Wing Chun – Wing Tsun Praha – Ving Tsun Praha
Looking for the genuine Wing Chun / Wing Tsun Praha / Ving Tsun Kung Fu?
There are many different name variants: Wing Chun Praha, Ving Tsun Praha, Wing Tsun Praha. Which one is correct?
It’s not Wing Tsun Praha.
The original way to write Wing Chun is Wing Chun Praha or Ving Tsun Praha, not Wing Tsun Praha. Grandmaster Ip Man would use the variant with the city name Prague “Wing Chun Praha” or “Ving Tsun Praha” but not Wing Tsun Praha as school name.
Also, in the phonetic system of Cantonese used in Hong Kong, Ving Tsun Praha or Wing Chun Praha would be used and not Wing Tsun Praha.
Therefore, our Tao Chan Wing Chun Organisation uses Wing Chun Praha variant as school name.
