Introduction of Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon
Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon is a modern
Chinese Martial Art founded in 1981 by Grandmaster Yuet-sing AU, Black Belt
10th Dan. With the spirit and skills, students are trained to be
proactive and unflinching in the face of challenges.
Heng, or
Perseverance, embodies unceasing endeavour, stalwartness, and patience.
Achievement in pursuit of any knowledge comes with a persistent and
proactive attitude in analysing and synthesising. Martial Art studies are no
exception. In practising Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon, perseverance and
self-confidence are emphasised in overcoming both physical and psychological
weaknesses.
Yue, or
Universe, stands for boundlessness. It also symbolizes wisdom and knowledge.
A broad mind and far-sightedness are needed to accept differences and hence
new thinking. That is seen in the Grandmaster Au’s development of Heng Yue
Yen Long Kwon on the basis of science, philosophy, dynamics, physiology and
various kinds of martial art skills, plus his constant desire and hard work
to refine and evolve the technique.
Yen, or
benevolence, is the embodiment of kindness, care and sympathy.
Long is
righteousness, the best as well as gentlemanliness. It is also the symbol of
China.
Kwon
is martial arts. It is a combination of skills, wisdom and body strength. At
the same time it is also a demonstration of valour and
peace.
In terms of skills, Heng Yue Yen Long
Kwon is a soft yet powerful form of martial art. It has no superficial or
flowery moves, nor rigid forms and styles. Its simple, light and sharp
fighting skills, together with proper timing, strength and speed, enables
one to attack and defend with maximum efficiency. With the scientific use of
all parts of the body, plus Grandmaster AU’s over 30 years’ experience and
extensive knowledge of martial arts, Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon has evolved into
an all-rounded martial art style.
On top of the traditional skills which
include punches, kicks, elbows, knees, locks and throws, there are stances
uniquely designed by Grandmaster Au, i.e. Attack Stance, Fighting Stance,
Lucky Stance and Flying Shadow Stance, which allow the delivery of kicks and punches simultaneously
and interchangeably, thus optimising the effectiveness of the move, and is a
break-through in martial art arena. The Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon
“Tempo-Training” helps the students to time properly each move, and to judge
correctly the most suitable time to accomplish effective action. An
effective attack or counter-attack does not necessarily mean the same
high-speed all through. Given training, students will master attacks at
various tempo.
Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon training also
enables one to fight his opponents at all ranges, i.e. no matter they are at
a “contact distance”, a “close distance”, a “mid-length distance”, a “long
distance”, or even an “out-of-combat distance”.
We stress observation, judgement,
analysis and tactics. Practice and theories are the two “musts” in our
training.

Our
Goal And Missions
Goal
To
carry forward the spirit of Chinese Martial Arts and to propagate the
culture so that more people will understand the nature of marital art as
an art of attack and defence that combines strength, skills, wisdom,
resourcefulness, staunchness, litheness and beauty, thereby realizing the
benefits of practising martial arts.
Missions
1.
To impart the skills of Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon. With our
professionalism and good faith, we will enable our students to apply
effectively the philosophy and techniques of Heng Yue Yen Long Kwon to
building up vigorous health and high capacity for self-defence, to foster
a courageous and persistent spirit, to increase their abilities and
efficiency in work, and to make continuous progress in both martial arts
and their career (or study).
2.
To propagate the culture of Chinese Martial Arts in order that more
people will be able to understand their encompassing magnificence with
rich yet abstruse essence and philosophy. Practising Chinese Martial Arts
can be a form of cultivation and refinement of one’s character and
spirit. It can also be an experience in challenging and overcoming
hardships with a dauntless spirit. A regular practice of martial arts with
a clear goal and perseverance can strengthen one’s psychological
constitution and bring out a full confidence and optimism in life. In
terms of skills, the delivery of each and every punch, chop and kick, and
the adoption of strategies of attack or defence, advance or retreat,
action or standstill, speediness or slowness, firmness or flexibility, and
feints or ambushes are both a recondite scholarship and art. Given
training, a student of martial arts can get a comprehensive exercise in
his/her central nervous system, respiratory system , digestive system,
heart and other internal organs and apparatus, as well as skeleton,
muscles, joints and ligaments. It will also increase his/her speed,
stamina, agility and improve his/her coordination. In face of danger,
he/she will be able to exert his/her skills instinctively and protect
him/herself. This is precisely the unique merit of martial arts as opposed
to other sport activities.
3.
With and open mind, we will continue to study, research, and blaze
new trails to improve our martial art skills, to inject some new life into
the traditional Chinese Martial Arts and take further steps to carry them
forward. Moreover, we will actively propagate Chinese Martial arts, create
new modes of teaching them, and facilitate their scientific and
entrepreneurial development, socialization and internationalization. As
Chinese, we should also regard ourselves as “Global Villagers” and
take up the mission of presenting Chinese Martial Arts to people from all
over the world as our common assets.
