Cutting through the hype and the myths to explore Wing Chun in the schools of Hong Kong and ask “Is this the most effective martial art in the world?”

Experience Wing Chun in its most authentic setting as we take you on a guided tour of many of Hong Kong’s top schools. Although there is only one Wing Chun it has evolved into many styles… from Ip Man Wing Chun to those that continue to develop the martial art as it spreads worldwide. “Even Ip Man modified his kungfu from his practice so we cannot stick to the word genuine anymore” says master Sam Lau, a direct student of Ip Man. Sifu Keung says simply “No matter which branch no one can say their Wing Chun is 100 percent perfect as each have their own way of practicing and if theirs is useless it will disappear.”
The only way to understand a martial art is to experience first hand the class training with the teachers and students. In this 75 minute documentary you will get as close as possible to this experience without leaving your home! Watch, listen and learn as teachers and students share their knowledge and experience of the principles, training and practical fighting aspects of Wing Chun.

An excellent broad overview of learning Wing Chun in Hong Kong and the variations of the styles of teaching and consequently Wing Chun as it progresses through the modern era. There are some good techniques and tips that can be picked up through watching it.
