SIFU FRANCIS FONG SEMINAR
Sifu Francis Fong has over 30 years experience in Wing Chun and is considered by many to be one of the finest Wing Chun instructors in the U.S.A. He began his study under Sifu Jiu Wan in Hong Kong back in 1965. Later, Sifu Francis decided to move to the United States and in 1973 he traveled to New York; relocating two years later to Atlanta, GA at which time he opened the Francis Fong Martial Arts Academy.

While working on the movie "Sharky's Machine" Sifu Francis met Guro Dan Inosanto who was also working on the movie. This led to Sifu Francis studying Jun Fan Gung Fu/Jeet Kune Do and the Filipino martial arts. Sifu Francis is the Georgia Representative for Guro Dan Inosanto with Full Instructor ranking in both Filipino martial arts and Jun Fan Gung Fu (JKD Concepts). Additionally, Sifu Francis is an instructor in Muay Thai and also the Southeastern representative for the Thai Boxing Association U.S.A. under the direction of Master "Chai" Sirisute.

Sifu Francis is a member of Defensive Tactics Instructor Association of the state of Georgia and is a certified Head Police Defensive Tactics Instructor, whom has trained police officers, S.W.A.T. teams, and "Fort Benning Rangers" in close quarters tactics. Due to his background and experience, the U.S. Army sought his help in updating of an Army training manual to include principles of Wing Chun, Muay Thai and Filipino Kali. Over the years, Sifu has trained many students worldwide, including training with and personally training several celebrities in the arts.
 
AJARN SURACHAI SIRISUTE SEMINAR
The Thai Boxing Association of the U.S.A. (TBA-USA), the oldest and largest Muay Thai organization in the United States, was founded in 1968 by Ajarn Surachai "Chai" Sirisute. (Ajarn is Thai for head instructor.) Ajarn Chai came to the United States with a vision to spread Muay Thai to throughout the world, and he is the first-ever Thai boxing instructor to teach Americans this art and he has worked tirelessly for more than 30 years to that end. We are indeed grateful to Ajarn Chai for his gift of the knowledge of Muay Thai.
