Para los que tomaron el seminario de la forma Ng Lung Choy, ese semianrio sera el seguimiento en la progresion de enseñanza, La forma se usara como una plataforma para ilustrar conceptos y aplicaciones de kung fu tradicional.

Hello Mr. bugGS,
I have never referred to myself as Master. My students, many of whom are teachers themselves choose to confer that title on me out of their own prerogative, and assesment of what I teach. While they honor me by doing that, it is not a title that I encourage nor that I believe I deserve, specially in the true, original martial sense of the term.
Nowadays, masters are a dime a dozen, many after very little time or effort, some only due to their heritage or race, others because they trained with a a famous master or say they did. Some because they were the first, or are the oldest but the majority having little mastery of their art or discipline and less of themselves, with poor character and low integrity and yet a false belief that they have in fact reached that ideal.
One cannot be promoted to Master, and Master is not a title bestowed on you like Engineer, Doctor, or PhD. Master is an ideal, a level to strive for, a height that few ever reach. No, I am no Master, but I strive to better myself, to grow in my understanding and to never stop working hard so that someday walk in their footsteps.
I thank my students for their respect and appreciation of what I share with them. Most of them have more of what it takes to be a Master than i ever did and many of whom will certainly reach a high level. For those that question why anyone would refer to me as a master... it is what I teach as a whole, how I teach, how I conduct myself, the care I show for those that give me the privilige of working with them, the fact that I do my best for them, that their advancement and growth is my highest priority, even over my own. In this way, I follow the example and walk in the footsteps of the Masters.
Mario.
