The Origin of Wing Tzun

The martial art was developed more than 250 years ago in China by the nun NG Mui and the beautiful Yim Wing Tzun, after whom the martial art is named. Thanks to their highly developed martial art technique these two women could win fights with the strongest men of their time. Since then Wing Tzun had been taught practically only within families and clans. The great master Yip Man who died in 1972, was the last Wing Tzun teacher who taught Chinese students exclusively. Today there are tens of thousands of members worldwide (in over 56 countries) who are learning this martial art system which was updated by Leung Ting, Yip Man's latest master-pupil.

The EBMAS Chief-instructor, Dai Sifu Emin Boztepe, brought the EBMAS Wing Tzun & Latosa Escrima Organization to Europe, south America and U.S.A. and has trained several generations of highly qualified martial arts instructors all over the World.
