By Robert Chu, René
Ritchie, and Y. Wu
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 presents
seldom seen information
on a dozen branches of
the Wing Chun art. It
offers the reader a
side-by-side comparison
of these arts by
outlining each system in
terms of history,
principles, basics, and
training methods. This
is a helpful resource
for the interested
newcomer and a valuable
reference for the
long-time practitioner.
