Today
our association and many of Grandmaster Lee Koon Hung's students
work very hard to teach and pass on Choy Lay Fut Kung Fu the
way it was taught to us by Grandmaster, his straightfoward philosophy
of hard work and focus continues to inspire us all.
Even
in his last days before his untimely passing due to heart problems,
he would make us video tape our Kung Fu and he would write down
what we needed to fix... And when he could not keep his eyes
open... He made us audio record our classes...
We
will never forget this great man! |
