1985 karate kid

Gingi Lee training with Sensei Richard Lee (Hanshi) in Paris, France.

|    Shala Story

Aged 12, Gingi Lee begins his study of the Martial Arts with his Father’s original Master, Sensei Richard Kim in San Francisco. There are no children’s classes, so Gingi practices with the adults. He follows Sensei Kim in his Tai Chi forms with not a word spoken for what seemed like hours. Aged 18, Gingi moves from California to Paris to apprentice in martial arts with his father Sensei Richard Lee (Hanshi) and he spends much of his training outdoors in the Bois de Bologne (above), come rain or shine.
