Yuen Woo Ping

Yuen Woo Ping is one of the most successful and influential Chinese martial arts fight choreographers and film directors. Even if unfamiliar with his work as a film director, international audiences will certainly have seen the breathtaking sequences he has choregraphed for Quentin Tarantino in the Kill Bill films, Ang Lee's Oscar winning Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and finally, the Wachowski brothers' The Matrix, which possibly more than any other film, catapulted him into the international spotlight.
