Why you should train
Wing Chun
Ving Tsun (Wing Chun) teaches you how to strike opponents without damaging your hands. This is why we train without padded gloves to learn to strike properly while protecting the fist.
It teaches you how to fight bigger people.
It teaches women how to fight men.
It teaches you how to fight multiple opponents.
It uses realistic low kicks that you can use in a fight.
It is based on physics and the human body.
It doesn’t require special equipment for training.
It teaches you how to stay on your feet in a fight so you don’t end up getting stomped by opponents.
Ving Tsun (Wing Chun) separated itself from all other Martial Arts in Hong Kong in the ‘60s for the superior fighting ability it gave when taught by Grandmaster Yip Man. When Bruce Lee came to America, Ving Tsun again shook the Martial Arts community. When utilized by a skilled practitioner Ving Tsun is extremely effective for self defense.

The follow is the lineage of the Ving Tsun Kung Fu system.
The system was developed in the Shaolin Temple in the mid 17th century. From there a Buddhist nun, Ng Mui, spread the system to a young lady named Yim Ving Tsun. During this period, the system was refined to allow it to work for women and people of smaller stature. After Yim Ving Tsun’s passing her husband, Leung Bok Tao, named the system in her honor.
The system was passed from teacher to student until the modern era when Grandmaster Yip Man became a famous teacher in Hong Kong. In the following generation, Grandmaster Moy Yat brought the system to the United States.

This photo was taken in 2000 at Sifu O’Brien’s Bi Tzi ceremony in which he became an official member of Grandmaster Moy Yat’s Special Student Association (GSSA). Very few people achieved the honor of joining the GSSA and had the privilege of being able to train with the late Grandmaster Moy Yat.
