One of GM Phan Hoang’s habits is to write something down every day: a thought, a poem, a letter, a document, anything he feels like expressing, even a drawing, a photo, etc.
On this page you will find many of his original writings.

Calm and lucid before the fight.
Overwhelming during the fight.
Always ourselves after the fight.

Gran Master Phan Hoang

Life afflicts with a thousand low blows…
Look at the immensity of the Universe and remember well that you came into the world naked and with empty hands.
Who could make you lose more?
Go without fear!

If you are not, give the impression that you are, the courage will come.

Say “thank you” as sincerely and as often as possible.

Gran Master Phan Hoang

Our Way is not a goal to strive for but a path to follow.

Avoid criticising other disciplines and even more so their teachers.
If you think it is necessary, make constructive comments.

Always put a coin in the hat of a travelling artist or musician and consider it as a contribution to good public atmosphere.
A society without street performers is a fundamentally sad society.
