His passion for instructing is very visible in his high-energy classes. He also has black belt instructors and junior instructors who have trained under him for many years teaching and assisting classes.
Master Tong’s philosophy in teaching martial art is that students learn best when they are having fun and are enjoying the activities in class. Finding creative ways to teach techniques and self-defense concepts is his top priority. Although repetition is so important to improve technical skills, it can be done in many different ways. So the classes are never quite the same. Training 2 to 3 times per week will not become tedious and boring. Rather the students are excited each class in practicing the numerous drills designed to instill power, speed, and practicality.
