History and Focus
Wing Tsun is a traditional chinese combat system developped by a woman.
Wing Tsun focuses on practical self-defense techniques and close-range combat. It emphasizes efficiency, sticking contact and simultaneous defense and attack movements. Wing Tsun is known for its principles of redirecting and controlling an opponent's force, using quick and compact movements, and developing sensitivity and awareness. It is a well-respected martial art that has gained popularity worldwide.
The principles of giving way and attacking simultanously, sticking to what comes from the opponent and finishing the fight straightly make Wing Tsun outstanding.
Yip Man was the first to teach bigger classes when he came in the 1950th to Honkong. His most famous student was Bruce Lee and his latest private student Leung Ting. He was the teacher of GM Kernspecht. And so came Wing Tsun from Honkong to Europe in the 1970th
GM Kernspecht visited many of he old Masters of Yip Man and students of Bruce Lee and is still travelling around the world to meet masters of different styles. By this he is contiouisly developping the Wing Tsun we teach nowadays in the EWTO.
