Everyone has different WC due to lineage and family sect history. No one person can say their WC is truly the original beginning WC. If one looks different, it may look sloppy to you because of personal bias of your WC being superior.

Wing chun comes from the "red boats" of cantonese opera. Yip man teached a modified system in Hong Kong, very different from what he learned (from Chan Wah Sun & Leung Bik) in Foshan, Guangzhou. Is a basic version of the cantonese wing chun. Yes he was the "first" public teacher. It doesn't mean "original". I Apologize for my english. At wingchunarchive site you can verify. Bye

Wing chun comes from the red boats of the cantonese opera and Grandmaster Yip Man was one of the most important teachers but not the ONLY one. He modified all the system because the many people needed to learn quickly, leaving many traditional aspects of this martial art. Yes was the first "public" teacher... You can check all the wing chun lineages in google. Apologize myself for my English, Bye

Darkmaster79, was there any public teacher of Ving (Wing) Tsun (Chun) before Yip Man? If his Wing Chun not 'original' than whose is?
-
And who was the first one to begin teaching Wing Chun publicly? Where at all does it come from? Can you tell me?
-
There are just many sects of Wing Chun. If your WC is differently done than others, of course you may leave with a bias saying that others do "horrible" with their WC.

Most coherent and knowledgeable comment yet. A breath of fresh air. Thanks.
Sigung teaches this form as a more internal version of Sil Lum Tao with a heavier emphasisi on Bil Gee (Thrusting Fingers). Before you assume that this is the form of a pretender. Understand that he is the Former World Heavyweight Kuo Shu Kickboxing Champion. A real fighter.

Not too familiar with the Ng lineage. However it seems that there are elements from Biu Gee that were incorporated in this form (darting fingers). Interesting application

Yes, our version of Sil Lum Tao makes extensive use of Biu Jee as well as numerous Chi Kung and internal principles.
