We are going for our Dream Project on finding the Chow Gar Kung Fu Origins
This year, I’ve embarked on a dream project to trace the Chow Gar Kung Fu origins, starting in Hong Kong, where modern practice thrives, and leading back to China, where the art was first born. Through this project, I aim to explore not just the history but the deeper philosophy, techniques, and cultural heritage that form the foundation of Chow Gar Tong Long Kung Fu.
As part of this journey, I’m applying for funding through an artist promotion with Artlist to help bring this vision to life. If successful, I’ll document the experience—meeting local masters, visiting historical training grounds, and uncovering long-lost stories that define the Chow Gar Kung Fu origins.
While I await the results of the funding application, I remain dedicated to this project and its mission to shed light on the roots of Chow Gar Tong Long. Regardless of the outcome, this journey to uncover the origins of this incredible martial art continues.
Stay tuned for updates and insights as this adventure unfolds!
