Best wishes to Bob Vogtli (holding red gift bag) as he relocates to Shenzhen, China, to immerse himself in Chinese language.

Always mild mannered, Bob trained in both our external and internal martial arts classes, volunteered with various tournament duties, and was exceptionally good with our beginners. He will be missed. (Melrose, MA)

Many "Thank You's" to Phil Lam for this gracious gift of vintage broadsword, double straight swords, and butterfly knives.

Originally from Hong Kong, Phil trained in Wing Chun as a teenager, moved to the US, and was a member of the CWRI from 1981 -2000.
He built Wing Chun dummies from PVC pipe and is seen here teaching Wing Chun at our Harrison Avenue school. (Boston Chinatown circa mid 1990's).
