Biography of Sifu Doug Clark
In this picture you can see Sifu Doug Clark next to his Sifu and Master namely Anthony Kan. Sifu Doug Clark is fourth from the left as you look at the picture next to Sifu Anthony Kan. This photograph was shot in 2006. Sifu Doug Clark started training in Martial Arts at the age of 14 years old, prior to this he was introduced to Wrestling from the age of eight years old at his local club and enjoyed the grappling work of Western Catch as Catch Can Wrestling. He competed at a junior level.
As of writing this website he is 48 years of age and has been actively training all of that time. Originally training in the Japanese Systems of Juko Ryu Ju Jitsu, Tomiki Aikido and Shotokan Karate, he also studied for a limited time period Lau Gar Kung Fu. When he was at College he did some Wado Ryu Karate and Full Contact Karate Kick Boxing.
He went on to learn Wing Chun Kung Fu via the Ip Chun Lineage and also Wing Tsun via the Leung Ting Lineage. Doug has the highest respect for all lineages of Wing Chun including WT or Wing Tsun. He gained a great deal from his former teachers and found merit in the WC and WT Systems and still has an interest in them. In total this tuition lasted 15 years. All of his previous teachers are excellent in what they do and Sifu Doug Clark gives credit to them all for guiding him on his Martial Path.
However, in late 1993 Sifu Doug Clark was introduced to and became a student of Sifu Anthony Kan and has remained a direct line student ever since.
In 2002 Sifu Doug Clark after serious examination and testing received a certificate signed solely by Sifu Anthony Kan to recognise him as a Technician of the Wong Shun Leung Lineage Ving Tsun Kung Fu System as taught by Sifu Anthony Kan.
Sifu Doug Clark is very proud to have received this certificate after many years of dedicated training. Since gaining this certificate he has continued to train and learn from Sifu Anthony Kan at every available opportunity, recognising that Martial Arts are a life long path of progression.
His Sifu in 2005 commenced Internal Martial Arts training (Nei Jia Quan) in China under the auspices of Professor Fang Ning the 5th Generation Grandmaster of Wudang Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan. He has also been researching other lineages of Wing Chun too. Sifu Doug Clark has commenced training in Tai Chi Chaun with Sifu Anthony Kan plus learning concepts from Gu Lo Wing Chun, Fatshan Wing Chun and other Nei Jai Quan including Bag Gua Zhan, Xing Yi and Yi Quan.
Sifu Doug Clark finds that the Tai Chi Chuan that he is learning from Sifu Kan compliments his Ving Tsun as well as benefitting his health. Sifu Doug Clark also trains in Chi Gung (Qi Gong) especially Ba Dua Jin and finds this very good as well.
