ralf_dushifuRalf started training Martial Arts when he was 8 years old. He trained for 10 years Japanese Budo. He begun with the style of Karate Wado and later also trained Kendo, Aiki-Jitsu and Aikido. He started training Hung Gar Kung Fu in Utrecht and then in 2010 went for first time to China. There he trained with Shaolin and Meihua Master Du Shifu (Shi Yan Jun) and later the chance occurred to meet with Grandmaster Han Baiguang and to learn further on the traditional Meihua quan Kung Fu style from him. This style is not yet commonly known in the West but is a very effective northern style which has a careful balance between the internal and external.

In the Netherlands he trained at the Wushu team Utrecht and later at Young Dragons Utrecht where he trained and instructed Choi Li Fut, a style from the South of China. Begin 2014 he moved to Dubai where he continued training the styles of Shaolin quan and Tai Chi with Master John Duval and Master Frank Rao. From 2015 he teaches at The Home of Arts. Currently he trains each year in China with Grandmaster Han Baihuan and Bagua master Wang Guiliang.
