Kung Fu in the English language, co-authored by Sifu Greco Wong.(Published in 1969 by Paul H. Crompton, Ltd.) An important aspect of any culture, and the martial arts in particular, is that of respect. Respect for others, for their property, for their right to their own opinions, and also respect for oneself. It has really surprised me how over the last 10 years, …...

In the two disciplines that I teach, martial arts and fi****ms, I've encountered both good and bad teachers over the years. When I myself became a young teacher many years ago, I tried to emulate those teachers that I had met who consistently produced skilled practitioners under their tutelage. Aim small, miss small. Students will only achieve what you expect of them....
