My journey into the martial arts of Malaysia begins by meeting Master Ong Ming Thong, and learning about one of the most widespread Kung Fu styles in the region, Sekkosam Shaolin. You can learn more about Master Ong's efforts to preserve the martial arts of Penang by visiting his channel @TCMA Confederation

I continue my journey into the martial arts of Malaysia by exploring the Kung Fu styles of the Hakka people, looking at two different styles which both share the name Chu Gar. I also visit the Chin Woo Athletic Association to meet up with some fellow Mantis Fist practitioners.

Loved the heavy training equipment
Similar bags were a vital part of Thai Keik training
