So yesterday I took my nephew to his Wing Chun class, a type of Kung Fu, at Leung Martial Arts in downtown Eugene. The head instructor David Leung is a second generation student of the great Ip Man, one of the greatest Kung Fu legends of all time and teacher to the martial artist and actor Bruce Lee. Like his teacher and fellow student David Leung is a true master and has been inducted in to the martial arts hall of fame. Before the class Sifu Leung came over and shook hands with me. He was an old Chinese man that looked like a stiff wind could break him in half, but I was wise enough to now he could probably break me with one hand. After awhile of watching the class he offered for me to join in. I was shown some of the basic movements and it was an honor and privilege to be instructed and critiqued by a legend like Sifu Leung. I'm totally jealous of my nephew and am so going to attend the gym once I get a job and have a steady flow of income :)
