Hong Kong & Ip Man Tong

Our club has the pleasure of visiting Hong Kong on a regular basis to train at Grandmaster Ip Chun's headquarters in Kowloon. In November 2002 we had the honour and privilege of taking part in the opening ceremony of the Ip Man Tong (museum) in Foshan, China. In 2004, Grandmaster Ip Chun invited us to join him for his 80th birthday celebrations in Hong Kong!

Below are photos of some of the exciting times that we have experienced during various training trips to Hong Kong and China. Both the August 2007 trip and October 2007 trip photos coming soon!
