The simple and profound truth about Wing Chun Illustrated is that it delivers!

In a world where bias is omnipresent, hagiography widespread, and superficiality the norm, Wing Chun Illustrated truly does provide a forum for many perspectives and approaches, always with depth and content—meaning that it’s impossible to pick up an issue without gaining new, worthwhile insight into our beloved art. Truly, if one is serious about understanding Wing Chun, regardless of spelling tradition, Wing Chun Illustrated is de rigueur. Consequently, never settle for “just” present and future issues, but do get the full package, including all the back issues!

Issue No. 41 featuring Sifu Stephen Chan is now available as Print-on-Demand and Download.

Grandmaster Chan Tak Kwong, otherwise known as Sifu Stephen Chan, started teaching Wing Chun in a London church hall for three British pounds per night. Over forty years later, he is back in Hong Kong keeping the Gung Fu tradition alive in his native land, both by teaching and by stunt acting in Hong Kong films.

A so-called “neotraditionalist,” Sifu Chan combines modernity with tradition, using new techniques from streetfighting and other martial arts alongside original teachings from his lineage under Grandmaster Chow Tze Chuen.

Sifu Chan recognises that although different Wing Chun lineages may have different interpretations, the core principles are truly the same.
