Historically, the lineage is attributed to the Buddhist nun Wumei (Ng Mui) of the Southern Shaolin Temple, who designed the system for her student, Yim Wing-chun. This instructional program is presented by Master Chen Nian'en, a distinguished 4th-generation successor of the Huang Feihong lineage and a master of the Southern styles. Master Chen brings a wealth of scholarly and practical experience to this presentation, ensuring that the historical heritage and technical purity of the Yongchun lineage are preserved. Historically centered in Foshan, this style has produced legendary masters such as Ip Man and Bruce Lee. The routine is celebrated for its 'Mighty and Swift' energy and its focus on functional martial skill, providing a scientific pathway to mastering the art's internal depth and tactical efficiency in close-range engagement. The choreography is a masterclass in 'Cohesive Choreography,' where movements are executed with such speed and power that they appear to be a continuous flow of energy. Master Chen Nian'en provides a meticulous breakdown of the forms, emphasizing the 'Short Bridge and Narrow Horse' (Duan Qiao Zhai Ma) mechanics. A defining feature of this Form & Applications is the principle of 'Bent Arm Staying at the Middle' (Qu Shou Liu Zhong), which ensures the practitioner's centerline is always protected.
