Paulie Zink is an American martial arts champion, Daoyin teacher and well known practitioner of Monkey Kung Fu.
While he was attending the Los Angeles City College, Cho Chat Ling—a student from Hong Kong—showed him that he could improve his kung fu through foundational advanced yoga postures.
Thereafter, Zink studied privately with Cho for a decade, learning three separate styles of kung fu.
Zink was trained as Cho Chat Ling's protege to expose the styles of kung fu to the west.
