Visit from Philadelphia Branch

Wednesday, 28 May 2008

Recently Sifu Joe McSorley came to visit us with five of his students in order to further their skills. Joe had originally started his training in Philadelphia in 1972 with Master Mark, and continues to practice and teach. During the visit, the group worked hard to refine their skills, focusing primarily on feeling and timing exercises. Back in Philadelphia, Joe and his students train with greater emphasis on practical application of techniques, so it was a good chance to compare perspectives.

Regarding the practicality of this style, John, a student and instructor under Sifu McSorley stated: "There's alot of good fighters in Philly, so you can't fake it."

As always, it was an inspiration to see people that train hard and strive to uphold the integrity of this great tradition. We look forward to more visits and seminars with Joe and his students in the future.

	It was a pleasure meeting our family at the Minnesota branch and finally getting to meet and receive instruction from Gin Foon Mark Sifu. Everyone was very helpful--reunions like these ensure the future of Jook Lum as relationships are developed and a trading of ideas and skills strengthen us practitioners wherever we may be.

	Well said Phil. I must say that I was quite impressed by the dedication and cohesiveness of the whole group. My only regret is that we didn't have more time. I look forward to next reunion.

Hello from Las Vegas
What are you going to be 55 this year

Last time I saw you and Paula was back in 82 I think its great seeing all the progress and changes that have been made over the years. One thing I really miss is yours and Bing Louie's cooking nothing out west compares to that. When I come up this spring I'll stop in and attend a couple class's as soon as I can afford it I'd like to purchase the complete set of training manuals so hold onto
a set for me and I'll get them in early March (Tax$).
Say Hi to Paula for me and I'll see you in May.
Roger Palme
