Book excerpt: What we see today in MMA is a refl ection of the past - the complex amalgamation of striking, grappling and kicking styles that also previously existed in the Aumei monasteries. Most of the Wing Chun Kung Fu ``history" that is widespread and well-known to most people originated from a popular piece of fi ction that was written during the late Qing dynasty, and very few people today realize that Wing Chun has two very diff erent branches: Aumei Wing Chun and Shaolin Weng Chun. However, even though most of what the Western world knows of Wing Chun today is actually Shaolin Weng Chun, Aumei Wing Chun and Shaolin Weng Chun have fundamental diff erences which are refl ected in their family trees, techniques and philosophies. This book focuses on the Yuen Kay San/Sum Neng lineage of Wing Chun, an Aumei Style of Wing Chun. It clarifi es some of the history and philosophy behind Aumei Wing Chun and explains some Aumei Wing Chun techniques while shedding light on some of the diff erences between Aumei Wing Chun and Shaolin Weng Chun. Grandmaster Tom Wong was born in China and began studying Kung Fu and Chi Gong from a young age. In 1989, Grandmaster Sum Neng appointed Tom Wong as the youngest of the four chief instructors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the social history of southern Chinese martial arts and their contemporary importance to local identity and narratives of resistance. Hong Kong's Bruce Lee ushered the Chinese martial arts onto an international stage in the 1970s. Lee's teacher, Ip Man, master of Wing Chun Kung Fu, has recently emerged as a highly visible symbol of southern Chinese identity and pride. Benjamin N. Judkins and Jon Nielson examine the emergence of Wing Chun to reveal how this body of social practices developed and why individuals continue to turn to the martial arts as they navigate the challenges of a rapidly evolving environment. After surveying the development of hand combat traditions in Guangdong Province from roughly the start of the nineteenth century until 1949, the authors turn to Wing Chun, noting its development, the changing social attitudes towards this practice over time, and its ultimate emergence as a global art form.

Book excerpt: Master the many styles of Wing Chun Kung Fu with this expert martial arts guide. With the fame of Bruce Lee, the conditions in Hong Kong, and the hard work and effort of many of his classmates, the Wing Chun of the late master Yip Man became one of the most well-known and popular Chinese martial arts in the world. Although this gave Wing Chun international recognition, it also led to a lot of misconceptions. Due to a lack of authentic information, many mistakenly came to assume that the renowned Yip Man was the sole inheritor of the style and that his Wing Chun was the lone version of the art. In fact, there are several different and distinct systems of Wing Chun. Unfortunately, over the years most of these systems have remained unseen or unreported to all but a few—until now. Profusely illustrated with over 300 historical photographs, Complete Wing Chun: The Definitive Guide to Wing Chun's History and Traditions presents seldom seen information on a dozen branches of the Wing Chun art. It offers the reader side-by-side comparison of these arts by outlining each system in terms of Wing Chun history, principles, basics, and training methods: Yip Man Wing Chun Yuen Kay-San Wing Chun Kuen Gu Lao Wing Chun Kuen Nanyang Wing Chun Kuen Pan Nam Wing Chun Kuen Pao Fa Lien Wing Chun Kuen Hung Suen Wing Chun Kuen and more!
