'''Kenneth Chung''' (鐘萬年 / Chung Maan-Nin) is a teacher of Wing Chun [[Kung Fu]]. He is the premiere student of the late Leung Sheung, one of the top 3 students of [[Ip Man]]. His wing chun emphasizes structure and relaxation over speed and strength, resulting in a soft yet powerful force.<ref>Eckert, Kris (1992). "[http://www.wingchunonline.com/Wingchun/Library_article_A8.html The Soft Force of Wing Chun]", ''Inside Kung-Fu'', February 1992.</ref><ref>Raamsdonk, Ray van (1995). "[http://www.ocwingchun.com/kenneth-chung-path-wing-chun/ Lessons from Ken Chung]".</ref>

In 2003, the City of [[Cupertino, California]] proclaimed August 23 to be Kenneth Chung Day in acknowledgment of his service to the Cupertino and San Francisco Bay Area communities and to the thousands of Wing Chun students he has taught throughout the United States.<ref>Cupertino, California, press release (2003). "[http://www.northeastwingchun.com/RWC_files/pages/readings/Ken_Chung_Day.htm City of Cupertino Proclaims Kenneth Chung Day] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090106035251/http://www.northeastwingchun.com/RWC_files/pages/readings/Ken_Chung_Day.htm |date=2009-01-06 }}".</ref>
