The Happenings

-- Grandmaster Yip Man --

Hong Kong's Long Fist gold medallist 杜宇航 To Yu Hang started his training in wushu at the age of six at Hong Kong Wushu Union's classes, before subsequently becoming Hong Kong Wushu Team member. He has recently taken part in Hong Kong leg of Olympics Torch Relay 2008 as one of the local 120 Torchbearers.

To Yu Hang has just made his screen debut in Wilson Yip's Grandmaster Yip Man, "Once, I was on a TV programme on the bus that introduced Hong Kong athletes, it happened that the boss of the a talent agency saw it, got in touch with me, asking if I would be interested to join the showbiz. We talked for a long time, he lamented about the dearth of martial artists on screen, and invited me to develop my career as an action star. I thought, since I'm still young, I should try out different things, and so I joined my agent's big family."
