Stories

A huge number of people across the world resolve to improve their health and fitness. For some this means losing weight, for others it’s gaining muscle, and for some people, it’s more about working on developing a healthy mindset. Transforming your physique, health, and lifestyle doesn’t happen overnight.

Andrea, 28

Andrea has made massive improvements to her health, appearance and confidence – all from changing her food and exercise habits. Here is her weight loss success story so far, and the pictures from start, 5 weeks, 15 weeks and 27 weeks. The balanced nutritional program and a workout routine was specially customized for Andrea’s fitness level. Cardiovascular training 30 min 4 times a week, and did her nutritional blog every day to stay on track with nutrition.

Nathaniel, 42

Nathaniel lost 49 pounds in 1.5 years after experiencing one of those “aha” moments. Our conversation, which is transcribed below, focuses on weight loss challenges and building a healthy lifestyle. “I think the idea underneath this is important, especially because so many people view working out consistently as “sacrificing your life.”

Chase, 32

Meet my friend Chase, who has one of the most incredible success stories I have EVER seen. After graduating college, Saint took a desk job as a computer programmer and watched as his weight slowly started to creep up…like every other average American. Over the past two years, he was able to slowly and steadily bring that down before having an incredible breakthrough that allowed him to transform drastically. Here’s how he did it.

start from today

Honoured to have inherited this 40+ year old teak HK Mook Yan Jong with one piece guava leg.

Wasn't properly maintained and needs a lot of work to remove the shellac, sealant, and other chemical layers on it that have yellowed and affected the wood drying out the surface layer causing some fraying in parts of the trunk and the tracks.
As well as filling and treating some of the small fissures in the trunk.

Will be restoring it to breathe new life into its new home becoming a beautiful piece once again.
Hope to make its original owner of those many decades proud as he looks down from above.

Step by step photos of the restoration work will be posted.

Spending the spring, summer, and fall working the Ving Tsun Gwun and making sure the group is proficient in the Lok Dim Boon Gwun form, concepts, mechanics, drills, and applications. 

We spent a good portion of last night exploring how the pole translates to strength and conditioning, and unified coordination that applies to empty hand applications.

Will share some vids and pics from our next sessions.

Real To Reel // Laap Sau Practical Application 

From the WSLVT Chi Sau Workshop this week as part of our Weekly GTA Wing Chun Meetup on Tuesday, June 18th 2024.

Throughout this evening we worked fundamental Lin Siu Dai Da actions through Chi Sau and then their practical applications.
Here we work Laap Sau to ward off and spread away the interfering action as well as employing Je Lik (borrowing force) to exploit aggression and momentum.

Feed your mind.
Fuel your fist.
