The spread of the original Wing Chun system in the west is the goal of the TCWCO (Tao Chan Wing Chun Organization), which was founded by Grand Master Abbot Chi Sim.

The TCWCO is divided as follows:
ITCWCO (International Tao Chan Wing Chun Organization)
based in Hong Kong as a world umbrella organization

ETCWCO (European Tao Chan Wing Chun Organization)
based in Nuremberg

The TCWCO does not depend on any financial income from students, advertising associations, press or sales and therefore acts independently. It is not subject to any instructions from other associations, neither Chinese nor international Wing Chun associations.

This is due to a promise that Grand Master Ab Chi Sim gave his friend, the last descendant of Confucius in 2001, Prof. Dr. Kong Teh-Cheng has given to spread the real Chinese culture in the west and the promise to his teacher Prof. Dr. Ip Chun, to defend the real Wing Chun also in the West against all odds.

Unlike the usual Wing Chun schools in Germany, Abbot Chi Sim integrates Chinese culture and ethics into both the teaching methodology and the graduation system, which are strongly influenced by Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism.

The following branches of the TCWCO are:

  • Nuremberg
  • Munich
