This is a follow up to the article Sifu McInnes Retires from Coaching Pro Fighters.

My name is Si Hing Charlie Tamati. I am Chief Instructor for the Auckland Region for Sir Gee Dorr Kung Fu, New Zealand , trained by Sifu McInnes.

At present I have a school in Fowlds Park, Mt Albert, Auckland. My school has now been running for 4 years now and I have slowly but surely built up a good student base. My aim is to build the school to large numbers as to carry on the style of Sir Gee Dorr for Sifu McInnes, as this is his aim to build schools in New Zealand where you can learn true traditional Shaolin Kempo Kung Fu.

I have now been practising Sir Gee Dorr for about 21 years and to this day I still have a great passion to teach the style to those who wish to learn. We cater for all ages from 6 years to ?? – as age is no barrier for martial arts; you just need the right attitude towards your training.

Returning from Thailand, in January this year,  where we trained with Sifu and celebrated his birthday and 26 years of Sir Gee Dorr in New Zealand, and 10 years of it in Thailand, the drive to build the schools here is now greater than ever as this is the wish of the Master.

I welcome anyone to come along to our Kwoon to train with us and check out my website for further details at  www.sirgedorr.co.nz or the site for Sifu McInnes at  www.issworldwide.com and click on martial arts.
