Sifu Dexter Parker has been a Peoria martial arts mainstay for more than 40 years.

The hung gar kung fu stylist says that kung fu has some answers to the human condition, such as who we are, what we are and why we are.

Mr. Parker discusses his lineage quite a bit after I asked him about it. To help provide more information, here is Liu Seong on Wikipedia.

He also talks about Reggie McKissick, who is seen working with Mr. Parker in this video.

Sifu Parker teaches classes at the Trinity Training Center in Peoria, Illinois.
