Sad News about Lok Yiu Sifu

[The Mark]

We recieved word from our teacher this week that Lok Yiu Sifu has passed away. His memorial will be held Feb 26 & 27th. I'll share more details as I get them.

As you may know Lok Yiu was the 2nd student of Yip Man in Hong Kong. Leung Sheung was the first. They lived with Yip Man and were close training partners.

The loss of Lok Yiu is a loss of history and a vast body of Wing Chun knowledge and experience. He was there forging the path of modern Wing Chun, I hope we are up to carrying on.

My sympathies to his family, friends and students.
