Huo Yuanjia (1868-1909), born in Tianjin, Huo became one of the most famous martial
art heroes in modern Chinese History. Due to the oppressive state of China during the turn
of the century, by foreign occupation and the failing Ching Dynasty, Huo, like many patriots
was motivated to keep the honor of his people alive. His father was
a bodyguard for caravans traveling to the northeast, Huo trained
diligently on his family martial art skills.
During his life, Huo established the famous Ching Mo School in Shanghai. Inspired by the
conviction of their late teacher, many of his students opened
branches all over China.
One of his top disciples, Jew Lin Waar, was left in charge of the
Shanghai branch. It was here that Master Poon Mao Yung
graduated with top honors.
