"There are hidden secrets within these martial arts forms that
only a few can learn. It takes years to master it. A "sifu" must know all the techniques by heart and know how
to take care of them too. Otherwise, he can't teach well. He must also know the philosophy of martial arts - It is built
with humility, self-descipline and determination. If not, of the art can be misused and might be deadly."
