The Oz Connection
Our Lo Man Kam Wing Chun lineage, as represented by Bruce Cheng Martial Arts, will soon have its presence in Queensland, Australia. On behalf of our school, Sifu Arthur Batakin will open a branch in Gold Coast, Australia in the immediate future. Sifu Batakin is originally from Russia and had trained under Sifu Cheng for many years. He has finished our Instructor Class programme and fully qualified to teach Wing Chun Kuen. Sifu Batakin is proficient in the three non-armed Wing Chun Forms: Siu Lim Tao (小 念頭), Chum Kiu (尋橋) and Biu Jee (標指), the Wooden Dummy Forms (Mook Yan Jong, 木人樁), as well as the weapon forms: Long Pole (Lim Dim Book Guan, 六點半棍) and Butterfly Swords (Bat Chum Do, 八斬刀).
The Gold Coast branch will be opening in May this year, and Sifu Batakin can be contacted on 0420-975-075. We will post the latest update in our Classes page with further details on the time and venue of Sifu Batakin's class when they become available. We wish Sifu Batakin all the best and extend our full support for this exciting endeavour.
