The Wu Ree Kung Fu Institute
The Wu Ree Kung Fu Institute houses both the training institute for the Wu Ree Kung Fu and the Research Institute that specializes in the Kung Fu of Wu Ming Ahn.
The Wu Ree Kung Fu Institute was established to preserve the teachings of Sifu Wu Ming Ahn (Dr. Fred Wu) The Institute houses both internal and external systems of kung fu and systems that are original and unique to the Wu Ree Clan. Dr. Reeves (Wu Ch'ien Ree began studying from Dr. Wu in the early 70's after having studied with other instructors such as:
1. Norman Sabir Ashanti (Shoto Kan and Al Bahar Jiu-Jitsu)
2. Ronnie Burgeous (Yamashita) -Shoto Kan
3. Master Greenlee (Shaolin Tiger) - Student of Wu Ming Ahn
4. Paul Keller & Dave Ruppart (Shorein Ryu)
Dr. Reeves spent 5 extensive years training with Wu Ming Ahn learning his principles systems of Wu Wing Chun, 5 Animal Fist, Push Hand and Chin Na, Breath Control & Chi Building, Dodging, Southern Kicking, Iron Palm & Hand Conditioning and Chinese Massage. Other animal techniques were absorbed and learned at the studio ran by Dr. Wu. A Broken Knee forced him to forego his training until years later where he trained for 2 more years.
Dr. Reeves also spent time studying under Benny Meng in the Yip Man system of Wing Chun and also under Grand Master Ahn Tiien Rhong learning the Yang Style Tai Chi (24 Form, Push Hands, Chi Kung, 40 Form and basic Ba Qua Walking).
Dr. Reeves has studied martial arts since he was in the 5th grade in the late 60's and has spent the last 49 years in the martial arts in one form or another. After studying with Grand Master Park in the Sun Do Chi Builiding exercises and studying both wrestling, Judo and other forms of the martial arts Dr. Reeves began developing the system taught to him by Wu Ming Ahn into an extensive system of fighting.
Over the years Dr. Reeves has taken several students but has of late been perfecting the Wu Ree System and as the Head Master and Chief Instructor called a Training And Legacy Sabbatical for all Wu Ree Students to perfect their discipline and specialities. He is now preparing all students to take their place as instructors and masters of this art.
