Chin Woo is one of the earliest community sport organisations in China for the promotion of traditional Chinese martial arts. The Shanghai Chin Woo Athletics Association is the first Chinese martial arts association founded in 1910 by Huo Yuanjia. Many Chin Woo Athletics Associations have since established in over 50 countries around the world. The Australia Chin Woo has been established in Sydney since 1976. In the last 40 years the NSW Chin Woo Athletics Association, a non-profit organisation, has created a good platform to unite all martial art organisations, with the same aims of promoting Chinese Wushu culture and developing a harmonious multicultural society in Australia.

The first World Chin Woo Championship was held in Shanghai in 1990 and it was decided that such an important cultural event should be held once every two years. In October 2012 and August 2014, the 12th and 13th World Chin Woo Championships were successfully held in Tianjin and Shanghai China, respectively. The NSW Chin Woo Athletics Association assembled a dedicated Chin Woo Wushu Team to participate in these two international events and obtained outstanding results. This year, the World Chin Woo Martial Arts and Championship and Cultural Festival will take place in July 22-25, 2016 at Dallas, Texas, USA. All Chin Woo members around the world are welcome to participate in competitions for traditional kung fu and tai chi, wushu, wing chun, sparring and push hands, sanda and chi-shou. We are looking forward to have more members to form a NSW Chin Woo Team to attend this World event in the USA.

Please visit the NSW Chin Woo website http://www.nswchinwoo.com for further details.

The Chinese Wushu Duan-Wei System is the official system implemented by the Chinese Wushu Association to overall evaluate and recognise the levels of Wushu practitioners. The first Oceania Wushu Duan-Wei Grading Course and Exam organised by Kung Fu Wushu Australia and Chinese Wushu Association was successfully held in Australia. This has signified a milestone achievement for the development of Chinese wushu in Australia.

The Chinese Wushu Association has paid highly attention to this Duan-Wei Grading Course and Exam by sending an official delegation led by Mr Kang Ge Wu of Wushu 9th Duan and head-in-charge of the Chinese Wushu Duan-Wei System, companying with the following five wushu experts to conduct the training course and judging of the exam:

Ms Zhang Yu-Ping, Wushu 8th Duan; Mr Zhao You-Bin, a famous Yang Taiji Master and Wushu 8th Duan; Mr Sa Jun-Jie, son of the late famous Xing-Yi and Ba-Gua Master Sa Guo Zheng, and Mr Kang Tao, a disciple of the famous Chen Taiji Master Chen Zheng-Lei.

A total of 31 wushu practitioners from various regions of Australia participated in the grading course and exam.

Master Alice Dong, who is the President of the Pei-Lei Chinese Wushu Centre and also the fifth lineage holder of traditional Yang Taiji, has achieved the Wushu 8th Duan.

Alice said that she was very grateful to accept this honour, as it is a big recognition and acknowledgement for her progressive contribution to the development of Chinese wushu culture. She has confidence to continue her effort to prosper Chinese wushu culture in Australia. She was excited to have met the famous Yang Master Zhao You-Bin. Master Zhao came to Sydney for the Yang Taiji teaching and net-working activity after the duan-wei grading course and exam. Students of the Pei-Lei Wushu Centre had an opportunity to meet and to discuss with Master Zhao on taiji topics while having dinner together.

All wushu lovers around the world would have the same aims in making friendship, promoting unification, learning from each other and inheriting the traditional Chinese wushu culture. No matter where we are, we always belong to a big taiji family.

The Pei-Lei Chinese Wushu Centre has been established in Australia for 20 years. The Centre has trained students with excellent achievements in many National and International Championships with many medal awards from gold to bronze. The Center has also made an excellent contribution to the continuing development of Chinese Wushu by successfully training up wushu judges and coaches.

          NSW Chin Woo Wushu Team for the 2014 World Chin Woo Championship

The NSW Chin Woo Athletics Association and Pei-Lei Wushu Center jointly held a celebrating function on the evening of 14/6/2014 at the Don Moore Community Centre, Carlingford. This was to celebrate the NSW Chin Woo Wushu Team going to compete at the 2014 World Chin Woo Championship in August at Shanghai, China. A large contingent of over 200 attendees came to support the celebration event including Masters Boun Lee, Wilson Chan, Raymond Wu, David Choi, Steven Yoong, Santo Ma and Ken Chow with their students, and the Pei-Lei wushu students. Invited VIP guests who were present included Councillor Le Lam of Auburn; Mr Hugh Lee, President of the Australian Asian Association of Bennelong (AAAB); Mr Hardi Lam, representative of the Singtao Chinese newspaper and Ms Arlene Cui, representative of the XKB Chinese newspaper. All attendees expressed well wishes to the NSW Chin Woo team to achieve excellent results in the championships, and enjoyed a fun night with entertainment programs include lion dance, tai chi and kung-fu performances.

Alice Dong, President of NSW Chin Woo mentioned in her speech that,

“The NSW Chin Woo Athletics Association has always given support and participated in activities promoting traditional Chinese wushu and culture, these activities have been documented in the NSW Chin Woo website. In recalling the 2012 World Chin Woo Championship in Tianjin China, a dedicated NSW Chin Woo wushu team of 30 members to attend the event was assembled, and the team achieved excellent results. Due to an inappropriate timing for the 13^th World Chin Woo event this year in Shanghai, we have managed to assemble a smaller team of more than 10 members to attend the event. We are also lucky to obtain financial donations from our Honourable Chairpersons, Mr Tony Ma, Mr Henry Wong and Mr Jiang Ding for tonight’s function.  We sincerely thank everybody for your continued support for the NSW Chin Woo, and will continue to work hard to develop NSW Chin Woo”.
