Accepted as pai shu (disciple) by shifu Dai Shi Zhe in 1983.
Shifu Orlando Acevedo was director of the school "La Danza del Drag�n" (Dragon Dance) in Maracay, Venezuela after shifu Tony Lima Fan Yep moved to Macao.
From the shifu Dai Shi Zhe students in Venezuela, shifu Orlando Acevedo was the first that accepted disciples (around 10) in 1989. Shifu Fu Song Nan and shifu Willy Rivero were witnesses in such ceremony.
At the end of the 90's he lost interest in traditional wu shu and started training modern wu shu, specially standarized Tai Ji Quan.
