International Shaolin Wing Chun Instructor's Training happened in Bogota, Colombia.
2018 - International Shaolin Wing Chun Instructor's Training happened in Bogota, Columbia.
Once again, Sifu Johnatan Martinez played host to our international event. Our SWC school in Bogota is famous for its instructors and fighters.
Sifu Johnatan is active in promoting MMA in his country. Many of his students - male and female, teens to adults - have done well competing nationally and internationally in MMA under his leadership. His next goal is to break into international Wushu competition, specifically in the area of San Da.
All of his efforts are focused on developing and testing our Shaolin Wing Chun skill. Not only does have very good fighters (tigers) he also leads a great group certified instructors (dragons). One of our main areas of focus on this trip was to train international instructors.
On this trip, I was joined by Sifu Michael Dumas from Kentucky (a disciple of Master John Lambert) and Facundo Colman from Argentina. We covered the system from SNT to BJ, the MYJ and weapons sparring.
Many of the local and national media were present to interview us. It was a great success and we still found time on site-seeing around Bogota. I want to say thank you to Sifu Johnatan and his leaders like Dayana Parada and Karol Ximena Naranjo Lopez for such a great experience, they were wonderful hosts.
We are working on a big projects for Wing Chun, still a bit of a secret - and everyone who knows is very excited.
