The Association is regarded as the largest professional association among all the martial arts organizations in the world.The WingTsun kung fu system is practiced worldwide by hundreds of thousands of martial-arts practitioners; many of those were already martial arts instructors themselves before they took on WingTsun.

These include instructors of the army and special security forces in a number of countries, such as the FBI and Marine Corps of the USA, SEK & GSG9 of Germany, GIP of Luxembourg, RAID of France, NOCS of Italy, Anti-Terrorist Squad of India, Special Police units of Belgium, Austria, Spain, Egypt, to name just a few.

In 1977, the top Chinese film director of the Shaw Brothers Film Production Company, Mr. Chang Cheh, invited him to be the Chief Technical Director, kung fu choreographer and martial art consultant in the production of his martial arts films.
