Leung Yee-tai (梁二娣) was a Wing Chun master.
He was a strong boatman who steered riverboat by pushing a long pole against the river bottom.
A Shaolin monk Chi Sin (至善禪師) saw that he was a natural successor to the Shaolin pole fighting skill called six and a half point long pole.
He taught Wong Wah-bo his pole fighting skill in exchange for the Wing Chun fist-fighting skill. Though he was a student of Wong in Wing Chun, he was actually Wong's sifu in the pole fighting skill. Wong modified the pole fighting skills using Wing Chun principles. The modified pole skill is now part of Wing Chun training.
He was seeking medical help when he was sick one time.
Leung Jan was the herbal doctor he saw.
He trained Leung Jan when he was already an old man at over sixty of age.
