Ip Man is most recognized for teaching Wing Chun kungfu......It is a martial art that was perfected by female members, it features center line defense and doesn't require great strength but does require 'sensitivity' training. Sensitivity meaning being able to read an opponent's next move by being sensitive to their movements.. I studied under a Sifu who said he had met Ip Man......I even enrolled my son and eventually my daughter...I left the school after learning Sifu was 'nailing' female students on the yearly trips to a NYC WC school.....Also they were using drugs on these trips....

I've wanted to learn Wing Chun because it looks very interesting and intense, but with my knees if I get to learning anything it would probably be Aikido.
Not the hottest day of the year, maximum guestimated at 30c but warm enough.
So some idiot has decided this evening would be a good day for a casserole.

Wing Chun does not teach high kicks......

Hmm, I wonder - why is that? Is it because high kicks can possibly leave one more vulnerable?

The female origin is not historically provable, it is at best an origin story. Bruce Lee trained under Ip Man, however he was mostly taught by one of Ip Man's senior students. He also only learned Sil Lum Tao. However the rest is right. I trained Wing Chun for a little while and am currently considering going back. Trained under a student of Ip Ching and also trained in the Ip Man > Leung Sheung line.
In WC, center line protection is essential......and WC stays away from using too much energy or maybe because the WC brother or sister isn't supposed to lose contact with an opponent since that may break 'sensitivity'......or I just don't know the answer to your question....

Not sure about Aikido with bad knees because of this training
They also practice many of their techniques from the knees

A lot of Chinese martial arts styles do not use kicks that are above the waist
