Sifu Wan is one of the best Wing Chun instructor, his emphasis is on practical wing chun, where he stressed the importance in real fighting, so his teaching is a bit depart from orthodox wing chun, but still very good.

in Sanskrit language this currency is called punya or "pious merit".it is the reason why some people have the best masters sent to them, and others cannot find them now matter how badly they want.wanting and deserving are 2 entirely different things. The Christians call this God's Grace and the Chinese call it Yuan2 Fun4 or Fate/Karma.And if you know nothing of what I'm talking about, then you wont need any luck in your training becuase you'll never get anywhere anyway.

according to your enlightened philosophy, you merely have to want something and others will give it to you, because well, you want it. just try that next time you walk onto a car show stage and tell the attendant to give you the keys to that nice ferrarri on show, becuse, well, you want it.there is a kind of spiritual currency required to earn your way into anything, the matter of deserving something is entirely diff. from merely wanting it. everybody wants to win but there's only 1 champ

And no, you're just blowing hot air. The greatest teachers most certaintly do not all teach the public. If you think otherwise then you're just a peasant who has learned his letters and croaking loudly his opinion without any real exp.Just because a master opens a class where anyone can walk in off the st. does not mean he is obligated to give anyone all his knowledge just becuase they want it.

As Su Dong Po said "When it comes to the state of mind of my writing there has never been any carved in stone set of rules, hence dont care so much about every point and stroke when it comes to writing as it is petty and annoying"."我書意造本無法，點畫信手煩推求。"東坡居士。

you speak of "greatest teachers" as if you are in the priveliged know, so let me ask you, in your vast personal experience, how many "greatest teachers" have you personally met and learned from?the search upwards for more advanced instruction at some point needs to turn within, and not without. otherwise you arent really learning.imitation, assimilation, innovation.

bhibatsu (December 31, 1969 at 6:59 pm)

I agree with your last comment, the greatest teachers are "largely" unconcerned with profit. It's called 緣分。or Fate. It takes more than your basic monthly fee and you "choosing" to learn from a master. You need destiny too, or you cant find them, or if you do, they dont want to teach you becuase for lack of better words, your vibe and their vibe dont mix, vibrate on the same frequency, or they just dont like your face. But "greatest teachers" have mortgages and families too.

Actually they all teach the public, you just have to go and search them out. God doesn't allow you to train, and God doesn't choose your sifu. God gave you the free will to choose from whom you learn your kung fu. And you are not stuck with whomever you started with, you must continue the search upwards for more advanced instruction. Too many treat the teaching of WC as a business, but the greatest teachers are always largely unconcerned with profit. There are no clips of nino or guy.

Give me some credit bro! At least I named some guys that you like. How many times have you seen that? I don't think its overly counter-productive to name a list of guys that are genuinely great as some of the best. And perhaps I am not well informed because I have never heard of barry lee. Now I know who he is thanks to you and I can research him. See? Lists are great. Oh yes and LTWT sucks. We had a guy the other day come in with 6 years at some bullshit WT place, he was sick as a dog after

hmm, only 4 sifu's,ah,that whole who-is-the-best-list crap is for kindergarten...but naming Nino (great guy) und Guy Cofie above Barry Lee is, well no offence, but it shows you are not that well informed. Nino admits that he was no match to Barry in their learning days by WSL Sifu.As for Leung Ting WT...it sucks, every,and I mean absolutely every LT WT student/Teacher that visited my classes converted to WSL style...
