Good thread you guys...interesting style!. I would love to see more of the Monkey combat usage...I do a derivative of Hop Gar and I'm 6 foot four 185 pounds cut...My great grand father was 6 foot 4 and 150 pounds when he won a bronze medal for boxing in the world war 2 olympics and he was in the navy...that reach for a tall fit person is impeccable against the average joe...most people are about 5 foot ten... Hop Gar long fists fit my frame perfectly. What yall wrote about the monkey is good for small guys sounds like the oppossitte of what I train, and that really intrigues me!.

Hi guys.


Can someone tell me how "Ngo Cho Kun" is pronounced?


Thanx

[Piercinghammer]

I'm pretty sure its like.... No so Kune.

so I've been told.

[wu-ji]

"ng" requires a nasal voice. so "ngo" is pronounced like "go" with a nasal voise. It means "five". The Japanese pronunciation of "go" is identical to it. This sound is not available in English. Some Fujian dialects pronounce it as "go". So, if it is hard, "go" is find (like in "go away"). "Cho" is pronounced like "joe" but with "ch" instead of "j", a bit lighter. "kun" is like "goon" but with a "k" instead of a "g"

...My great grand father was 6 foot 4 and 150 pounds when he won a bronze medal for boxing in the world war 2 olympics....

What WW2 Olympics?
There were no Olympic Games held during either WW1 (1916) or WW2 (1940 & 1944).

Thanx for the replies so far, guys.

You will find more info if you go to the board I mentioned above. NCKers are congregating there.

5 ancestor Eng Chun?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anybody hear of Ngo Cho Wing Chun USA Group?
The emblem at the bottom of the pic looks like the same Ngo Cho Kun Eng Chun from Indonesia but with name "Ngo Cho Wing Chun USA Group".

5 ancestor Wing Chun anyone?

[hskwarrior]

i mean really! you have a wing chun area to place this mess.

[taokum]

Sorry but are there any Ngo Cho practicers here?

[taokum]

This is the same teacher brought up in the Ngo Cho thread back in 2007. I hear lots of people say Lin has Lo Han Kung Fu mixed with Vikoga wing chun. Its clear that from Ngo Cho Kun that one of the 5 ancestors was Lo Han. In Indo styles are mixed, so maybe Lin sees nothing wrong with making up stuff and telling as truth.

There are, of course, other teachers from different lineages. However, I don't know about them enough to recommend their instructions. These include (there could be more):

- Bonifacio Lim (Beng Kiam)- NJ area
- Ben Asuncion (Beng Kiam) - LA, CA area
- Mark Wiley (Bengkiam) - CO area if I am not mistaken.
- Jose Parman (I forgot) - San Jose, CA area
- John Graham (Chee Kim Tong) - Mobile, AL (more of his students in AL area)
- Kenneth Lim in VA area. He advertises more as a Wing Chun and Hokkian Eng Chun styles, but one of his teachers is from Gui In Lam lineage.
- Kam Lee (A Malaysian lineage that I forgot) in FL
- Lo Ban Teng group as represented by Lo Siauw Gok's lineage is ready to start teaching in USA. Lo Hak Lun, Lo Siauw Gok's son states that hopefully it will happen in less than a year.

It is unethical for me to comment on Bonifacio

The noise about black flag wing chun is getting clear but why is Ngo Cho Eng Chun taking a hit because of Lin?

[David Jamieson]

dman these wing chun fools and their spreading their stupid political arguments across the whole forums. get out of here with this junk.

you have your own dang forum to go and bicker about your 3 sets, two weapons and a dummy.

but seriously

[hskwarrior]

I agree. If we wanted to know anything about wing chun, we would visit the wing chun section of this whole forum. but, no one cares about the drama in your system here. this here is for Hung Kuen and Choy Lee Fut types. so flap your "wing"s chun back to the wing chun section and bicker about your issues there.

see ya wouln't wanna be ya! don't let let the door hitcha where the good lord splitcha.
