My Martial Arts journey
- Kempo Karate
- 1992 brief time in Tai Chi
- 1994 JKD Concepts
- 1996 Wingchun
- 2005 after talking with my good friend Craig Coleman (ex full instructor of Tommy Carruthers) I joined him in London where I met Jesse Glover the founder of Non Classical Gung FU (NCGF) and a few of his students Ingolf Grabitz, Pierre Hartmann and Wolfgang Rain.
That experience changed my outlook forever!

what is fugung.com?
It's just a name for the site not the art.
If you hadn't already worked it out the name is simply gung fu reversed. I couldn't get gungfu.com so I bought fugung.com
