Mission
The Lee Shing Family of Martial Artists were the first representatives to promote Wing Chun in England due to the loyalty and respect held for Ip Man and his methods of teaching.
Grandmaster Lee Shing passed on his life long learning experiences to very few, and it is with his blessing that I pass to you some of his personal aims and objectives, which he held close to his heart.
I was always taught to have respect for every Martial Artist, and it is my goal to share some of my own memories to help you gain a better insight into my personal ‘reason’ to continue practising Wing Chun after some forty-plus years.
With respect
Joseph Man
