Andreas Hoffman studied directly from Grandmaster Wai Yan from 1986 until 1996, when He inherited the title of Grand Master, but this claim has been objected. Today Hoffman disseminates his family lineage of Chi Sim Weng Chun/Weng Chun Kuen world-wide. Chi Sim Weng Chun is an offshoot of Yong Chun that traces its origins to the Shaolin temple via the Red boat. Linage Cheng Kwong passed the Chi Sim Weng Chun art on to Andreas Hoffman with his Sifu’s approval, Hoffman later went on to research Chi Sim Weng Chun with his Si Gung, Way Yan and Way Yan’s Si Suk, Pak Cheung. Pak Cheung lived outside of Fatsaan. In 1995, Andreas Hoffman was given a certificate recognizing him as the successor of Chi Sim Weng Chun/ Jee Shim Ving Tsun martial arts from Siu Lum. In more recent times, Sifu Hoffman has contacted and trained with the successor of the Tang family, uniting all three main families in much the same way as Grand Master Way Yan. Hoffman today preserves the art of his teachers and ancestors throughout Europe with a strong organization of over 3000 members. Books Andreas Hoffman has one weng chun book released in English Weng Chun Kung Fu- Eternal Spring Fist of Shaolin.
