Golden Harvest Wing Chun Manila


We are stepping into 2011 with a whole new idea of about Wing Chun this year and how to get it out into the public. Since MMA is being considered a style or discipline of martial arts itself, its has captivated people's attention and drawn them away from the roots of "traditional" arts. While being very effective as a competitive fighting art, the certain spiritual aspect of a martial art is lost in the mix of tap-outs, take downs and ground-and-pounds.

Prior to late 2008, before the Hong Kong blockbuster Ip Man was released, most people heard the words Wing Chun and thought "wing what??". Now that the Ip Man movie hype has come and gone, the fact of the matter is that Wing Chun is still not a popular martial art......yet.  Our goal this year is to do as much as we can to show people what Wing Chun is and what Wing Chun is really about; as a practice, discipline and martial art.

This year we are taking the gloves off and not holding back anymore. Wing Chun is a beautiful, effective and ingenious martial art that is not given the recognition and credit it truly deserves. We are in no way trying to "commercialize" the art, like what has happened to Karate, Taekwondo and Muay Thai. Rather, we aim to preserve the spiritual aspects, discipline of Wing Chun while bringing it to the attention of the main stream media here in Manila.


For us here at Golden Harvest, this is fresh new year and a good time to start on new foot, with a new outlook and attitude about a dream or goal that might have become just another "failed new years resolution." Through this whole promotional project, we are finding that the unchanging maxim of "you get out what you put in" is TRUE; no matter the time, circumstance or situation.

This year maybe your year to start taking your goal a bit more seriously and just go for something full on. If you head and heart are in the right place, then things have a really funny way of working in your favor. There are no such things as coincidences, they are merely un-seen causes that we create by unconscious actions.
