Si-Fu Tom teaches online and is available in person at his new
location in Courtenay, BC. Si-Fu Tom (道睿, Dao Yui) is a 6th
generation disciple of Grand Master Ng Siu Chung and has been
practicing Kung Fu for over 40 years and leading

Our primary style is Tibetan White Crane (Pak Hok Pai) which we
practice together with Lee Gar (Frank Lee's Kung Fu), Hung Gar and few other
sets from the Sil-Lum styles.
These additional styles complement our Tibetan White Crane style and teach the student other aspects of
traditional Chinese martial arts.
