March 29th our association will celebrate my retirement from formally teaching Jow Ga Kung Fu. I'm very excited about my next chapter, maybe origami :-)
I probably won't get to see many of my friends in the martial arts society very much, so I would like to thank you all for your support for so many years. This is a picture of my & instructors who will represent our association & continue spreading Jow Ga Kung Fu. I hope I've done my part to help spread Jow Ga! We have branches in Colorado, Georgia, Seattle, Texas, Poland and Maryland and have many more to spread. My best regards
Derek Johnson :D

I was fortunate to study under two lineages for many years, so I hope to honor my two Sifus Kong Yu Choi (10 yrs), Dean Chin (1978-1985) and of course both my Sigung's Chan Man Cheung (Kai Ye 契爺 ), and Hung Tai Wai 師公 also known as David Hung. Friends from across the state and Jow Ga overseas members will attend our full day ceremony when we promote 7 more Sifus & then i close my hands. My best :D
