Merry Christmas!!!!  We had a great Pot-luck Christmas Dinner Party at the gym among family and friends!  Not only did everyone enjoy the huge dinner feast, but many gifts were also being given out (some missed out on this!) as part of our fun festive night!!!  

Special thanks to Sifu Carson Lau for hosting the party and the gifts, and Si-hing Richard Ngai for organizing and coordinating the party.  Thanks to all of our members and guest for making this years gathering such a success!

This picture was sent to Sifu Lau, along with a birthday gift from Sifu Yan Yiu Wing (4th level technician) in Hong Kong. Sifu Yan Yiu Wing is one of Sifu Lau’s previous pupils and this picture depicts Sifu Lau’s “To Dai” ( student ), “To Suen” (grandson students) and “To-Tsang Suen” (Great grandson students) — Four generations of students, descendant from Sifu Lau.

In Chinese tradition, a family of 4 generations is a real blessing and Sifu Lau feels extremely blessed and proud of his Wing Tsun family.
