Jason Lau

Jason Lau is a martial arts practitioner of Wing Chun Kung Fu as the Grandmaster of the Jiu Wan branch. He worked as the "resident martial-arts master" in the Cobray International counter-terrorist training camp of Mitchell Livingston WerBell III, an "old boys club" member of the clandestine United States Intelligence Community.

Jason Lau learned Wing Chun under Jiu Wan (Chiu Wan) and introduced his friend Francis Fong to the style. Jason Lau worked under the late Mitchell Werbell III in his counter-terrorist training camp Cobray International in Powder Springs, GA; WerBell had an established history with the CIA and other clandestine governmental agencies. At Cobray International, security forces for Lyndon LaRouche were trained. Jason Lau's experience reportedly allowed him "to walk...across ceilings like a human fly, remain crouched in a motionless position for hours while waiting for his prey, jump higher than people's heads; and pause, bird-like, suspended in the air," according to Eagle magazine. In 1987 Jason Lau helped stage a mock terrorist raid on a synagogue in Atlanta.

Alan Goldberg, one of Lau's top students, was named 2004 Kung Fu Artist of the Year by Black Belt magazine. Chris Burke, Michael Militano, and Louis Oscar are also top students that have their own Kung Fu schools.

Jason Lau learned Wing Chun from Jiu Wan. Jiu Wan, according to Jason Lau, was Kung Fu brothers with Yip Man. Another student of Jiu Wan states that he was Yip Man's student but goes on to say "Since, as it is said, "There can be no two teachers in the same style" or in other words no two teachers equal in skill, in his twenty years of following Yip Man Jiu Wan has always treated Yip Man as his master."On September 11, 2012 Jason Lau went on an interview for ucwradio ,for an online entertainment magazine, and vehemently stated that Jiu Wan never studied under Yip Man considering the idea as a "bizzare thing". Plus he also stated that he specified "very clearly" to Wong Shun Leung and Hawkins Cheung (notable Yip Man's students) that Jiu Wan never was a student of Yip Man. The students of Francis Fong , Jason Lau's kung fu brother and another student of Jiu Wan, have also corroborated to the story saying that Jiu Wan and Yip Man were class mates who studied together.
