Ok, I think it's finally time I did this. I'm trying to raise funds so we can get off the street and practice our martial arts inside an actual building. I can't work anymore due to my accident, and I can't do this alone. I won't lie. If you can donate, share and ask others to help me out, i would owe you my eternal thanks. Closed mouths don't get fed. And, i need to be able to feed my students in a better setting than out in the elements. Thank you all for anything you do to help me get this out or even donate. I am ashamed that I'm even doing this, but my students deserve better. gofund.me/b838f9f4
Note: this is a training video, not an instructional one.
The Hung Sing Choy Lee Fut system (original name: Hung Sing Fut Gar) is a Chinese martial art for traditional kung fu combat training. This is not one of your run of the mill schools of kung fu. Our system has been tried and test since it’s inception in 1851, all the way down to current times. In the old days, our system was used on the battle field in life and death combat during the many “revolutions” that took place in China between 1851-1949.
Our elders have fought Western boxers, Muay Thai, rival kung fu factions, bandits, rogue government soldiers, defended their country against the invading Japanese, and even aided in the overthrowing of the Qing Dynasty in 1911. Today, we are continuing our combative path by entering Sanda/Sanshou competitions and the like. However, it is not our goal to become sport fighters. It is our goal to always maintain the efficiency and longevity of our style, lineage, and integrity.
Titles, money, fame are only for those actively searching for that. WE, are just your average people who want to know how to effectively use kung fu as it was intended, protection of ourselves, our friends and our family. Note: we are never trying to impress anyone or looking for others approval in what we do. What we do is for US, By Us. Still, we do appreciate the kind words you may have for us and our training. Train hard, fight hard. Great Victory is IN THE HOUSE.

[@emptyemptiness8372]

Now these are the boxers I like to learn about, I can appreciate mma but it wasn't a sport for these guys and they didn't earn millions for a fight....they earned respect, which is priceless.

[@hungsingkwoonusa650]

yes sir

[@salvadordeadly723]

Tam Sam had been defeating so many Masters that a man began following him and documented many of Tam Sam's fights , he was working on a book 100 undefeated fights of Tam Sam but unfortunately died before he had finished his book.

[@hungsingkwoonusa650]

that would have been a great book indeed.

[@salvadordeadly723]

@hungsingkwoonusa650 I inherited Sifu Dave Laceys personal file from Sifu George Michelson and it used to contain around 6 of the fight documentations, George must still have them, I remember reading of the fight between Tam Sam and Iron Lohan and Tam Sam's techniques that defeated him, but then Iron Lohan challenged him to a pole fight which ended in a draw so Tam Sam unhappy created a Buk sing Pole form.

Very nice!

[@mranderson380]

That would make an sick Hong Kong action movie back in the 80's lol. There is an movie based on Cheug Hang's life here on youtube but it's not historically accurate

[@hungsingkwoonusa650]

i totally agree with that

[@BrokenToothEnt]

Tam Fei Pang was avtually approached by film producers once about possibly doing a movie about Tam Sam and he declined the offer. Didn't want the legacy tarnished by being over exagerated or understated.

[@hungsingkwoonusa650]

@@BrokenToothEnt someone should try that now while keeping all the respect and honor in tact.

[@dteun]

Sifu lacey was a beast in buk sing rest in peace

[@hungsingkwoonusa650]
