Wing Chun Indonesia

wingchun-indonesiaBuilding Indonesia Wing Chun is not easy, not just morale support from Wing Chun lovers in Indonesia, but needed time, energy, mind and money. This is what Brotherhood of Wing Chun has felt so far in running its missions, introducing and spreading Ip Man Wing Chun in this beloved homeland.

In this world may be only BoWC that want to teach true Ip Man Wing Chun to anybody without looking at skin color, social status, religion, poor or rich and without fee, instead using own money (no profit). Many people often ask us, how can you do it? teaching without any fee? and many more different questions. They didn’t believe that in this time there is someone who will do such things

These are the reasons that why we do what we do;

  1. For us, learning and teaching Ip Man Wing Chun, are hobby and morale obligation to preserve the tradition, art and culture,which can be useful to modern life (selfish and always link everything with money or materials).
  2. Bitter experiences from Brotherhood of Wing Chun’s founders or seniors. Before BoWC was established, BoWC’s seniors have learnt from false Wing Chun teacher. The mistakes were not only copied movements from the internet, always changing technics, teacher’s recognition learnt from many Wing Chun teachers (even from Ip Man’s student) but the fatal mistake was money fraud. These experiences were bitter experiences that couldn’t be forgotten by BoWC. These are very precious experiences for us to keep on learning, growing and spreading true Ip Man Wing Chun. We don’t want these cases happened to others.Many people are using Ip Man Wing Chun phenomenal to gain profit in many ways.
  3. The information that shi fu Martin Kusuma got when attending world Wing Chun conference in Foshan, November 2012 (lihat Link & Video), that was hel by Ving Tshun Athletic Association (VTAA). That time, shi fu Martin heard rumors that in the world, Indonesia has the worst name. As an Indonesian, shi fu Martin was surprised, embarrassed and didn’t believe the rumors, with big curiousity, shi fu Martin asked this problem to GM. Samuel Kwok (also attended the conference) at dinner in a small restaurant, across Sim Wing Chun Club (Lun Kai Wing Chun school). GM Samuel Kwok told that there was an Indonesian from Surabaya opened Wing Chun school in America who claimed that they were the true Wing Chun, greater than Ip Man Wing Chun and they came from one of shaolin’s banner. This story was stirred in martial arts’ world then investegation was conducted by some people who cared about Wing Chun (one of them is shi fu Sergio), he even went to Surabaya and Malang (lihat Link). The end was predictable that the stories were told and ranted based on lie.The only purpose was money.

From few things above, We, BoWC invite all Wing Chun lovers in Indonesia to learn the lessons from our experiences so that our conducts and deeds must be in accordance with martial arts etchic and morals. Honesty is also the key to learn and to teach Wing Chun. There are just too many dishonesty in our daily life in our lovely homeland. As martial arts practitioners, we must know manner, decorum and good characters, to give fine examples specialy in martial arts society and generally in society. Rise up and proud of Indonesia in the world.
