Wing Chun Kung Fu is a close quarter Chinese fighting system first seen demonstrated in the West by movie star legend Bruce Lee. It was brought from China to Hong Kong in 1949 by Bruce Lee’s teacher, Grandmaster Ip Man (aka Yip man). Wing Chun was created by Shaolin nun, Ng Mui, in the 17th century and named after her first student, Yim Wing Chun. It has been passed on and developed by successive masters to become what it is today, a unique fighting system. It is characterised by using the most direct lines for attack and defence and combines explosive punches, elbows, palms, chops and mid to low section kicks.  Am I too Young or too old to learn ?

Leesaunders   10 #3 Posted October 20, 2014 Hi Danny,  No you would not need to start from the beginning. I would just check on what level your at and take it from there.  Class would be split from new starters to advanced levels.  Hope this helps  Regards  Lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
