I'm going to Atlanta, GA on Thursday morning, Feb. 9th on Wing Chun business. I'm only staying until Friday afternoon.
I can be reached at sifupr@wingchunkwoon.com if anyone there would like to hang out.

Hey Dave,

Did you know Rocky Balboa is in Philly? If you could visit with him he may be able to teach you some WC, as I've seen him do some in the movies (in Rocky III he does a somewhat similar move as Tan Da, in the last fight against MR. T), lol.

I went to Atlanta last week to be part of a documentary on non-Asian martial art Masters.
The title is: The Fight Beyond the Fight: Quest for martial redemption
The trailer will be shown at: The Museum of the Moving Image in NYC Feb. 19, 2006

Hi James,

Rocky is an old student of mine. I am the one who taught him to block with his face :D I tell my wife that both Rocky and the Karate Kid are my heroes. But, I would not want to learn a method of fighting that resulted in me having more damage then the person I "beat" LOL
