    Your wing Chun is good, your business mentality is very good, but your greatest gift is teaching and getting the message across in a way that your followers can really digest the info! Love all your videos!

    I love your comments on the feel like “I do it like I’m tossing a coin” or on the stance video “like you’re going to sit on the back of a chair” these explanations really help me out.

    As an boxing expert and teacher at a ufc gym and now learning wing chun. I got to say I love the whole flow system of wing chun and just how you can easily defend against a good boxer is awesome plus the grace of wing chun is beautiful as well. Thank you for the tips 🙏❤😊

      Tan sao is the easiest to mess up. BY far. There are a LOT of really obscure useful movements if you find enough knowledge you could miss but they are easy to perform compared to tan sao it's the hardest because you actually can easily mess it up. You have to get it right and not wrong from lots of experience also experience against what you will defend.
      It's the easiest by far ... Definitely the easiest to mess up and you have to really get it right ... Every time.
      It definitely takes practice get better than your teacher.

      It also is most important to understand it as a concept and energy it's not form or textbook but the bend in the elbow is a concept that says you're not trying to LOOK a certain way by form instead your elbow is directing their force right where you are strongest your center so it doesn't torque if it torques it's gone and you need to bong.
      It's also done differently depending on the energy ... Angle ... Range.
      For instance guarding the centerline too much could burn your shoulder out ... But you can float your elbow in during contact ... But it is a lot of extra pressure know that can also hurt you.
      But you can't have it anywhere but the center in ration to force of their punch on a hook punch it is a cross like he taught correctly and he made me better too just by listening to him.
      It's VERY easy to get hurt if you don't understand it.
      It also traps their arm and if they try to come back to the center by going down you do move your vow into the center and you get free hits with centerline edge block punches immediately.
      It's not LOOKING right ... It's knowing your body and structure ... It's also reading their energy and directing it to the center where you are strong ... Not a torque you can't manage that's one good reason bong sau exists, if tan torques that's fine ...that's bad ... But you can't always resist that much.
      You either raise it higher like a biu so the torque decreases it is called sky Palm or spreading palm ... You have to change the torque don't resist it with Power ... That won't work.
      Or ...
      You collapse it into a bong all relaxed and easy.
      That's bad. You don't want it to collapse ... But fighting like a hook with your torque in your shoulder is wrong it's not strong and you'll get hurt.
      So you let it go and bong sau.
      That is all you can do. One of those two. If you're early enough if it seems like it will fail or is failing you'll still block it.
      In contact you can feel pressure before a strike and go to bong sau.
      Yep.
      You can use a cross tan sau as well which is a corkscrew spiral.
      But one thing is for sure ... There's always just that one perfect structure and it's conceptual not looking a certain way.
      It will catch the energy RIGHT and it's easy to misunderstand that and not catch it right.
      If you don't catch it right ...if you are too tense too ...
      It goes badly.
      So it's the easiest to mess up but when understood it is something.
      Be good.

    Very good Sifu Tan , I’ve trained Tong Long for many years , it’s the little things that make the technique work , so attention to detail is very important . Like Wing Chun Tong Long is not as it appears and takes much practise to get it right . It’s why the Chinese Martial Arts are so disciplined , but oh so great when you get it.🇦🇺 thanks again Scott

      Mental Imagery is a scientific fact to helping people improve greatly. I had to do much of my training on my own. I learned one on one with my teacher. Being his only student. He had gotten to where he refused to take any more students for a number of reasons. So, I had to prove myself to my teacher for him to accept me a decade later as a student. So, all my practice was on my own, with no special training equipment or another person to train with. I have to tall you it makes a giant difference and again with my Sports and Exercise Science degree has been tested and proven to make giant difference with applying.

      Scour the internet a little bit, you'll be able to find tutorials on how to do the Wing Chun dummy using PVC, but then I think you'd have to reinforce it somehow. Or try to have a wooden dummy made.

  • @TheQuarterbackX

    That is great that you are trying to share what you had learned from your teacher. I had found over the years that each person I have come across that had trained in Wing Tsun, had been taught very different. Yes there are simularities. Though among those simularities there seems to be more difference between two practitioners then simularities on how they may apply those techniques.
    From my way of training, I can easily see how you started off having problems getting punched while trying that technique. Though seeing how you had evolved to understand this one way of applying the move, it seems to also have some interisting applications.
    I was also trained to do it slow. Mainly as slow as needed to make sure every aspect is done slow enough to make sure it is in its proper place throughout the movement. Where as that develops, we would also train it at full speed. Even when doing a form to time how quickly we can go through the whole form without cheating any one of the many aspects, techniques with in this and all other moves. When doing so there are lots if great aspects a person can learn from it. And, able to gain lots of insight to many different variations to each movement and technique learned in forms taught in W.C..
    Keep learning and evolving in your style.

    Minor details is major. It is the little things that count the most particularly when you are referring to structural integrity. I really appreciate the way you explain things particularly when you cannot "feel" the instructor and one is only learning it visually through videos. At least, the viewer will have a better and clearer understanding of how it should be done. Thank you for your knowledge and passing on the great art of Wing Chun sir.
