Nothing is so dangerous to the progress of the human mind than to assume that our views of science are ultimate, that there are no mysteries in nature, that our triumphs are complete and that there are no new worlds to conquer.

Humphry Davy

 

 

 

 

 








  

 

 

 

 

VIETCHIBONG is the art of the traditional Vietnamese  Stick, refined through the insights of modern research. It is one of the eight disciplines founded by Grand Master Phan Hoang

 

 

 

THE FORM OF DA GIANG STICK

The form DA GIANG STICK  (ĐÀ GIANG BỔNG) is one of the most important training forms in the Vietnamese Art of the Stick.

This form consists of eight independent exercises, all based on the same fundamental principle: the practitioner stands at the center of the moving stick, which symbolizes a world in constant evolution, balanced between positive and negative forces.

The name (or Thieu / lyric) given to each exercise expresses its spirit and serves as a guide for action, whether in attack or defense, in martial arts practice, or in the philosophy of everyday life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

    ĐÀ GIANG BỔNG  - Thiệu/ Lyrics

1-Thuận thiên lý / In accord with Heaven’s law.

2-Khai thông lộ / Cut a path where none is given.

3-Phá cường bạo / Break the tyrant.

4-Minh đại đạo / Hold the Great Way.

5-Phòng hậu nạn / Guard what comes.

6-Tảo thu phong / Strike like wind.

7-Tụ anh tài / Rally the brave and the capable

8-Tri thuận nghịch / Know the tide.

RONG NUOC, The Water Dragon.

According to an ancient myth, the Vietnamese people are descended from a dragon lord (Lac Long Quan) and an immortal mountain fairy (Au-Co). The dragon is symbolic of the emperor and the power of the nation. It could bring protection to the people and water for agriculture.

 

It could have five versions of dragon: the Iron Dragon, the Wood Dragon, the Water Dragon, the Fire Dragon, and the Earth Dragon.

MASAI MARA

ON THE ROAD with GM Phan Hoang

  MASAI MARA

The subject I want to talk today is about my travel in Masai Mara, Kenya.

In 1992, during two months I was in Rwanda for a university cooperation mission. At the end of February my wife flew from Canada to join me in Butare and then we went to Kenya.

For almost three weeks we have explored this wonderful country, but my focus here is only on Masai Mara although we have been also visiting Nairobi, Mombasa, and the lake Nakoru, etc.

We joined a group of visitors in Masai Mara. It was a small group of six people including both of us, and we camped near a village of Masai people in the savanna. So we were set in a completely wild environment.

When we were in this place, we were cut from the rest of the world and this changed our feeling about life. We sensed not only the immensity of the area but we also got the exceptional opportunity to observe all kind of wild animals. That was the first time I saw so many lions. Once in a minibus from the Reserve, we came very close to a family of 12 lions; another day an impressive group of elephants. I could not count how many they were but their thundering pace scared us a big deal when they came so close to the minibus. Everyone stayed quiet and silent.  I will never forget my feeling of that daunting moment in the savanna.

But after that everything came back to normal. We have seen a lot of many other wild animals. The tall giraffe, the adorable cheetahs, the hyenas, and many impalas and others. I have selected some pictures to share with you in the attachment.
