Henry was the third student in Silat Seni Gayong Ireland at Limerick. I remembered in January 2010, Henry has contact me to join our training at St. Enda’s Sport Complex. At that time, SSGI just started around 2 months. He came with enthusiasm to learn and to know about Silat Seni Gayong. He also informed me that he had learned Kung Fu for 7 years and still going on.
He was a very good student and very disciplined. He also likes to share an ideas and knowledge about martial arts especially about Kung Fu style with other students. I also able to know and got knowledge about Kung Fu from him.
After a year with SSGI, I was anxious to conduct the first stage grading for him. Unfortunately he was unable to participate in the grading because he in struggle further studies in academic. In the same time, he was busy in waiting for a new person in his life, his son. His wife was pregnant at the time.
