I been studying martial arts since 1989. I started with tai chi & kick boxing, then changeing to Mantis Kung Fu after reading an article written by paul whitrod on Chow Gar Southern Praying Mantis Kung Fu system, in a martial arts magazine which I found very interesting.
I been studying the system for well over ten years now traveling to london on a regular basis for private lessons with Sifu Paul Whitrod, who I been lucky to know not just for his martial arts skills but also his veiws on life in general.
I have been lucky enough to travel to hong kong on a couple of occasions first time was in 2001 with Master Whitrod & a couple of students to visit the late grandmaster yip shui, we witnessed him demonstating technniques which were amazing as he was 89 years of ageat the time.
My second time was in 2010 january when one of my students and I travel to hong kong and trained at master Li Tin Loi school, he was a modest person has he said to call him senior teacher has paul my master,unfortunately we where there a week and the training was intense and tiring but good.
I started teaching the art with master Paul's support in 1998 my classes are proving very successful.
Pete Orum has also been working in the security industry for many years and given him good good insight to teaching in a realistic and practial manner which Master Whitrod always express.
