    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.

    And you practice Wing Chun. Now, all you need is to like salsa.

    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.

    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:
