Wing Chun Illustrated Magazine Issue 5 (April 2012): Featuring Sifu Garry McKenzie

By Eric Lilleør

"Wing Chun Illustrated is one of the best martial arts publications I''ve had the pleasure of reading. The articles are interesting, informative and very well written with great full-colour photos to accompany them." -- Sifu Jef Sutherland Featured in the April 2012 Issue Garry McKenzie: Taking Away What Isn''t Useful Sifu Garry McKenzie may appear to be a classic fighter, but once he begins speaking, it becomes clear that he is also gentle, funny, insightful, and humble. His Wing Chun journey began in 1982 at age 17, ultimately leading him to learn Cantonese and travel to Hong Kong to train under Ip Ching. Twice invited to demonstrate at the Wing Chun World Conference and the opening of the Ip Man Tong in Foshan, he even delivered a speech in Cantonese. However, he views Wing Chun not as a way of life but as a tool for self-protection, protecting others, and conditioning his body.
