Grandmaster Ip Ching
7th July 1936 - 25th January 2020
Ip Ching (full name Ip Hok- Ching) a Chinese Grandmaster of Wing Chun as taught to him by his father Great Grandmaster Ip Man has sadly passed away, aged 83 years, on the morning of Sunday 25th January 2020.
His passing is a great loss to the world of Wing Chun and he will be greatly missed. I am most devastated. I have not only lost a Sifu, I have also lost someone who was a father figure. It is as I have lost my father a second time.
As a Master of the Wing Chun System his skills were phenomenal. As a man, well his name conveys it all “Jing” meaning righteous, straight, direct. Grandmaster Ip Ching’s character embodied all these qualities and more. Other than the Wing Chun it was these qualities that drew me to him.
He was a man of honour and respect. Everyone that knew him or met him will reiterate this. He conducted himself in the manner in which a sifu should. He was humble but firm. Generous with his knowledge but also discerning. A real man. If he liked you he would let you know and permit you to draw close. If he did not like you he did not push you away but kept his distance. Always respectful and courteous. What you saw is what you got.
He has left a tremendous legacy of how a sifu and master should be. I hope that all his students continue to uphold that legacy in the true spirit of how he has taught them.
And I hope that all of us, around the world, who represent our Grandmaster Ip Ching and his Wing Chun stand together to continue to promote and preserve this system of combat.
Our deepest condolences are expressed to his immediate family and his brother Si Bak Ip Chun. We especially give our condolences to SiMo ( Grandmaster Ip Ching’s wife).
We also share our sadness with his students and friends in Hong Kong and around the world.
Our trips to Hong Kong will never be the same.
ALL DONATIONS WILL BE GIVEN TO GRANDMASTER IP CHING’S WIDOW AS A GIFT OF SUPPORT.
