Grand Project 80th Anniversary Birth

of Vovinam-Viet Vo Dao

Demonstration at the Grand Theater of Hanoi

And intensive internship in 2019 in Vietnam

 

Eighty years ago ... a young man, 27 years old, decided to officially present his art for the first time to the general public at the Grand Theater of Hanoi, Vietnam, in the autumn of 1939 ... This young man is called NGUYEN Loc and art presented in this demonstration is the VOVINAM. 

… It was a great success… and this event marked the official birth of Vovinam-Viet Vo Dao.

Since this memorable date, all over the world, every practitioner in Vovinam Viet Vo Dao dreams of realizing the same journey by reliving history at the Grand Theater of Hanoi.. 

This year, commemorating the 80th anniversary of the official presentation of Vovinam, we will revive this extraordinary demonstration in the same place of "our birth": The Grand Theater of Hanoi in Vietnam.

Project Objectives: 

• Intensive international internship (every day and 5 hours a day), including a week in Hanoi (capital of VN) and a week in Sapa (High mountainous plateaus north of the VN, close to the border with China). You will be supervised by masters among the most illustrious (at VN and abroad). 

• Great demonstration in Hanoi to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the first demonstration of Vovinam-Viet Vo Dao done by our founding master at the great theater of Hanoi in 1939.
