Leung Jan was born in 1826 and was a bone and herbal doctor. He is one of the most famous practioners in Wing Chun history.
Leung Jan is said to have had over 300 undefeated fights, all documented in the local village in Foshan, China. What is striking to me is the similarites between Leung Jan and Chu Shong Tin, both being bone doctors, and legends in their own right. It is my view that Leung Jan also had the Nim Lik skill.
It is said that Leung Jan took a very long Wing Chun form and developed it into 3 seperate forms, Sil Lim Tao, Chum Kiu, and Bil Jee. Making the system easier to learn.
