嚴少強師傅 - 搏擊高手  最佳教練

大學研究院講究「學無先後，達者為師」，「實踐是檢驗真理的標準」。本人有幸師從匯統中國拳學會嚴少強師傅，每次上課都有「拳學研究」的體驗，實在深感榮幸！

 嚴少強師傅年紀輕輕，外型不像一般人心目中道貌岸然的大師，而比較接近體育學院的教練。實際上他的「武齡」已近二十年，先後修習跆拳、詠春、白眉、摔跤、意拳，已融匯貫通自成一家，公開賽戰績輝煌，拳館內外講手經驗豐富；拳腳對拆狠準穩快勁，摔跤快如閃電先鎖後摔技術出眾。雖然俗語云：「文無第一，武無第二」，但本人絕對同意嚴師傅是香港年輕一代少有的搏擊高手！他更在嶺南大學教授中國摔跤，又在中文大學專業進修學院以人體架構與力學為題主講及示範詠春拳。試問現時香港有多少人依然能精益求精、全心投入，每週七天、每天八小時不間斷地苦練武術呢？所謂「千日修以返初心，萬日練以達極致」，實在是至理名言。

此外，正如館內眾多師兄師姊所力讚，嚴師傅更具備一位好教練的三項必備條件：1.武功高強; 2.樂意授徒; 3.活動教學。嚴師傅一心練武，上課又肯以平生所學所悟拳理慷慨相授，將自己的心得圖文並茂、不怕辛勞親身示範與我們分享。難怪他曾獲得詠春拳學最佳教練獎。

 

嚴師傅曾解說匯統之意，就是武學不應有門派之分，每門功夫都各有長處，應集各家之精華，方能使武學精益求精。本人衷心祝願師傅教學相長，武功更上一層樓；桃李滿門，將中國拳學的運動科學與功夫藝術薪火相傳！

Sifu Yim Siu-Keung – Master of Free Fighting, Best Coach of Kungfu

Research institute of university stresses that "Learn from the achievers, regardless of seniority," and "Practice is the only standard test of truth." I am honoured to be under the tutelage of Sifu Yim Siu-Keung, Chief Coach of the Huitong Martial Arts, and having authentic experience and research about the secret and truth of Chinese Kungfu!

As a youngster, of course Sifu Yim does not look like a traditional grand master of Chinese Kungfu. But rather, he resembles a professional coach of a Sports Academy. In fact, he has a long history of learning various forms of martials arts that include Taekwondo, Wing Chun, Bai Mei (White-browed), Wrestling, Yiquan, for nearly two decades.

As a diligent practitioner and a thinker, Sifu Yim has not only mastered the essence of various elements of Kungfu, but also melt them into his own system of free fighting, and founded the Huitong Martial Arts. His high level of achievement is clearly shown in his multiple championships in competitions, as well as pretty much experience of combat outside the gym with learners of other schools of different forms of martial arts.

Although the Chinese saying goes: "No single scholar is called the top one, no kungfu practitioner considered the second," I reasonably believe that Master Yim is obviously an expert of free fighting among the younger generation in Hong Kong.

During free fighting, you can experience how fast, skilful, powerful, yet steady his punching and kicking can go! His wrestling skills are also superb, fast as lightning. In addition, he always demonstrates that he has successfully locked you up before throwing and ground-holding using skilful leverage movements!

He has been coaching Chinese Wrestling at the Hong Kong Lingnan University, and also invited as a guest speaker and demonstrator of Wing Chun Kungfu by the Chinese University of Hong Kong (School of Continuing and Professional Education) to the theme of the structure of human body and mechanics.

Already a famed master in Hong Kong, yet he is still diligently practising kungfu skills eight hours a day and seven days a week! Many people want or even claim to be a Kungfu master. But you may ask yourself, "Are you willing to do the same thing for twenty years or even for whole life?" No pain, no gain. Truly as the Japanese martial arts motto remarks, " Practise a thousand days in order to return to a pure heart, training of ten thousand days to achieve the optimal."

Moreover, as many senior students of Huitong Martial Arts advocated before me, Sifu Yim has all 3 necessary criteria of an excellent coach master: 1. High level of martial arts skills; 2. A willing heart to share with apprentices; 3. Activity approach of teaching and learning.

A dedicated kungfu master, Sifu Yim uses a lot of charts and diagram, supplemented with video and written explanations, and even demonstrate the skills repeatedly so every learner can understand what he says. No wonder he has been awarded The Best Wing Chun Coach!

Sifu Yim once explained the meaning of "Huitong"(匯統). One should not be bound by the division of different martial arts schools. There are strengths in each school. Therefore, one should learn the essence and elements from various schools and form your own system, and then you can upgrade your level of competency in the path of kungfu training.

With a grateful mind, I wish Sifu Yim achieve a higher level in the process of pure heart teaching and learning kungfu; and the true theories and practice of Sports Science and Martial Arts of Chinese Kungfu can be spread through his more and more diligent student-learners!
