The martial art was developed more tan 250 years ago in China by the nun Ng Mui and the beautiful Yim Wing Tsun, after whom it is name. Thanks to their highly developed martial art technique these women could win fights against the strongest men of their time. Since then Wing Tzun had been taught practically only within families and clans. The great master YIP Man who died in 1972, was the last wing Tzun teacher who taught Chinese students exclusively. Today, there are tens of thousands of members worldwide (in over 56 countries) who are learning this martial art system.
WING TZUNG FEATURES
Wing Tzun is self defense in it's most consequent form
Wing Tzun is the smartest self-defense system ever thought of by humankind, for these reasons: Wing Tzun is not based upon physical strength or acrobatic ability and therefore allows a physically weaker person to defend him/herself.
Wing Tzun teaches you to use the force of the opponent and turn it against him.
Wing Tzun self defense movements derive from tactile reflexes that are mechanical and directly determined by the attack of the opponent.
In this way Wing Tzun is not susceptible to optical manipulations meant to mislead the fighter.
Wing Tzun can be learned fairly quickly and built upon.
Wing Tzun meets the demands of "appropriate force" and therefore lends itself for use by law enforcement.
Wing Tzun is a whole martial arts system. Its significance lies less in stylistic externals and tricks but in the revolutionary totality of the concept! Immediacy, the small number of movements used, etc., make Wing Tzun the fastest martial art system ever!
