    I haven't met the man, but I've heard excellent things. He is one of the few cma teachers who has produced students that have had some ring success.

    David Chin

    I did a cover story on David Chin in our Jul/Aug 06 issue - Keeping Secrets: Grandmaster David Chin's Legacy of Hop Gar Rebels and Guang Ping Tai Chi Revolutionaries.

    I saw David and his #1 student Chris Heintzman at the Eagle Cup last weekend. We went out to lunch earlier in the week. It was great to see them as always. Chris introduced me to my current fav beer a few years ago. You can't be a better buddy than that.

    David Chin has come to the Hall of Fame tournaments for a number of years. His students are very able fighters and his guang ping taijiquan is one of the best I have ever seen. He is also a very personable gentleman and overall seems like a great guy to learn from.

    I took a few seminars from him at this past year's Taiji Legacy. He is one of the most phenomenal masters I have been fortunate enough to train with.
