Inducted into the Martial Arts History Museum in 2002, he continues to be the biggest advocate of Kung Fu today. What are your thoughts of Sifu Douglas Wong?
I was completely blown away by the professionalism of this piece. Kudos to all! I now know much more about Douglas Wong and the seminal role he played in the advancement of Kung Fu in our modern society and films. I can only wish I had been in California when I was young to learn from him and others of his kind. Fascinating! This is real Martial Arts History.
Thank you Thomas, I appreciate that.
I have one of his books. Lots of knowledge in there. Exellent video. Godbless this gentleman !
I trained under Sifu Wong back in the 80's!...Major part of my martial arts life since I started in 1975 to the present!....Thnk u Sifu..🙏..D.
So much fun going down memory lane with this video. Best teacher ever!
Miss those days. All the best with your future Doug.
Huge fan of Douglas and Carrie Wong, this was great
Master Wong is living breathing history. Thanks for sharing!
Many Thanks! What a trip down memory lane!
This is excellent!!! " Old School"!! " True School"! 🙏☯️💯
Great man, much respect for Sifu Wong.
Wow! this was great! the photos by themselves are amazing!
Didn't Doug Wong have a small studio on Van Nuys Blvd, Van Nuys just below Vanowen St back in the late 70's? I had a friend that went there. It was small and upstairs at that time.
Yes that was our second studio after leaving the Panorama City studio on Van Nuys and Roscoe. We then move to the studio on Parthenia Street for 8 years and then moved into the 3000 sq. ft. studio on Roscoe Blvd known as the Body Factory. It was a studio put together with my student Steven Lambert where we taught action acting to many celebrities.
Awesome interview!
YES!!! Jimmy Woo,the grandmaster of kung-fu San soo
You messed with the Wong Guy
Awesome.
Sifu!!....the Dogtown (skateboarding)of kung fu.
Do a video on Brendan Lai please
I don't know how accurate this is, but I'm surprised that Bruce Lee himself didn't train under this gentleman?
You have Dan InSanto there, why not Bruce Lee?
At the time, Sifu Ark Y. Wong, Sifu Doug Wong's teacher, was the primary teacher of Kung Fu when Bruce Lee was alive. I have no doubt that Bruce either conversed or worked out with Sifu Ark Y. Wong.
His senior students workout at our Panorama City Studio weekly (1973). Bruce was filming Enter the Dragon at the time and was going to visit our studio when he return to the States. Daniel Lee had invited Bruce to come down to met everyone but he died before he could make the trip. I have met Bruce a few time before he took off to Hong Kong and known Danny Inosanto, Jerry Poteet, Ted Wong ang and many others for years.
Missing was his time with Master Shere Lew
is his brother harry wong as well
Harry Wong is a family friend and not my blood brother. My two brothers are Curtis F. Wong the publisher of Inside Kung Fu Magazine and Frank Wong. I am the oldest in the family.
As usual nothing but words old moves im sorry not impressed I know more of that style then most. It was a disappointment
