Hi Peter and welcome to the family.

I will look more in to this tomorrow for you, but for now, have you looked at MY ACCOUNT and DOWNLOADS? There are some online training plans there you may find interesting.

You are SO right you would not believe it.

When I officially open my school in Feb 1991, I told my students that I didn’t want to teach them Wing Chun, I wanted then to learn it from/through me, there is a big difference between learning through self discovery and simple being spoon fed the information.

Of course if there is a question, I will…[Read more]

Not at all Sifu. In fact, there probably is a video for this already. I have just overlooked it.
Without knowing what to ask or in this case what to look for, it can be easy to feel like I’ve taken in everything from a particular session and move on to the next.
In any case, if there is some question that arises while watching the videos,…[Read more]

I do believe that is a reminder for me to make a video??? 🙂 🙂 🙂

Thanks brother! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

The information that is available here is undeniable!
“Everything in WingChun can be found here, if you know where to look.”

This has been tested many times over!

I only bring it up in this particular thread because I was looking for this exact description.

As I’m going through these lessons once again, I’ve noticed even more things that I’ve…[Read more]

Looking good 💯 Keep it up!

Thank you again Si-Fu for the feed back on my wooden dummy form. Also, just wanted to let you know that I still haven’t received my assessments results from back in March. The year is almost over and I planned to do one assessment a year if possible. You can post the results here if that’s easier for you.

The pleasure is mine. Even when you don’t have a voice to communicate, I hear what you are saying!!!

Thank you!

Sorry I didn’t get to see you in class but lost my voice, so explaining may have been trickier than I’d initially expected. 🙂

It is very easy to explain something in principle, but when aggression and force are added to the mix, the variables become vast.

If intent is throughout the strike (street), then we say lap/fak.
If in chi sau, is…[Read more]

This response is pretty fantastic in and of itself!!! Thank you!!!

‘Do you recommend a way to clear a bong sau to make way for a strike?’
This is too open to interpretation:
where is the other person
what are they doing
chi sau or fighting
where is your guard…..

Perhaps we could look at this tonight??

Hey Lee,

I was thinking about your situation and wanted to post todays blog with you in mind, then remembered that the very things I wanted to mention had actually been posted a couple of years ago, therefore it was easiest to simply repost for you.

Do take a look as it may help you. 🙂

Sifu

Excellent, and you are VERY welcome my friend.

Thanks Sifu

A lot of information there overall.

Definitely what has passed me by is thinking of being in an actual turn to an opponent when square on to the dummy.

I need to have a good look through the online videos or maybe any blogs to aid my understanding.

I like the attacking the attack concept and can recall you saying it numerous…[Read more]

Hi Lee,

Again, I will answer these points as I read them:

‘When in the final destination of a die bong would I be correct in saying the other arm cannot punch because it’s out of range?’
and
‘Not the little test you describe (pak and palm strike with tan hand)or like the last section where it is necessary to square up to put the strike in.’
I t…[Read more]

Cheers Sifu

Yes it makes sense. Thanks.
Another question regarding the die bong.

When in the final destination of a die bong would I be correct in saying the other arm cannot punch because it’s out of range? Like the first section (tans and side palm other hand) Not the little test you describe (pak and palm strike with tan hand)or like the l…[Read more]
