Grand Master Lin Qing Song (9段大師林青松)

Born in 1949 in Yin Lin, Republic of China, Lin Qing Song started his martial education at just six years old with Yang-style Tai Ji Quan. His discipline deepened at 16 when he joined the Taiwanese Marines, where he took up Tae Kwo Do. By the age of 20, he was leading instructor training at the official Marine and Navy school, simultaneously mastering Shaolin Boxing (少林拳) and Chinese medicine. A two-time Chinese and Asian champion in Lei Tai during the 1970s, he later brought the Taiwanese Guo Shu style to Argentina and was appointed president of the ACKF – Argentinian Chinese Kuoshu Federation (阿根廷中華國術總會).

Under his mentor, he mastered Southern styles Wing Chun (詠春拳) and the nearly extinct Buddha Fist (佛家拳). In 1976, he introduced Buddha Fist to Argentina. In 1981, he accepted Miguel Castromán as a student, and two years later they opened a martial arts academy in Buenos Aires. For a decade, Castromán trained under his direct guidance.

Grand Master Ma Xian Feng (马先峰师傅)

At forty, he emigrated to Spain, spending five years teaching there before settling in Buenos Aires, Argentina. There, he quietly dedicated himself to transmitting the pure essence of Northern Chinese martial arts to the local Chinese community, becoming a revered bridge between ancient tradition and South American soil.
