Grand Master Ip Man and his 10 Disciples

1n 1956 , GM Ip Man choosed 10 of his students to be his disciples , the reason why he choosed this 10 students to become his disciples is because they were as good as eachother . They are Lok Yiu , Leung Sheung , Chu Shong Tin , Au Keong ,
Wong Shun Leung , Ho Kam Ming , Moy Yat , William Cheung ,Wong Kiu and Leung Ting . This information came from these 2 - friends I have and they in turn learned from Au Keung ( Stanley Au ) in Hawaii . Thomas and Henry Zane was given permission to teach wing chun kung fu under Sifu Au , until they themselves retired as times went by for them . However they had 2 - assistant sifus who eventually became Sifus under the zane brothers , they are Sifu Darryl Norderstrom and Sifu Mark Higuchi .

You got from Au Keong that he’s the fourth Hokage of ip man?
Not Wong Shun Leung?

Ben Voyons.

4 closed door students, not 10.

There must be a signed declaration for such an event, please post. Thanks! :):D:)

There was only one closed door disciple and that was Ng Chan. :slight_smile: There can be only one.

Did Ip Man know pre-1850’s WCK?

if not, then none of this matters anyways.

youtube video or it never happened.

Excellent!
According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leung_Ting), Leung Ting was born 2/28/1947, so he was all of 9 years old when he was the “equal” of William Cheung, WSL, etc. No wonder he is the Master of Almightiness.

Lol. Wonder if the OP will maybe go back and check his facts. I hadn’t looked up the dates but that one jumped off the page to me straight away also the strange fact that the details of these events always seem to leak out from some obscure individual who heard from a friend, rather than being mentioned at all by any of the individuals who were actually there at the time at any point during their lifetimes, or by any of their direct students:rolleyes:

Love you guys, had a crappy morning, and you just laugh my day out, thank you infinitely.:smiley:

This thread makes me feel sorry for these forums. Poor forums. Poor, poor forums.

Dude, there has already been at least one inaccuracy pointed out with Leung Ting only being nine years old. Here’s another:

Moy Yat didn’t even start training under Yip Man until 1957, so how was he a “disciple” in 1956?

I don’t even get the purpose of the original post. This is the type of stuff that almost makes me embarrassed to tell people that I study Kung Fu. I study JKD, and one of my favorite aspects of my training is Wing Chun, but all the political, lineage, my system is better than yours, etc. is a tad bit disconcerting.

One of the facinating theories that tends to push this kind o legend is the way these dynamic indeviduals seem to each posess certain ‘gems’ of the larger art. Each potent alone but combined in the personage of Ip Man the total scope of Hong Kong VT. All came from the same sorce.Rarely in VT line since have so many radical perseptions come from one lineage.

All I know is the last one had the door close on his foot and ankle swelled up. Pain lasted all night and next day.
