fighting like a girl... | 象女孩一樣打...

There has always been the misconception that Wing Chun kung fu was developed by a girl for a girl, but in reality, Wing Chun is a method of combat that has been developed for human beings, regardless of gender, race, or even choice of eating habits.  Wing Chun's success as one of the premier combat arts is due primarily to it simplicity, efficiency, and directness in both its techniques and concepts. 

I have trained extensively in Wing Chun for many years and have taught it to quite a few people at my father's martial arts academy back in Chicago, so imagine my glee when I was offered a role as Chan Wah Shun (a.k.a Money Changer Wah) in a TV series about Wing Chun with a cast that included Sammo Hung (as Wong Wah Bo) and Yuen Biu (as Leung Jan).  For those of you who might not know, Wing Chun's historical mythology has been made into films in the past, with one of the most recognized in the martial arts community (and beyond) being the Prodigal Son, and Sammo Hung and Yuen Biu both reprise their roles in this new re-imagining of the Wing Chun mythology!  Also, a lesser known fact is that the real life counterpart to the character that I play, Chan Wah Shun,( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chan_Wah-shun) is the real life teacher of my teacher's teacher, driving home the fact that I'm acting as a historical figure that is in my direct martial art linage!

In addition to playing the role of Chan Wah Shun, I was also asked to be the Wing Chun kung fu advisor (due to my background as a choreographer and Wing Chun instructor), so besides having my hand in making sure the Wing Chun terminology used in the scrīpt is correct and helping with the fights that involved the use of Wing Chun, there are a few less obvious things that I did on this show which might be of interest if you watch this series.  For example, at the end of the opening credits, you might notice a computer animated fellow doing some Wing Chun moves. Those were my movements in cartoon form, lol.  In addition to that, you will notice that during Wong Wah Bo's (Sammo Hung) lessons to Leung Bik (Nic Tse), a series of Wing Chun techniques are demonstrated by anonymous men in black... look closely, the Wing Chun guy is me

In terms of my experience on this, I would have to say that in spite of minor difficulties, I rank this among my top 3 favorite projects that I have done up till now.  It's analogous to being at summer camp with your friends and family, where the camp project was to make a kick ass television series about kung fu.

Below are some photos that was taken on the set in China... enjoy!

對詠春拳普遍的誤解認為它是女孩創造發展的,專供女孩練的功夫。實際上,詠春拳是不限性別、種族甚至飲食習慣的一種功夫。詠春拳因其簡單、高效以及技術和概念上的直截了當而成為練習武術的首選拳法之一。

我已經學習詠春拳好多年,在芝加哥我父親開的武館裏也教了不少人這門功夫。可以想見,當這部以詠春拳為主題的電視劇找我演其中一個角色Chan Wah Shun (又叫Money Changer Wah)時,我有多麽興奮。這部戲裏還有洪金寶(Wong Wah Bo)和元彪(Leung Jan)。有些人可能不了解,有些電影專門拍過詠春拳的歷史及發展故事,武術界甚至跨行的人都知道的、最出名的電影是《敗家仔》。洪金寶和元彪在這部戲裏重新演繹了其中的兩個角色,再現詠春拳的神話!更少人知道的是,我的角色Chan Wah Shun (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chan_Wah-shun)在現實中教過我師父的師父,我扮演的是在武術族譜中相同派系的老前輩!

除了演出角色之外,我還是這部劇的詠春拳顧問(我本來就是武術指導和詠春拳教練)。我需要確認對詠春拳的各種說法正確,還要看用到詠春拳的打鬥是不是對路。我做了一些比較隱蔽的事情,你看連續劇時可能會感興趣。如在開場結尾時,有個電腦制作的人在打詠春拳,那是我穿著動畫衣拍的,lol。還有,當Wong Wah Bo's (洪金寶)在教Leung Bik(謝霆鋒)的時候,一個黑衣人做示範打了一套詠春拳…仔細看,那個家夥就是我

這些經歷十分有趣,除了遇到一些小小的困難之外,這是至今為止我拍過最愛的片子前三名。有點象跟朋友和家人去夏令營,只是把去夏令營換成了拍攝跟功夫有關的了不起的電視劇。

拍戲時我拍了一些照片…看看!

Haha, fortunately no other masters of any kind showed up to challenge me in anyway, but I'm sure a few members of the cast and crew wanted to kick my (and my accomplices') buttocks for some of the pranks we pulled during our off times, lol!

you are chao chin wah! hopefully with your background you can do more accurate stuff. wing chun was my love for quite some years... i always wondered how wing chun would fare in UFC type stuff. i think with grappling/ground fighting skills, it might do quite well - the system is unbelievably efficient. some jiujitsu type does need to make it a bit more rounded though.
