It is with great sorrow that I announce the passing of my yiquan sifu master Lau Hsing.
Lau sifu had over 30 years of experience in yiquan and was a student of Han Xing Yuen, Han Xing Qiao and Leung Zi Peng. His classmates included Sam Tam, Fong Ha, Ip Hei Hsing & Ian Fok. Sifu was one of the highest level experts of third generation yiquan teachers and dedicated the last several years of his life to teaching yiquan unselfishly to all who came to learn from him. He was a yiquan teacher's teacher who was saught out by teachers not only in NYC's Chinatown but also across the USA and in Hong Kong.
To those of you who came from near and far to study with him in New York I hope you will keep up your practice.
We will miss him.
