What Is Ming-Chuan

[FANWOO]

does anyone know if ming-chuan is a real martial art, or is it something made up ? i have tried to find the history on it,and the only current info is from a site in ireland where the sifu claims to be the only remaining grandmaster of the system. there breaking abilities are awsome if they are real. i know breaking is not a test of ones fighting abilities,but if these guys are for real, they have tremendous power. if they are not real then someone needs to expose their tricks. does ayone know ?

why don't you just head on down there and call them out on it?

I mean, does it matter?

You have to consider that all things being equal, one can surmise that the source of pretty much everything must be Kevin Bacon. :)

I knew of a Many Chuan in Florida that was headed by a Roger Jay Rogers, havent heard on Ming though.

sorry got no answer, but the name pops up a bit...must be something.

maybe its a description used elsehwere, seems mostly in europe. possibly regarding a style/sets that were produced durning Ming Era???

very possible its just someones name. possibly an old family style or a newer one for that matter.
