Description
Rick Wong of the Hong Luck Kung Fu Club speaks to tour participants about its history. Established in 1961, Hong Luck Kung Fu is one of Canada’s first schools to teach Chinese Kung Fu to people of non-Chinese descent.
Founder, Master Paul Chan, arrived in Toronto in the early 1950s, having trained from the age of 11 in China. He is remembered as the Father of Canadian Kung Fu.
