I know of a few WC Sifus on the island. I'll post the info as soon as I get it. We also have two TWC guys in PR. One is Sifu Freddie Gonzales in Fajardo 787-505-6969 and one is in Humacao. btw. I'll be going to Fajardo this summer to do a seminar. I'll post the date later.

WOW! :)

Great to know a fellow salsa lover!

I love salsa (Dura) enough to have more than 3000 cds/vinyls and to be living in Cali. This city is known as the world salsa capital.:)

What is missing here is Wing Chun schools. :(

I had to make another youtube channel for WC since I wanted to use this one http://www.youtube.com/user/sifupr for my music. I also have a large collection of Salsa. Old and New. ¿Eres Colombiano? I always thought PR was the Salsa capital. ;)

The Puertorican salsa orchestras are second to none, however have a look here:

I used to race Pista.
My best events were the Madison:

and the Match Sprint:

Some friends from Cali trained me. Cali has some of the best cyclistas in the world.

The riders are strong from training on the hills and mountains of Cali. I would love to go there to ride.

Thanks for the clips. Well, it seems suprisingly that there are quite a bit stuff that you will like in Cali. The salsa, the mountain bike rides and probably a little bit of the following: :D

Well, if you make it here then you will at least know that you will have a lot of soft places to put your head down, after a long day of bike riding in the mountains. ;):D

This is the city of Cali, in Colombia. This is a tropical city that is known as the world salsa capital. It is also blessed by some, if not, the most beautiful and sensual women on planet earth. Keep in mind that I am saying this while having lived in another babe paradise known as Rio de Janeiro for 5 years.

The best part of the whole thing is that they are very friendly and approachable.:)

You know, I was going to edit this and keep the topic on Wing Chun. But, then I figured you guys would think bad things about me and use various names to reference me with so in the interest of mutual interest I'll not make any changes.

However, if you want to post more vids of beautiful women, please create a seperate thread and put all of your pics, vids and other links there. That way we can have a single point of reference.

Oh, on the other hand, I may move to Rio in the near future. Unfortunately, not till my girls grow up to adulthood which means I will be too old to enjoy myself. Although, maybe I can find an attractive nurse to take care of me. ;)

On the other hand, with my luck she'll probably look more like Phil in a dress :(

Sorry Sihing73, I continued off topic because I believe that the thread starter's question was answered pretty well, earlier on. However, I thank you for not deleting this thread.

The video was of women in Cali, Colombia. However, don't worry about your age when you move to Rio as that city is one of the few places on earth where one can be forever young.;)

Also, let me know if you decide to move or travel there, as I can give you some advice, and because I may be going back to live there again myself, in the not so distant future.:)

Phil,

I know you in person so I know just how hard it is for you to get near beautiful women :p

At least this way you can see what you're missing in real life.............oh tell Bruce I said hi :D

I miss the place , I was there last year with my family . My wife won a prize of a week long holiday at a Four Seasons resort in Nevis W.I. Our plane to the island was canceled for a day so we stayed in San Juan overnight. Bad luck for some, good times for me :D
