Siu Nim Tao Sequence in Wing Chun Kung Fu - Sifu Nima King

Beginner Wing Chun students can use these videos to learn and memorize the shapes and sequence of Wing Chun's first empty hand Form 'Siu Nim Tao' which translates to 'Little Idea' or 'Small Thought'.

This sequence is as it was taught by the late Grandmaster Chu Shong Tin.

Chu Shong Tin lived with Ip Man for 5 years (1950-1955) and was coined the title ' the king of siu nim tao' by his master Ip Man. He was a legend in the world of Wing Chun (in particular the internal method of wing chun) and spent 64 years passing it on full-time before he passed away in 2014.

Nima King practiced under him in Hong Kong for 9 years and established Mindful Wing Chun under CST's guidance. Nima is also on the board of Directors for the 'Chu Shong Tin Alumni' which is a group of senior students of CST that were hand picked by him to establish the Alumni and to uphold and continue his teachings and Wing Chun legacy after he passed away.

Grandmaster Chu Shong Tin was a very humble and low-key Wing Chun Master therefore its only after we began putting his videos online, that people started to hear about him. In fact, majority of the main Wing Chun teachers (of the Ip Man lineage) who began practice in the 50s and early 60s (apart of Leung Sheung and Lok Yiu) were trained by CST even-though they were Ip Man's students. This is due to CST being the most snr and main teacher of Ip Man's school in those days.
