Yeah, it's kinda cool! You're not punching with your hand, but with your full body and you're punching INSIDE the target! And it is non-telegraphic punches. Love it!
Sifu jason korol, you are a very giving teacher, I wish there was an instructor like you in Birmingham, uk, keep up the great work, ted wong would be proud and Bruce himself, GOD BLESS
Great video! And thanks for removing the gloves. Questions: 1. Can you practice these strikes with a wall bag (kind used in Wing Chun)? 2. Which knuckles do you use in these strikes? Bottom three? 3. Do you pivot on either foot (heel up) when striking?
Hi, Roscoe. I’m really sorry about not getting back to you earlier on these questions. I know it’s been a while, but here goes: 1. Yeah. You can practice this on a wall bag. I think the heavy bag is better - especially since it allows for a little more footwork, but the wall bag will work too. 2. The bottom three is best for bare knuckle fighting. I know that modern boxing is quite different and uses the top two but that’s because of the gloves and wraps which we don’t have the benefit of in self-defense. The bottom three allows for the safest landing and keeps the wrist at its natural/strongest alignment. 3. And, yeah, we pivot to add the power-line (hip and shoulder) in punching. The twist/pivot should be as subtle as possible so as to not throw off one’s balance - especially since overcommitment is a good way to get taken down. The heel should turn to facilitate this but, again, it must be quick and economical. This takes more practice than many assume. The temptation is to gain power by leaning. But this results in poor balance, slower recovery, and more of a push than a punch. Well, thanks again for the input and question and my apologies for taking this long to respond. Best wishes to ya!
@@JKDandWingChun Thanks for the reply. No need to apologize.😊 Your advice is ALWAYS helpful and full of insight. I am grateful, and I eagerly look forward to each of your new videos. Now I need to add your books to my library.
Absolutely. So much trouble can be avoided when we stick to good fundamentals. We always tell our students that the three phases of learning martial arts/boxing/self/defense are: 1. Don’t do stupid stuff. 2. Counter their stupid stuff. 3. Make them do stupid stuff. Thanks for the input.
Shifu: Thank you. At home I have been practicing shovel hooks since your infighting video, throwing my eye jab, my left cross because you did a video on it (I would never use that in a self-defence situation, I am 57 and too slow, Iead punch, JKD Sprawl, groin kick and low side kick all with foot work, and footwork the most important. I am doing so about two time a week. I don't have a bag in my room so I have been shadow boxing. Should I add foot work to the overhand lead as well? I love your videos even when I disagree. I hope I have been respectful. William.
William Barnes that sounds like an awesome routine...and yes, add footwork to everything you’re doing as soon as you can. Work the tool and then integrate into good footwork and timing! That’s the goal. That’s “aliveness” as it goes. Thanks for watching!
Shaolin forms are more complex and require more athleticism while Wing Chun forms are easier and require much less athleticism. But to be competent at real fighting, you need to train for physical attributes and actually spar whether it's Wing Chun Shaolin or any style. Traditional martial arts have forms but forms training does not prepare you for self defense; forms are catalogues of techniques or tactics that are performed differently than actual application.
Thanks for watching and for the question. I’m a firm believer that sudden, unavoidable violence requires the utmost of simplicity and directness. Complexity of technique or tactics won’t cut it during the “time-crisis” of real world violence. That said, the counterattack (Jeet) principle of Wing Chun, which integrates offense and defense in single actions and tactics, is very well suited for sudden violence. What you learn the first day of Wing Chun, if you practice it enough, can and will provide you what you need to defend yourself. 🙏.
@@JKDandWingChun look all I'm saying is that Shaolin Kung Fu and Wing Chun are the most popular and famous Kung Fu styles for self defense and fighting I don't know which one to choose and I can't choose both people tell me Shaolin is harder and Wing Chun is easy
@@gerardocovarrubias1127 your question is which is harder is learn. Just forms, Shaolin is harder. For actual self defense, how good you get depends on how hard you train for physical attributes and how much sparring you do. Sifu Jason is saying Wing Chun is better for self defense in his opinion because in sudden violent encounter, a real self defense scenario, complex techniques are usually out the window and you revert back to gross motor skills. Simple direct movements such as Wing Chun will serve you well.
2:40 good money with that advice “A fat forearm packed with muscle and it lands on a die. (BOLT) the pinky. Perfect explanation Sifu. JKD has been lost? Have you seen Wray they’re doing now? 🤮it’s digressed further this past year or two. Same stuff CROSS HOOK CROSS n JEET TEK. Nothing innovative or inspiring. I’m trying myself to reinvent the art 🖼 back to simpler days like you said “A human weapon” smarter JKD is reality tools ⚒️ that you can count on.
Yeah, it's kinda cool! You're not punching with your hand, but with your full body and you're punching INSIDE the target! And it is non-telegraphic punches. Love it!
Excellent focus on details of proper body mechanics.
I will definitely put these into practice. Thank you Sifu Jason.
Thanks Sifu for another great video, have really helped refine my Wing Chun & Boxing
Sifu jason korol, you are a very giving teacher, I wish there was an instructor like you in Birmingham, uk, keep up the great work, ted wong would be proud and Bruce himself, GOD BLESS
See if Tommy Carruthers has any affiliates nearby. His h.q. is in Glasgow.
Another great video. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks for your books. God bless.
Have you read any of Michael Card's books?
There's a lot said for practicality and with that said, there's really nothing else to say. Great content!
Good for short guys.
3:07 hip to target hip to target on a shovel punch 🤛 right j ..
Are you sure you didn't train with Cus and Kevin in the Catskills?????
Yeah, but they had to keep me away from Mike because they didn’t want me to hurt his confidence. 😜😂😂
Thank you for the breakdown. Great video
Great video, thanks! also 8:05 : nice teaser for the Biu Jiu Breakdown video :D
I see you was a boxer at one time, I learned this shovel hook in kickboxing, it is sneaky because of its angle!
Great video! And thanks for removing the gloves.

Nice gloves too..heh
And green Academy quick question Shaolin Kung Fu is hard to learn while Wing Chun Kung Fu is easy to learn right

Traditional martial arts have forms but forms training does not prepare you for self defense; forms are catalogues of techniques or tactics that are performed differently than actual application.
@@jchien so both Shaolin and Wing Chun are good for self-defense and fighting but Shaolin is hard to learn and Wing Chun is easy to learn right
