Sifu Wang Kiu - Video Footage Finally Online

Hello everyone.

The foundation Wang Kiu Wing Chun (SWK) has put some footage of Sifu Wang Kiu online for the first time ever! Normally this kind of footage is never brought to public, but it's the wish of his students and Sifu himself to show us his way of Wing Chun. It's not the right or wrong way, it's the Wing Chun as he was taught by Yip Man.

Joseph Wang Kiu was one og the core 5 private students of Yip Man (together with Leung Sheung, Lok Yiu, Wong Shun Leung and Tsui Sheung Ting).

On this moment, Sifu Wang Kiu is allready 84 years old (as of 2008) and lives in The Hague, The Netherlands for allready about 40 years.

Sifu Wang Kiu gave exclusive permission to the foundation Wang Kiu Wing Chun to put some of his private footage online in the next years. Just for sharing to see where his roots are from.

The first small video is online now presenting Sifu Wang Kiu in the 80's doing the first 30 Dummy Works as he was taught by his teacher Yip Man.

The Dummy Works are always like a mirror. What you do left, you do right.

You can watch the footage on www.wangkiu.nl (his personal website) and www.vechtsport.org (website of the foundation Wang Kiu Wing Chun).

Also the video is online on youtube.

We are planning to put some more video's online in the near future, but then especially with all the explanations from Sifu himself, because video only doesn't tell you/us much. There's so much Wing Chun on the internet that it's hard to really understand how the principles of the system work and that's why we will put the video's on www.wangkiu.nl with English explanations of the movements.

Enjoy watching!

A better way to put it: It's the Wing Chun as Wang Kiu understood it from the teachings of Yip Man.
