Branches of Wing Chun
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The different Branches of Wing Chun ((aka WingTsun), (Ving Tsun Pual Tang founder) (Chinese: 詠春; Pinyin: yǒng chūn; Yale Cantonese: wing2 cheun1) in mainland China) can be thought of as describing both the differing traditions and interpretations of Wing Chun, and the teacher/student relationships which perpetuate them. Some see lineage as a kind of pedigree which implies credibility depending on branch and seniority, while others deem it immaterial.
This family tree starts with the well known Yip Man family because of its size in the family tree as a whole. The many other known branches of Wing Chun follow, which is not meant to diminish their importance.
Branches of Wing Chun also represents an abridged listing, following Wikipedia list standards, showing only 3 generations in depth. For more complete listings for individual branches, please consult with a representative from that branch.
[edit] Reliability, context and conventions
There is no universally recognized sanctioning body for Wing Chun which governs certification of lineage, nor an unambiguous way of defining lineage. A student may be heavily influenced by many teachers, or even students of higher seniority. A student may have trained less time under one teacher, but identify more with the teachings of another. A student may also pass on an interpretation radically different from what they were taught.
Please visit individual school's web pages for more a complete listings of their branch/linneage, or contact a representative of that branch to question length of study in that branch.
This article uses no convention but instead relies on existing published family trees. As a consequence, the possibility of contradiction and inconsistency exists.
[edit] Yip Man branch
Yip Man was well respected by other martial arts instructors in Foshan and Hong Kong. He was the first person to teach Wing Chun to a wider public. After his death, many of his students formed separate schools. In some cases, instructors developed more systematic methodologies of teaching Wing Chun -- however, there is probably no substitute for direct hands-on transmission of the feel of the art. This has led to varying interpretations of the art.
Yip Man was well-known for having a very quick wit and an acid tongue. His teaching style, along with the very direct nature of the art and its despising of superfluous talk, infuses the art with a certain edginess. This is probably why Wing Chun is well-known for being split into many factions.

[edit] Ho Kam-Ming
Ho Kam Ming began learning from Yip Man in the late 1950s. In the mid-1960s, Ho opened his own school in nearby Macao, but returned to Hong Kong on weekends to train. Ho became a close friend of his teacher over the years. When Yip fell ill, Ho helped care for him. In the early 1990s, Ho relocated to Ontario, where his son opened a school.

History Jiu Wan (招允; pinyin: Zhāo Yǔn) first taught Wing Chun at Jing Mo Gwun, a school in Foshan, China. When the Communists took over China, he moved to Hong Kong where he continued to teach.
Jiu Wan's relationship with Yip Man is controversial among students of both branches. Some students of Jiu Wan maintain 1 maintain he studied under his cousin and later under Yip Man. Yip Man students claim that as well. Jason Lau's branch of Jiu Wan 2 claim were kung fu brothers directly under Chan Wah Shun.

[edit] Nguyễn Tế-Công branch (Vietnam WingChun 永春)
- Nguyễn Tế-Công (阮濟云; Yale Cantonese: yun5 jai2 wan4; Yuen Chai-Wan) Older brother of Yuen Kay-San
Yuen Chai-Wan (Ruan Jiwan) was the fourth son of a Foshan Fireworks merchant and was thus also known as Yuen Lo Sei (Yuen the Fourth). Due to a childhood illness, he was also referred to as Dao Pei Chai (Pock Skin Chai). Yuen first learned Wing Chun Kuen under Fok Bo-Chuen and later continued his studies with Fung Siu-Ching. In Foshan, Yuen Chai-Wan taught students such as Yiu Choi.
In 1936 he was invited to teach Wing Chun in Vietnam, at the Nanhai and Shunde Expatriates Associations and moved to Hanoi, where he was known by the Vietnamese pronunciation of his name, Nguyen Te-Cong, and founded his first school. In 1954 he relocated to Saigon (Now, Ho Chi Minh City) where he established a second school. Among his students in Vietnam were Nguyen Duy-Hai, Luc Vien Khai (The Southern school), Tran Van Phung, Vu Ba Quy, Ngo Si Quy, Tran Thuc Tien (The Northern school) and others, whose disciples are continuing teaching Wingchun in Vietnam today.
Yuen Chai-Wan died in 1959 at the age of 82.
