Lok Yiu
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lok Yiu (駱耀) was a disciple of Grandmaster Yip Man in the discipline of Wing Chun. Master Lok Yiu Fun died in February 2006 at the age of 83 at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Hong Kong after a short battle with illness.
He started teaching private students in 1959. He opened his first school on Kay Lung Street (基隆街 in Sham Shui Po) in 1961. In 1966, the school was moved to 659 Shanghai Street. SiFu Lok Yiu also had two other branch schools, one located at 50 Nga Tsin Wai road and the other in Wanchai, Hong Kong. In his 30 years teaching career, he had over a thousand students. His To-Dai, Wilhelm Blech, continues to teach Master Lok's refined art to hundreds of students throughout Europe, through his ELYWCIMAA [1](EUROPEAN LOK YIU WING CHUN INTERNATIONAL MARTIAL ART ASSOCIATION).
He has twin sons Lok Kwen Kwong (駱勁剛) and Lok Kwen Sang (駱勁生).
