I use to do wing chun for 7 yrs many moons ago .lol
Never had I really heard anyone explain certain so in details. Which to me meant alot. Will continue to follow Master Chan and start from the beginning of the form , definitely a lot to learn. Thank you Master you made my morning start the right way.
I respect that Jesse didn't pretend to not have any martial arts background at all. Speaks well about his integrity and about this channel's as well. Good job.
Sifu Chan, you're The Real McCoy.
Thats a amazing class in 12 minutes. Positions and live explanations with the other boy. Simply brilliant. I found the best channel to introduce me in wing chun
Watching this makes me feel like I'm not that bad of a teacher because I always thought I overwhelmed with too much information but Adam does the same thing. Seems fine.
Gotta trust the students too.
Depends on the student. Some get very easily overwhelmed and eventually get struck with analysis paralysis, completely unable to function. With some students you have to just focus on getting one thing right at the time.
Hi Adam, thx for this video. It's amazing to see how much little details there are just in the opening of the form...
Wing Chun is the most difficult art that I've ever tried to learn. This is a good thing. Mechanics are simple but need trained constantly for hard wiring.
It’s because there is a lots of subtleties in it you can’t even see or notice until you start learning.
@@axelstone3131 I've literally spent six months on the first two sections of Siu Nim Tao and I STILL have so much trouble even staying in the horse. I'm a very fit dude too. It's great.
I'm really looking forward to more of these forms and break downs of the form. Thanks Adam and co!
Hi Johnny, you can learn more at www.adamchankungfu.com/
Adam Chan has been teaching online and there are a lot of techniques breakdown, solo training, and power building in his online training.
Thanks

Thanks Sifu
Good Class, Sifu Adam Chan!!!
I first "learned" SLT form twenty years ago, now I find out I never really learned it. You've opened several new dimensions to my training
Its just concepts. Don't get bogged down by the details. In time, you'll get it. Start with the gross mechanics then gradually move to the fine tuning.
Late comment but it brings to mind the stories about Ip Man doing form 1 for an hour, shaving imperfections from his art like a master sculptor.
Super excited haven't seen the video yet. Can't wait.
Congratulations for this new video. I've been practicing north praying mantis style for more than 5 years and I'm learning Weng Chun for 1 year now Although there's only 3 forms in Weng Chun I would say it is more difficult to understand its applications/variations than the north style.
Execellent teaching. The type im looking for. He tell why and how of all those not understood details. I did took up wushu/ wing chun way back then but nobody abswers my question untill now!
It's amazing that you can be so intricate and detailed about such a seemingly trivial movement, and yet charge 400 dollars for an online training program.
Thanks for this
This is very helpful!! Would love to see more of this
Beautiful. Every little position and movement have an optimal purpose in wing chun. Constant learning curve. Very constructive Channel 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
A master class on siu lim tao. There’s so much to discover and develop.
First corse in youtube realy thanks mr chan 💛
Wow, so much details. I am impressed and amazed 👏
Impressive first video with very good information and learning; keep it up guys!
Don’t you think overly correctly people in the beginning can make it more difficult for people to learn? Rather than just getting the basic movement down up to a certain point and THEN correcting them instead rather that correcting every little thing from the start?
You seem like a great teach Adam you explain everything and in depth very well.
Once they practice without correction for a prolonged period of time, it becomes much harder to later correct because of muscle memory. It is more beneficial to the student to correct them as earlier as possible.
@@_rami_745 yeh I’m aware. I mean getting the basic movement down to a certain point, then correct it. Don’t do it for say 2 weeks. Just one week then correct it from there as an example
@@axelstone3131 I'm sure it depends on the student's personality the most
My Baji teacher used to give two choices to his students: correcting every little movement until the basic forms were close to perfect if not perfect or have 60 to 70% down then correct them along the way.
From my experience, those who went through the pain of correcting every little thing from the start had less things to correct when we went to most advanced forms. We started slower, but we progressed faster. My teacher used to say that learning martial arts was all about learning when to struggle more; at the beginning or in the middle of learning.
I don't know how kung fu training actually works but in the movies the master is always harsh and tough loving in their approach to teaching. If that's accurate at all then the "correcting" seen in this video is rather mild.
When I began TaeKwonDo I had to do the same repetition and details!!
After I got somewhere years later I realized how much self worth I felt!!
Adam Chan is a gifted teacher & instructor...
I always wanted to meet lots of Famous People...
Now, just to have an honest talk with Adam Chan over the telephone would make me learn THE CHALLENGE from him, and to have him teach me the application!!
Your explanation of the movements' details is essential to proper technique, and little understood by most martial arts teachers. Please consider doing an entire series detailing the principles and applications of the movements and especially, why those details are essential to the successful completion of the forms. Thank you.
The student is over analyzing the information given. Little by little leads to perfection.
On the day that I took my first Wing Chun class, I mentioned that I hadn't taken a martial arts class since 1989 (Ed Parker Kenpo). About half way into the class someone asked if I was either pranking them or if I was a Wing Chun boss like in the TV Show Undercover Boss because I was doing way too well for what I had advertised as my skills. At the basic level the form is monkey see , monkey do. This reminds me of the TV show "So You Think You Can Dance" where very good dancers have to walk into a studio and learn in 1 day a 3-ish minute choreography possibly in the dance style that they have never done.
Some people preform this exercise very very slowly flexing each muscle in every part sorta like a moving isometric exercise.
At around 2.25 in the opening part where you raise your arms forward, your palms are facing down but when sifu Moy Yat does it, his palm are facing up! Does it matter here? I guess one can be creative..
But really enjoy all your lessons on youtube!
多謝曬,陳師傅!
Good work sir. Keep it up
hi wonderful video love it.
I love this! Folks don't understand how deep and detailed the sil lum tao is. Pretty much the majority of the arsenal of Wing Chun. Great break down!
Wonderful
very delicately scientific
Que duro es el empezar, jajaj ánimo!!
Excellent video, wish your school was in oklahoma; D

Good
Awesome 😎👍
You had me at 2:38 "The Border". No one has mentioned that before when discussing this seemingly benign form. Apparently, there is a science behind this :-) Thanks!
Look harder..."no one" has mentioned this?
This is literally the basic first lesson(s) of wing chun...not something unique to this teacher.
@@yew2oob954 Not the word border so much. Frame, yes. As far as mentioning the 3-space of movement, yes. What's the Chinese word they use?
@@farkinarkin5099 Not sure what you mean by 3-space of movement.
@@yew2oob954 Oh. It's like the volume of space (x-y-z) relative to yourself that you need to deal with. While intuitive, many people will try to block or parry strikes outside of that "airspace" and therefore waste a lot of energy, or worse, over-extend (as in lose structure/form). Where it gets tricky is when an opponent is really good with distance and angle control (like a good boxer).
@@farkinarkin5099 So, are you asking what the chinese call that? What was the point of your question?
I'm about 3 months into learning Wing Chun and am still trying to fully memorize the Siu Nim Tau. I'm taking a slow approach, slower than some of the other students who started with me, but yeah it's not easy. In our classes my sifu emphasizes memorizing the full set of motions first (with as good a form as we can imitate), then working on perfecting those forms once we've got the full Siu Nim Tau down. It looks like Adam emphasizes perfecting each set/position in the form before moving on to the next. I think that would definitely make it harder for me and up the frustration level. Curious why that's your preferred approach?
Precision does Not come easy. Unfortunately it is Easy to develop bad form/habits. What I like about Adam is that he’s going to show you the Major difference in what seems like a minor mistake. Like every good exercise you are going to “feel the burn” in this case it’s as much in your head as in your body.
Afternoon Sifu,
Are you planning to offer certification to your online course? Really like your take on Wingchun making it more functional. Would you also be considering courses on the other two forms?
Kind Regards
Rich UK
Greetings from Saudi Arabia ,,, how can i reach Sifu Adam ?
Oi Boa noite Mestre eu Tem muito que Aprender contigo eu Gostei muito eu quero Muito Aprende contigo Mestre
That is why WC is claimed to be a scientific martial art; every single movement and detail has its own purpose...
Then when Wing Chun Masters come up against mma fighters they get destroyed and embarrassed.
@@BCCmma64bang Demonstrate it...
@@mirkopanichi461 just google MMA Vs Wing Chun . really not that hard to do.
@@mirkopanichi461 or look here on you tube.
@@BCCmma64bang What I meant is that YOU IN PERSON have to demonstrate it; if you say something, you have to be able to do the thing in matter, so having said a thing, I guess you are a mma master; therefore in the next weeks or months, you will organize a match with a proper wing chun master, you will shoot a video of the match (without rules, seen martial arts have no rules, aside to survive to an aggression in the street), then we all will see the results of the match... I saw a lot of the videos you are implying about, and the most of them are in situations not matching street fighthings, between WC morons and really good mma fighters: not fair conditions and surely not demonstrating a damn thing. I can't' wait for your video. Have a good day.
Only a kxnthead thinks that it is easy but the such absolute truth is that almost everything requires efforts, times and love in order to be successful at it.
3:40 jesus christ man, how hard did you train?! fuck!
Second
First!
Third
Maybe, too much information. Maybe, just give him the info he needs to do the first thing right and when he gets that right, give more info for the next step.
nice guy...but.. 5 th degree blackbelt still having to see where his feet are and cant co ordinate body timing.. color me dubious.
15th degree black belt?? 🤔🤔🤔
Fifth degree, not fifteenth....
@@keyser_söze23 ocee.
5th- BULL 👎😷👍 job!
See how u are bending your legs. That's what internal guys attack. They attack the nuclei tention in your body.and it's all over the place.just as a thumbs up
Dont mean to burst your bubble. But this sort of wc doze not work at all againts real internal wing chun. U been had
Wing chun full of styles but no substance. Not useful in a street fight.
