In memory of Choy Lee Fut Sydney student and friend, Tony Leitao

In Loving Memory of Tony Leitao
It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of our long-time student and friend, Tony Leitao, who trained with us for over 25 years.
Tony was already part of the Choy Lee Fut family when many of us began our journeys, and his presence was a constant reminder of dedication and perseverance. Quirky, soft-spoken, and steadfast, Tony just kept showing up, regardless of age or the challenges he faced. His quiet determination and unique spirit left an impression on everyone who had the privilege of training alongside him.
We only recently learned of Tony’s passing, almost a year ago, and it has been a moment of reflection and gratitude for the time we shared with him.
As we remember his journey and the impact he had on our kung fu family, we invite you to share your memories of Tony. Whether it’s a story, a kind word, or a photo from his years of training, your contributions will help us honour his life and legacy.
Take a moment to watch the compilation of videos and photos celebrating Tony’s time with us. Let us come together to remember and celebrate a remarkable individual whose quiet strength will always be a part of our school’s history.
Rest in peace, Tony. Your presence and spirit will never be forgotten.
