Episode 8 - Interview with Sifu Stephen Murphy of Mystics Athletic School
In this interview I get the chance to ask my own Kung Fu instructor, Sifu Stephen Murphy about his 27 years of teaching traditional Chinese Kung Fu. He tells of his struggle with cancer, onset at the age of 23, and his introduction into the world of Chinese healing and internal arts or "the art of good health".
Sifu Steve talks about the mixture of martial arts styles taught at Mystics Athletic School, his introduction to the martial arts and experience training with Donnie Yen's mother, Bow Sim Mark. He also talks about the abundance of knowledge there is to be had in the world and how that helps us to always remain a beginner.
