Tao Chan Wing Chun Augsburg

Many are confused by the multitude of terms about "Wing Tsun Augsburg / Wing Chun". What is the difference? Where do the various names of Wing Tsun and Wing Chun come from? There is Wing Tsun Augsburg, Wing Chun Augsburg and Ving Tsun Augsburg. In Chinese everything is written the same way. However, some clever contemporaries in Germany believed that they had a kind of own creation of Wing Tsun / Wing Chun protected. In Hong Kong, Wing Chun and Ving Tsun are commonly used. So Wing Tsun Augsburg would not make sense. There is no official, binding spelling.

"If the Sifu hits hard and has a lot of muscles, you can in principle forget about him. On the other hand, if he hits softly and doesn't have too big muscles and treats his students well, he is a real Sifu." - This is a quote from Grand Master Ip Man. Anyone who only practices Wing Chun to earn money or self-adulation and students are beaten is not a real Sifu, because this has no place in a Buddhist martial art like Wing Chun. Buddhism is based on non-violence and the knowledge of the non-ego. Definitely not the self-adulation seen so often in Wing Tsun. Even Grandmaster Ven's friend. Chi Sim, the last descendant of Confucius Prof. Dr. Kong Teh Cheng, advisor to the President of the Republic of China in Taiwan, said that a Sifu who is a father figure has a duty of care towards his disciples, not a godlike ruler. This is how many Wing Tsun teachers like to portray themselves, which many Wing Tsun students do not know. The primary goal of Wing Chun is to improve behavior, life training and health. Only in the last position does the fight come in Wing Chun. This is also a quote from Ip Man.

The best known recognized masters and direct students of Grandmaster Ip Man in Hong Kong were Leung Sheung, Lok Yiu, Ip Chun, Ip Ching, Lo Man Kam, Tsui Sheung Tin, Wong Shun Leung, among others. The only one of these masters who is still alive is the Sifu of Abbot Chi Sim, Grand Master Ip Chun, who is now almost 100 years old.
