More photos from the private archive of the #UKWCKFAAll photos shot by James Sinclair in Manchester UK circa 1988 at Grandmaster Ip Chun's request.-----------------------------------------------------------------The Art of #wingchun owes massive thanks to Grandmaster Ip Chun. He kept the legacy of our beautiful Art going after his fathers passing. It was not his choice, however, he took on the challenge, travelling the world and spreading the word.Living in your fathers shadow, and continuing his legacy, is no easy path for anybody. Sadly many people have been critical. GM Ip Chun brought the Art to the attention of so many parts of the world. He did this way before the dawn of the internet and the childlike hissy fits between instructors. These political disturbances within the Art were about money and fame, and attempting to grab a bigger share of the martket. They were not positive or constructive. Grandmaster Ip Chun was always very gracious to the UKWCKFA and gave freely of his knolwedge. It was others who found umbrage in his acts of kindness.Many people now feel thier linage is superior and act with almost evangelical fervour for thier teacher. The Art we love deserves ALL of the teachers who stepped up following the passing of GM Ip Man and Bruce Lee to be applauded, not just the teacher's who's students shout loudest. #wingchunrayleigh #wingchunleicester #wingchunbedford #ipchun #wingchun ...

Thank you for your kind likes of the previous private photos from our archive. We hope you continue to enjoy the history these reflect and do not find them too self iindulgent. The #UKWCKFA were simply guests and were given permission to take a few photos. In this small collection we have Grandmaster Wong Shun Leung demonstrating the 棍馬箭拳 training drill associated with strength training for the pole. We also have a few photos on the Wooden Dummy. We can only hope you enjoy them.#wongshunleung #vingtsun #wingchun #wingchunrayleigh #wingchunleicester #wingchunbedford #ukwckfa ... See MoreSee Less
