Yim Wing-chun

Yim Wing-chun (嚴詠春) was the first Wing Chun master. A Shaolin nun abbot Ng Mui (五枚師太) developed the fighting skill especially for Yim to defend herself against a tyrant at the time. Yim passed the skill to her husband. Some said that Ng Mui didn't name her invention and it was Leung Bok-chau who named the fighting style after his wife and teacher (sifu).
