hello Tailik,

i have tried Chinese search engines, but did not find much. i tried Jau Lung plus Ching Wa in Chinese characters, but nothing.

one text mentions some Ching Wa (in simplified Chinese 程华) in relation to martial arts:

this part:

武术团体
　　清代，广州已有武馆出现，民国时期，武馆有所发展，武馆开设的目的多种多样，武术活动遍及各阶层、各行业。至建国前夕，广州武馆约有二三百家，均以团体会员加入广州市国术协会。
　　私人武馆较有名气的有林耀桂、张礼泉、邓龙、邓锦涛、廖恒、陈斗、李尧山、谭三、伦枝、利锦、崔章、潘荻、洪胜馆(初由李恩，后由黄啸侠负责)、林世荣、程华、孔玉峰、陈耀墀、陈培、方玉书、吴肇忠、陆智夫、邓芬、黄杏泉、黄昌、叶兆文、陈汉雄、周癹、谭坤山、刘湛、邱全、“全义堂”(武术教练区汉泉，醒狮教练刘伟雄)等馆。还有芳村林少立、汤锡，河南有帅祖，泮塘有颜耀庭，源溪有谢蛇，小桥有严三，西村有戚光、戚松，南岸澳口有蔡伯达，三元里有梁添，小北角有吴少泉等武馆。

but it just mentions his name (after Lam Saiwing, so the time is more or less same as Jau Lung's)

i have sent an e-mail to a WCH friend of mine, if he finds out something, he will let us know

PS: from the other forum - if you ever come to Prague, it will be an honor for me and my school - you will be my guest and i can be your guide. i can also organise a small seminar for you here, if you like - Hung Jau Yat Ga, right?

all the best

Thanks PM for all your time and effort. i talked to my Si Sook today and he believes that this ching wah 程华 is possibly the one we are looking for.

the text you found is very interesting. it is our intentions to discover and preserve as much information about our history before it is too late to gather accurate information.

i feel certain that sometime in the near future my students from Poland and i will visit prague. you are welcome to visit our school in poland or u.s. anytime. thanks for your courtesy.

best
Tai Lik
