Ving Tsun Update – 2012 Round up

The last few months of 2012 were packed with exciting events in the world of World of Wong Shun Leung Ving Tsun (WSLVT) practitioners. The first ever worldwide gathering of the Wong Shun Leung Ving Tsun clan was held in Seremban Malaysia during October. Seven instructors including; Wong Sifu’s son John Wong, John Smith, Li Hang Cheong, Enzo Verratti, Jerry Yeung, Rolf Clausnitzer and Mark Wong gave presentations on various aspects of Ving Tsun over two days.

A number of other instructors from around the world attended also including; Morten Ibsen (Denmark),  Wang Zhipeng (China), Stefan Kunev (Bulgaria),  Dwight Hennings (Canada) Jason Gowan (UK),  Akim Otmane (France), a number of other instructors from Hong Kong  and of course representatives of our school . The event was a great opportunity to train with different people from all over the world and share ideas on WSLVT.  The plan is to repeat this event in Hong Kong in 2014.

The Wong Shun Leung Students association (WSLSA) was established also. This body exists to preserve the WSL way of Ving Tsun. The WSLSA aims to bring together all practitioners of WSLVT to share their understanding of Ving Tsun and ensure uniformity in the key aspects of this method so that they are passed on intact to each generation of students. The WSLA website address is http://www.wslstudents.org  and the address of their facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/wslsa

The training year for us in Melbourne was capped off with training focussing on Key aspects of Ving Tsun structures, laying the foundations for the training agenda for 2013.
