Me in 2025...and 2019. It's been quite the healing journey.

Check out my new article in Wing Chun Illustrated (Issue 85) where I reflect on how Wing Chun helped me turn a major life obstacle into an opportunity for profound growth.

Kung fu: the practice of turning obstacles into opportunities. Cancer was one hell of an obstacle. And I prevailed. Check out my new article in Issue 85 of Wing Chun Illustrated Magazine where I reflect on my healing journey.

Triangles on triangles. 5,000 years later, architects and engineers still can't figure out how the pyramids of Giza were built. What we do know is that they've stood the test of time largely due to their triangular structure.

In Wing Chun, there's a concept called Yup Ying, which means "getting into the shape" of the art.Wing Chun stances, footwork, leg and hand techniques form a series of interconnected triangles that support, wedge, ramp, screw, pin, flip, and divert. The reason for this is simple: The strength and efficiency of the triangle remain undisputed.

Can you see it? This is what hard training looks like. Loud groans. Aching muscles. Falling to the floor at the end. And so much sweat it leaves an imprint.

Today officially marks 10 years since the first training session of Wing Chun MD. A week before, I hosted an info session looking to recruit a few students to get started. 5 people showed up for that, and 5 people joined! And so it began.

We were training out of the activity room of a local gym at that time. We had one large suitcase of equipment that we rolled out from a closet. I had a plan to save up and move into a private space within 5 years. In two years, we were able to move into our first kwoon (training home). 3 years after that, we officially moved into our current home in Silver Spring, MD.

Several hundreds have trained at Wing Chun MD. A small few have stayed around to become long-term students. Hundreds more in the martial arts community have attended sparring sessions and live training events that we've hosted over the years. It's been quite the journey so far. And in many ways, we are just getting started.

Thank you to all who have contributed to the longevity of Wing Chun MD.
