Wing Chun is one of the world's youngest Kung Fu styles and the only one founded by a woman.
That woman was Ng Mui (or Ng Mei), a Buddhist nun of China's famous Shaolin Temple.
Ng Mui was recognised as one of the top five martial artists in China during the early 1700s.
Although highly proficient in the existing styles of kung fu, she felt it was possible to devise a more effective fighting method which did not rely so much on brute strength or take too long to learn.
The art later took the name of her student, Yim Wing Chun. Wing Chun translates as 'everlasting springtime'.
