Mr Marinoble's Instructors



SIFU Eddie Chong - Chinese Kung Fu
Sifu Eddie Chong is recognized worldwide by martial artists as a prominent practitioner and instructor of Fushan Kung Fu. Sifu Eddie began his training of Wing Chun in 1968, leading him to a journey that made him devote over 30 years of his life to Kung Fu. His Wing Chun lineage in the Yip Man system can be traced to Leung Sheung, Yip Man's first and one of his most prized student.

To further his understanding of the concepts of Kung Fu, Sifu Chong traveled to Fushan (Canton, Mainland China).

Being there, he was accepted as last disciple and subsequently heir by Grandmaster Pan Nam, a direct descendant of Shaolin Kung Fu. During subsequent visits to Fushan, Sifu Chong was introduced to the Bak Mei (White Eyebrow) style of Kung Fu, which enhanced even more his understanding of the fighting principles that characterize realistic self-defense.
