I am deeply honored and humbled. Thank you, Sifu and congratulations to George & David. And a shout out to the first of us, Master Kadel- The Mighty Lao Yang!
In our school's lineage, a student is eligible to be promoted to Disciple after five years, Sifu (Shrfu) or teacher-level after ten years, and Master after approximately 30 years.
