There
are several different lineages or families of Wing Chun School -
though they are all members of the same great martial family, they
frequently have different views or variations on techniques. The
lineage taught by Master Chan is that of Leung Jan, which is sometimes
referred to as Ip Man lineage (one of the most well known and skilled
Masters of this line). Below is the line of Master Chan's Wing Chun
lineage, based upon accounts given by Master Ip Ching and Grand
Master Ip Man.

There are many more students and masters
that do not appear on these lists - but these "family trees"
should help you to understand where the Leung Jan lineage has come
from, and how it has been passed on from generation to generation,
from Master to student, down to Master Chan, and on to his students
and disciples.
