From the young age of 5, Shifu Sunny began his martial Arts journey. Throughout his years he achieved top grades in traditional Karate, Tae Kwon Do and Silat. At a young age, he found his heart and home in Shaolin Gong Fu where he spent 18 years to date studying with highly regarded coaches, gaining deep knowledge and skill. Shifu Browne’s school 15 years ago became the home that excelled and fortified him to where he is now, one of the senior Masters at the school.
