Thanks for this video. Despite all the controversy and arguments about Wing Chun, watching this man quietly and flawlessly perform this form compels all practitioners to a common higher standard.

Wow. I can’t thank you enough for finding and posting this.
No words for the impact the Grandmaster has had on our world. Beautiful to see him in motion.

God bless Yip Kai-Man (Ip Man), 1983-1971. Hi son Ip Chun He was born June 10, 1924, Ip Chun is 97 now, one year older than my grandfather (a World War 2 Veteran too) was born March 27, 1925.
I like the story of his father Ip Man. Feeding a man in his home, the Japanese invaded and took his home loosing all material possessions (homeless) he remained happy and still loved his son and his wife, later defeating a Japanese General to unite Chinese together. Later then opening a School in Hong Kong city, not just for himself but for others, sacrificing his time to help others, and doing it for others, because his kindness believed in giving others a chance to learn. His father was a kind man that believed in humanity and individual has worth from within.
Now Ip Chun continues the Wing Chun Kuen legacy going and keeping the tradition alive.
This is so special and all worth the while.

Makes him still alive especially if you train hard
It's sad there's so much rivalry between brothers of wing Chun our forefathers would be ashamed and especially GM Yip Man. Peace to all brothers of kung fu

I miss my friend Kenan, who showed me Wing Chun...before I had low confidence, and I felt good and empowered by his one on one training...I went to a Wing Chun class they showed me forms, etc with little one on one training that made me feel bad ....so please take my advise, when a student quits, in many cases, you failed spirit of martial arts is love of what your doing, nothing else 💝💝😍

[Phoenix-tvgb]

The best version, everyone else, stop changing it please 💝💝💝

Ip Man was one of the most respected masters in China, his legacy will live on forever.

Thank you for letting me download this.

[allthingspolitics]

I'm stunned that this doesn't have more like 135M views as opposed to 135K Views... This is Yip Man, Sifu of the greatest martial artist that ever was, or ever will be, Bruce Lee

[lelandlee]

BRINGS BACK MEMORIES AT NINE YEARS OLD FIRST TIME FIRST SET WING CHUN ALWAYS WONDERED IF IT WAS DOING ME ANY GOOD BECAUSE IT DIDN'T FEEL LIKE IT....WELL 58 YRS OLD AND LET ME TELL YOU IT'S MAGICAL

[reybarreto]

Thank you for making this important video available. I only wish I could slow it down, especially in the third section of Siu Nim Tao, so I can more clearly see the subtle movements of his hands when he goes from fist to tan sao. His hand does not seem to travel straight up...it seems to first travel slightly across his abdomen and chest toward center and THEN forward and up into tan sao.

Excelente performance, a pesar de nunca haber admitido enseñar a extranjeros dejo éste footage, para quien quiera y pueda aprender el arte del Wing Chun, el cuál fue diseñado por Ng Mui. Que en paz descanse, cuanto de tu humildad tienen que aprender los que hoy se dicen llamar Gran Maestro y lo cuál vos estuviste en desacuerdo.
