Hey, I think the best way to describe the use of the forms (I learned this from Derek Fung in Sydney, he’s an ex Ip Man and Chu Shong Tin student) is that the daily practice of the form, is finding the most efficient way to move to move your body, trying to perform those movements without the use of muscular force, while applying the maximum amount of body mass quickly. In SLT we find the most efficient way to stand still and apply the arm movements of wing chun In CK we add the body movement, by turning, stepping and standing on one leg but the goal is to maintain the perfect conditions you trained in SLT In BG we add the movement of the spine and increase the speed, while maintaining the perfect conditions we set in the previous forms. With the weapons we extend that perfection to first the blades and then the long pole The Muk Yang Jong trains us to maintain those conditions within ourselves, while applying force to an object And Chi Sau trains us to maintain the perfect conditions while receiving and applying force in a Live setting. Ultimately the goal is to build the engine of efficiently freeing up the body mass, so that regardless of what the movement looks like, it still has maximal output. So however the external conditions change, the internal conditions remain perfect.
Great content and spitting some truths. The biggest thing that changed my wing chun was changing school that hit bags and other equipment. Rather than just "looking wing chun" you hit the nail on the head by just being fluid and flowing. Not rigid with awful movement punching or kicking fresh air 🙏
Totally agree it's a great offensive and defensive weapon. The fact that with good WC structure it is thrown without chambering or upper body movement it is so difficult to see coming.
I totally agree with you. Wing Chun was developed for common men ( or women). Wing Chun was not created for ring or sport fighting; it is for self defense. It is meant for simplicity and low maintenance and quick to learn and use. The Wing Chun kicks are very effective, and easy to learn and use in real fighting situations. Even Bruce Lee gave up on traditional Wing Chun. He took what was useful to him and created his own personal Martial Art which he called "JKD". I am a retired Tiaji and Wing Chun teacher. I would love to meet you and your students in person one day and compare notes and chat. Thanks for posting your videos. I really enjoy watching the way you teach.
I'm 95% sure Bruce Lee would have continued his Wing Chun training under Wong Shun Leung had he stayed in Hong Kong rather than move to America. WSL was a very practical and no BS Sifu. He had a lot of practical boxing experience before training in WC which added to his fight mentality and tactics.

Yes, Sir, as far as I got it, secret of WT may be the aspect not mentioned so often, i.e. the leg attacks! With over three decades on the tatami: Yes and No , at the same time! Let me explain it: You are right in saying, WT is mostly presented with its bridging hand techniques, which do not only block but also hit basically at the same time. Doing all that at a close distance within (reach of hands), while using legs mostly after side-stepping , and those legs maximum to knee height. But, the fighting shown as above above however made at a standard Long-to medium distance, where direct counterattacks with leg are already possible. In my opinion, it is a non-standard approach to Wing Tchun as, by Chinese experts, it has considered as the tip of the spear, while the medium range is occupied by the Wu dang styles, with the Tai chi Chuan at the far end ofthe spear! To survive it, hands have to be applied first, as Chi sao, handblocks applied priempitvely, then comes the evsive body and only then the legs. This is how the body mechanics of Passive a defences work, like it or not. I also admit the existence of various approaches from those sticking strictly to the distance most suitable for the style- WT fore close, TKD to long distance) or the one using one style to all distances. Well, it all depends on the man. As a Goju ryu instructor and also having absolved some boxing training, I agree with using all the distances, yet I can still maintain the idea of anthropoid approach: Taller people shold fight at a distance ( The legs of the North in K.F.) and shorter people at close quarters, (The fists of the South) where WT is more ideal.

Thank you! I really enjoy your videos! I recently found some videos about integrative Wing Chun. Do you have any info about that or maybe you can refer me to some good sources to learn what is it and how is it different from other schools? Thank you!
I don’t have any one thing in particular I could point you to except to say that everyone has a core principle through which they view Wing Chun. They should be able to identify and explain that principle AND show how it’s internally consistent within the Wing Chun system itself as well as externally applicable in the real world. In another words, all practice is the practice of a theory. I can’t speak for all other schools of thought but we make a point here of letting the students know the main ideas are so they aren’t “training blind” so to say.

You consistently put out exceptional content. You are one of the instructors that helps keep real and practical Kung Fu alive.
I like the rear leg oblique kick to the opponent's lead knee as a stop hit.
The shoe is the best overlooked modern weapon, coupled with those low-line kicks. Good to see a video from you pop in the feed.

common sense the thing we need so much in wing chun
We really need to avoid overcomplicating things, don’t we?
Thanks for the input and for watching.

Technique Smithing... Great Terminology Sifu! Thank You for All your Videos. 💥🇺🇸👍
🙏🙏😎. Thanks for watching!
Excellent video thanks for sharing!!!
Excellent. My favorite drill from the Advanced JKD on-line class is the High/Low feint as a matter of fact.
3:20 kicking with the heel. Smart. 😛🙏🤟🏻💯
This is great! How else can a little guy beat a big guy? That low line foot stomp is applicable at any state of athleticism or lack thereof

It is smart to use kicks but it is slower though the range is better😊
Also this is great video btw
thanks a bunch for watching and for the input.
Excellent video. One of the best you've done. One of the best out there so far on kicking. And keep the dad jokes coming.
Shifu how do block the low kicks?
Никак, в вин чун нету блоков. Сближение с ударом, и противнику будет не до лоу кика.
