Re: What are the similarities between Wing Chun and Ngo Cho Kun ? > Originally posted by FIRE HAWK > What are the similarities between Wing Chun and Ngo Cho Kun ? Some because both believe the use of arms is better than the use of legs. Both give more training punches than kicks and give importance in blocking. But different in approaching the enemy. Wingchun (leung ting lineage) likely to punch faster and the more punch the better and traping the opponent but don’t use blocks to harm opponents but only trapping them. Ngo Cho Kun (CGB lineage) is more likely to only use few punches to drop the enemy(you will know why when you fight against one). Ngo Cho Kun has more a stable punch and always find its opponent trap or give pain and weaken the enemy punches by hitting certain part of the arm through blocking. A NCK fighter adept with the strength of his Ngo Ki can endure strong kicks and punches. This is due to the influence of Tat Chun that helps strengthen the practitioners body (the tension concept). Tat Chun is one of the 5 ancestor or source styles that compose Ngo Cho Kun. The other 4 ancestor styles is Kao Kun(monkey kung fu), Pe Ho(fukienese white crane), Lo han, and Tai Cho. ---

I think I know of one NCK practitioner in Melbourne, but I don’t know if he still trains and I don’t know him personally. However, if you are ever is Sydney, or if I am ever in Melbourne I am more than happy to try and hook up. Can I ask where you originally trained NCK? ---

I’ve been involved in NCK art since early 70’s. The more I know and practice the more I love it. My sifu is one of the most senior disciples of the Lo family in Jakarta. I do not know if you have heard about them? Cheers. ---

My sifu is one of the most senior disciples of the Lo family in Jakarta. I do not know if you have heard about them? Cheers. Cool. Unfortunately I have not had any contact with practitioners from other lineages yet so I can’t say that I know of the Lo family. Hopefully we can get together soon and exchange notes. 🙂 ---
