Tresa Man, eldest daughter to The late Grandmaster Joseph Man of Jun Mo Wing Chun Martial Arts Association and 3rd Generation to Grandmaster Ip Man, recalls how she overcame criticism by continuing to spread her father’s WingChun teachings after his death.

Tresa Man (eldest daughter to the late Grandmaster Joseph Man of Jun Mo Wing Chun Martial Arts Association and 3rd Generation to Grandmaster Ip Man):

“What do you fight for? I ask myself this question every day”

“Daughter to Wing Chun Grandmaster Joseph Man. I fly my father’s banner with honor and respect. Promoting the growth of Chinese culture and martial arts. “

Tresa Man (eldest daughter to the late Grandmaster Joseph Man of Jun Mo Wing Chun Martial Arts Association and 3rd Generation to Grandmaster Ip Man):

“With my family we fought to modernize the role of women in an industry dominated by men and I was determined. Determined to show what the next generation of women in Wing Chun could accomplish. And I felt unstoppable Standing side by side with my father to unite different martial arts communities. I had found the way.”

Tresa Man (eldest daughter to the late Grandmaster Joseph Man of Jun Mo Wing Chun Martial Arts Association and 3rd Generation to Grandmaster Ip Man):

“But then he died. Alone. Lost. I fell into darkness. Fighting with my self-doubt”

“I can do this. I will not fail. I will prove them wrong. I know I’m ready. I can do this. I will never stop!”

“Loyalty. Honor. Respect. Compassion. Morality. Kindness. Courtesy. Leadership.”

Tresa Man (eldest daughter to the late Grandmaster Joseph Man of Jun Mo Wing Chun Martial Arts Association and 3rd Generation to Grandmaster Ip Man):

Eight simple yet profound words handed down from my father, reminding me that this isn’t my fight, this is OUR fight. Jun Mo wasn’t built to continue his legacy, but to help all who practice transform themselves through the art of Wing Chun.

Thank you, Dad, now it’s time for me to carve out my own legacy. My name is Tresa Man And this is my fight.
