His students used to work for him at his restaurant and train in the basement after it closed.

I like the way he finished off with a little Sil Lum Tao.

He has some nice flowing movments, like water.

Also showing alot of sensitivity and creativity.

Thanks for sharing, well worth watching over and over again...

I'm a student of Henry Leung, The person on the dummy is my sihing or senior kung fu brother. A few people in my lineage may have this footage,but I'm the only one who has released it to the public. I have some other video as well but I don't think I will ever release it to the public.

Buddha hand Fut Sao Wing Chun makes sense to me as an older style of martial arts; as strength comes from softness; as the soft internal styles were the dominate styles before the hard external systems took over.
