Foshan City Yong Chun Quan Research Association
Since the "open-door" policy was implemented in China since 1978, Foshan's
Yong Chun Quan is slowly gaining attention internationally. The better
known are Lun Jia and Pan Nam because their students have published articles
concerning them in the West. Lun Jia learned from Yip Man when he was in
Foshan, and Pan Nam learned from Zhao Jiu, the brother of Zhao Yun in Hong
Kong.

1821, Foshan is also the home of Hong Quan and Hong Sheng Cai Li Fo. Foshan
The Foshan Chin Woo Athletic Association was established in 1921, and its
training hall was erected in 1936. Chin Woo was not active due to the period
of political instability in China prior to the open-door policy, but it
was re-activated in 1986. With the aid of the Foshan Governments Wush
Committee in 1993, Liang Guang Man has established more of less his own
personal Foshan City Yong Chun Quan Research Association. Due to his low
status in the Yong Chun Family Tree and political association, he did not
gain any kind of support from the Yong Chun community in Foshan.
