In 1966, when
Grand Master Liu retired from his post as Chairman of the Civil Defence Force
in The Republic of China, he accepted twelve disciples to pass down his
skills. He named his school Wutan. Most of these disciples, including my own
Master, were already highly-skilled martial artists before commencing their
studies with him. Some had been teaching in their own right for a long time
and consequently brought all their students with them to WUTAN. Grand Master Liu Yun Qiao passed his skills
down to many disciples, and many of these masters have spread their knowledge
and skill throughout the world. One of Grand Master Liu's favourite
disciples was Master Wu Song Fa, who was
already a very skilful and proficient martial artist before he was accepted
as a student of Grand Master Liu. He trained under strict supervision for six
hours a day for many years before Grand Master Liu Yun Qiao finally
accredited Master Wu as having mastered the arts of Wutan. He was subsequently instructed to
return home in order to promote the teaching of Wutan, the school that was
founded by Master Liu Yun Qiao, Here in UK Wutan is also very well
received by the public who love authentic traditional Chinese martial arts.
In 1986, Grand Master Liu Yun Qiao
grated the school the permission to use Wutan as it name. Many students including some
instructors of other martial arts system have come to Sifu They to learn some
of his skill, many passed on the knowledge they learnt by adding into their
own system. Majority prefer the tradition Chinese martial arts they learn to
be as close as possible to the one that have been scrutiny by history of 1997 Sifu They feel
that many of the students has proved their commitment to the arts of WUTAN
and are ready to move another level up. 12 were selected as formal student of
Master Wu Song Fua. Wutan is now the Students of
Wutan are first taught the systems which were brought into Wutan by the
twelve disciples. The curriculum of Wutan International UK's Branch was
divided into internal and external systems. The internal system embraces the
teaching of : Tai Chi, Pa
Kua and Hsing-I, whereas the
external system includes both the Northern and Southern fighting styles such
as: Wing
Chun, Choi Lei fut, Praying Mantis, kickboxing(competition
Kung Fu) and 18 weapons systems. Students who have
a proven record of being well-disciplined and of good character will be
taught the superior system that Grand Master Liu professed. These
restrictions are important and necessary, as the systems passed down by Grand
Master Liu are too dangerous to be in the hands of the irresponsible. The
degree of their efficiency can be measured by the responsible positions that
some of Great Grand Master Li's disciples held. The closed-door disciple Grand Master Liu
was appointed as a bodyguard in chief, responsible for protecting the premier
of The Republic Of China, President Chiang Kai Shek, and his successors. The
eldest disciple, Fou Tien Kok was appointed as a teacher of martial arts and
as bodyguard to Pu Yi, the last Emperor of China. Another disciple Li Chian
Wu was appointed head martial arts trainer for Chairman Mao Tsi Tung, the
first chairman of the People's Republic Of Out of the
