How is Moy Yat Ving Tsun Kung Fu different from other martial arts?
Most martial arts are practiced as sports, and students of these arts are required to demonstrate their fighting abilities in competition. Ving Tsun, on the other hand, is not a sport, and students in Moy Yat schools aren’t expected to compete in tournaments. While it’s typical for other martial arts schools to charge fees for rank promotions, there are no belt ranks or achievement tests in Moy Yat Kung Fu schools. In contrast to the strict military-style hierarchy and protocol common in other martial arts, students generally interact in a relaxed and informal way at schools in the Moy Yat family.
