Brian Phillips

I am a humble student learning the Ng Family Hung Gar system under Sifu Frank Bolte.
I hope to one day learn the entire system and hopefully open a kwoon here in the United States so as to pass it on to others.
I was born in 1972. At a young age I suffered from high fevers and convulsions for an unknown reason and was clinically dead for several minutes. Luckily I came to in the hospital and suffered no brain damage. From a very early age I had an active interest in the martial arts and read every book I could get my hands on about the subject, even taking some Hapkido and Tae Kwon Do classes as well as some Aikido later on. While I respect and admire those arts I never felt quite like they were what I was looking for. Later on when I got older I started investigating Chinese martial arts. Unfortunately there were no teachers near me of any chinese martial arts. My journey began with reading books about Xing Yi Chuan, Bagua and Tai Chi Chuan as well as getting a video on Da Mo Yi Jin Jing. I learned The Yi Jin Jing from this video and practice it every day for around 5 years now. In addition I practice Iron Palm which I learned from a book I purchased from Wing Lam with some training bags. I have practiced this also for around 5 years. Luckily I by chance encountered My Sifu Frank Bolte online and after talking to him for a while he agreed to teach me Hung Gar Kuen. It is one of the best things to happen to me in life.
