Chu Shong Tin | The King of Siu Nim Tao Part I

Chu Shong Tin | The King of Siu Nim Tao Part I Coined the 'King of Siu Nim Tao' by Yip Man, Grandmaster Chu Shong Tin believed that more time should be given to practice the first form of Wing Chun Kung Fu (Siu Nim Tao) to uncover its deeper essence. Chu Shong Tin (Chinese: 徐尚田; born 1933, died 2014) was the third student of martial arts teacher Yip Man in the discipline of Wing Chun, and remained at Yip Man's school to become his senior instructor. He moved to Hong Kong in November 1949 and began learning Wing Chun informally in September 1950. At 17, Chu was a secretary at HK Restaurant Workers Union where Yip Man held classes. Chu became Yip Man's formal student in January 1951. Grandmaster Chu passed away July 28th 2014. He taught selected students from all over the world, communicating with English speaking students through body language and hands on demonstration. He spent 64 years teaching Wing Chun Kung Fu full time with the goal of passing on his understanding of Nim Lik to ensure its survival. Long live his Wing Chun!
