You seem by your words to be an open minded martial artists and said you have praticed Hung Gar before studying Wing Chun.

I am just wondering what attracted you to wing chun? I mean there were many styles to choose from in Hong Kong and if there were all good according to you, then what made you think yup wing chun is for me?

I was just curious to know more about your mindset at that time period. I have noticed that even tho wing chun students in hong kong didn't have to fight western boxers and/or kick boxers, your wing chun does have some techniques against these kinds of attacks. Did Yip Man teach you these techniques or did you use your own concepts learned from Yip Man to create these techniques?

My friend of mine who is also a JKD student said true Muay Thai kick boxers had pretty powerful kicks and steel like shins and that your techniques would not work against. I am just wondering does your technique work against them?
