One of the many virtues that separates Yee's Hung Ga Kung Fu from your local McDojo is our documented Hung Ga lineage. We take pride in being the 5th generation from the legendary Chinese Master, Wong Fei Hung. Our style's roots and origins date back to the 18th century and we are recognized worldwide for teaching the Tang Fong Hung Ga lineage.
Tang Fong
(1874-1955)
Tang Fong
Grandmaster Tang Fong was born in Sam Soy village, Gwan Dong province in 1874. During his youth he learned Hung Ga from Sifu Wong Yau and Sifu Yuen Yin, and also studied Mau Shan, a form of folk sorcery. He later learned from Wong Fei Hung, completing the orthodox version of Hung Ga and becoming Wong’s close disciple. Tang Fong was also a participant in the Luk Sin theater incident. In this famous incident Lam Sai Wing, Tang Fong, Tang Yee, Gwan Kwan, and a few of Lam's disciples became trapped by a rival instructor at the theater. The instructor
led an attack with about 80 men, while Lam, Tang and his colleagues had fewer than 10. They sustained a few minor injuries. The rivalside had a count of 80 people sent to the hospital. Tang, his brother Tang Yee and Lam Sai Wing left town to avoid trouble. Lam went to the Gwang Dong/Gwong Sai border and Tang Fong went to Singapore to work as a miner. After Wong Fei Hung was quite old, Tang Fong returned to Gwang Dong and he and his brother Tang Yee opened a school called “Yee Yung Tong” (Chivalrous Brave Hall), After Wong's Death, Madame
Mok Gwai Lan, who was Wong's Wife, taught an all women's class at Tang's school.

Gee Sim Sim Si and Hung Hei-Goon have been acknowledge as the founders of the Hung Ga Kuen System. However, due to the lack of evidence of their existence we recognize them, but do not include them as part of our lineage.
