'''Moy Yat''' (梅逸) ([[June 28]], [[1938]] - [[January 23]], [[2001]]) was a Chinese sealmaker, Chinese artist and [[martial art]]ist, student of [[Yip Man]] since [[1957]].
He moved to New York City in [[1973]] and began teaching [[Ving Tsun]] in [[Brooklyn]].
His students are teaching in their own schools around the world.

"Since the death of Yip Man in 1972, there have been many who have tried to fill the void left by his absence. Where once there was only one Ving Tsun family, now there are many systems, each looking a little different from the rest, with most claiming to be “authentic” Ving Tsun (Wingtsun, Wing Chun, Weng Chun). This is not to say that all modern day Ving Tsun is bad or wrong. True Ving Tsun is what is simple, efficient, and agrees with the principles on which that system is based. Anything else is wasteful, unnecessary, and simply not Ving Tsun. Whether a system is true Ving Tsun or not should be based on these concepts. It is easy to teach someone techniques, but to use them properly requires an understanding of the principles in Ving Tsun, because it is based on principles, not techniques. The techniques are simply tools used to apply the principles. The methods are the means with which to teach those principles.
