Over the 40 years of the #ukwckfa, we have met with many repsected #wingchun teachers. Among them was a kind invitation by Master Nino Bernardo to meet his teacher, the late great Grandmaster Wong Shun Leung. ![]()
![]()
Sifu Bernado was very gracious and welcoming. His teacher was also very humble and as James Sinclair was not his student GM Wong Shun Leung asked James to simply call him 'Wong' and used the classic phrase 'm sai haak hay' not stand on ceremony around him. ![]()
![]()
GM Wong Shun Leung took time to chat and open up about his approach and was far too self depracating. He deserved his postion in the Art and garnered great loyalty and respect from his students. ![]()

Over the years the UKWCKFA have gone on to meet many of the world class students of GM Wong Shun Leung. Not all are famed for their humility and kind manner, but all act with ferocious defence of the Art they inherited. Something they are justifiably proud of.![]()
