It's known that Yip Man's Wing Chun forms in Foshan were more or less similar to those of Yiu Choi/YKS, and that he presumably simplified the forms after coming to Hong Kong.
So when did he change the forms? Did the change occur in his later Foshan years shortly before coming to Hong Kong? Did he simplify the forms on the fly when he first started teaching Leung Sheung and Lok Yiu? Is the Leung Bik story real after all, and the Hong Kong forms are the "Leung Bik" version?
Would like to hear your thoughts and speculations.
