Shum Lung

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shum Lung (Chinese: 岑能; pinyin: Cén Néng; Yale Cantonese: Sam4 Nang4; also transliterated "Sum Nung") was a student of Yuan Kay-shan (阮奇山) in the discipline of Wing Chun.

In 1947, he taught Wing Chun at Guangzhou Machinery Union (廣州機器工會). The next year, he opened a herbal clinic on Daisun(?) Street (大新街) and ran a martial art school. Many Wing Chun practitioners in Guangzhou nowadays descend from this branch.
