Wing Chun has many oral traditions. Known as kuen kuit they are often short, sing-song, sayings and rhymes. These sayings and rhymes provide the Wing Chun (Ving Tsun) practitioner much wisdom and help to transmit the principles and concepts found in Ving Tsun.

It was not until Sigung Moy Yat was commissioned by Soji Yip Man, had the Kuen kuit been put to stone chops. The stone chops are a one of a kind work of art. The seals (chops) provide the history & principles of the Wing Chun style in stone. They are respected as both a work of art and for their content in recording the maxims of Ving Stun.

The chops consist of 51 different kinds of stone carved in 51 different styles. It took 3 years to collect the stones and an additional 3 years to plan and carve them. They are on display in 4 custom made boxes at the Ving Tsun Museum.
