The Stanford University Wing Chun Student Association (SUWCSA) is a formal Stanford University Student Activity. Our club is dedicated to passing down the pure kung fu tradition of our wing chun kuen ancestors: From Ng Mui and Yim Wing Chun through Yip Man, Leung Sheung, and Kenneth Chung (Chung Maannin). The club is also open to members of the surrounding community.
Wing Chun Kung Fu's roots can be traced from the Southern Shaolin Temple in China to the late Grand Master Yip Man (shown "playing" the wooden dummy, right). It is one of the few martial arts that attributes its origins to a woman. Although popularized as Bruce Lee's "mother art," the practice of Wing Chun remains substantially different from his Jeet Kune Do. Taught as a predominantly internally-oriented (nei lu) style stressing technique, sensitivity, and subtle awareness instead of brute force, Wing Chun provides practical self-defense for men and woman and a means for developing the mind and spirit.
The instructor Eddie Oshins is a direct student of wing chun sifu Kenneth Chung (Chung Maannin) since 1984. He is also a Visiting Scholar at the physics department of Stanford University where he does scientific research on quantum psychology. One of Eddie's projects is his work on the Physics of Tao™, involving psychospinors, self-referential motion™, mind-body interactions, and Chinese martial arts.
Eddie is looking for corporate sponsors to fund these studies. Those interested should visit his Quantum Psychology Project® web site for more information.
A list of his past talks on the Physics of Tao™, depth poetry, ... and speaking fees is available at Quantum Psychology Project®
