Hello all:

I just found and joined the forum - looks great!

Just a little about me:

My name is Jim, from New Rochelle, NY. I trained at Moy Yat's Ving Tsun kwoon in NYC from 1990 to 1994, during and just after my college years.

More recently I have been trying to get back to training again regularly but having been laid off (seems like forever) from my regular line of work, in the city, makes it tough - hoping things will turn around soon so I can get back to some great kung-fu!

Meanwhile, to keep up I train with a few Ving Tsun / martial art friends who live nearby and continue living the kung-fu life albeit remotely.

Looking forward to some interesting exchanges and info here on the forum and I hope to see some of my old kung-fu brothers here online!

Jim

Hi Savi,

New Rochelle is not too far from NYC (It's where Rob and Laura Petrie (**** Van Dyke Show) used to live.)

It's about 1 hour and 15 minutes by foot & train(s) from my house to Moy Yat's school. I used to make the trip up to 5 times a week when I was attending Iona College in New Rochelle.

I normally work in the city too - when working in the I.T. industry, which I hope to resume asap.

Thanks Cang.

Maybe if I hummed the intro?

Well to me that show is timeless - and it's on TV Land everyday. I just wish Laura still lived on Bonnie Meadow! :D
