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.
Wong Fei Hung
(1850-1933)
Wong Fei Hung
Young Wong Fei Hung began his martial arts training at the age of five. By the age of 13 he was already an accomplished martial artist and often went out with his father to demonstrate Kung Fu and sell medicine in different villages. On one occasion a famous teacher of another style, named Sifu Gwan Dai Hung was demonstrating on the same day. He became jealous because the Wong's had a much larger crowd watching their performance. Everytime he demonstrated his famous left handed fishing pole techniques the size of the crowd would be
unmatched. Sifu Gwan felt these two were invading his territory, so, with pole in hand he approached Master Wong Kay Ying and issued a challenge fight. Master Wong smiled and told his 13 year old son, Wong Fei Hung, to take up a pole and match skills with this Sifu using the Ng Long Ba Gwan Gwun (8 diagram pole techniques). Wong Fei Hung eliminated the challenger and the word spread far and wide. Wong Fei Hung even though still a child was a great fighter. This incident started young master Wong's fame.
Master Wong fei Hung later goes on to formulate the orthodox Hung System and the style's most famous set.

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.
