    Passing of Master Chiu Leun

    It is with great sadness of heart that I report the death of my Sifu Chiu Leun. He passed away on Sunday Jan 15th at 3:45PM of heart complications. A truly great master of the Praying Mantis style, he will be sorely missed. He leaves behind 4 children, many students and a legacy of the Seven Star Praying Mantis style.

    Another teacher who was the foundation of NYC's kung fu community when I was coming up

    A friend and relative (cousin of my Si-MO) of my teacher

    A great master with both skill and knowledge

    I am very sorry... will there be funeral arrangements so we can pay our respects?

    Condolensces Sifu Albright; he'll definitely be missed.
    What would happen if a year-old baby fell from a fourth-floor window onto the head of a burly truck driver, standing on the sidewalk?
    It's practically certain that the truckman would be knocked unconscious. He might die of brain concussion or a broken neck.
    Even an innocent little baby can become a dangerous missile WHEN ITS BODY-WEIGHT IS SET INTO FAST MOTION.
