Hi Nick,
Mmmmm,,,
“The body follows movement of the hands. The waist and the stance move together.
I am sorry, but I do not understand… or so I think?
I’m not sure I do either to be honest, where did I say this? On the video?
If you are referring to the ‘Chi Sau tennis’ then the idea here was simply to keep the elbow in-between his nose and…[Read more]

I think I just began to understand… in the concept of (not) playing Chi Sau tennis?

hi Sifu,
You posted this on Facebook, a couple of weeks ago. I have been pondering it ever since. Can you please explain what it means?

Hi all!
This is Andoitz, from San Sebastian in the Basque Country, north of Spain.
I come from a karate background, Shotokan and Uechi Ryu, but somehow Wing Chun always caught my interest, and I finally decided to make a commitment and get seriously into it. I don’t have any physical places to learn Wing Chun nearby, so I think this website is…[Read more]

Thank you for the kind words and hope you’re back on track very soon. although do keep in mind that this may be a little different in its approach so do keep an one mind, empty cup and all that. 🙂

Hi Sifu!
No need to apologise, that sounds amazing! My last holiday involved packing our two off to the grandparents for three nights. 😀
I’ve put in the FB request just now, thanks for the reminder.
I’m working through Modules 1 and 2 to help get myself back to “what I knew”. The forms are very similar from what I remember of SLT and the…[Read more]

Hi Lee,
Glad you got into the catchup, and as I said, I reckon it was just a prerecord that had the settings off.
As for the elbows, first of all, did you understand that discussion ok?
It’s the one where I mention there are 4 elbows but really there’s only 2 yes???Anyhoo…
Attacking while moving forward, there are a few, the Biu’s in section…[Read more] -

Hi Sim and welcome to the family!
Sorry for the delay but I’ve just spent the last four days in the back and beyond, completely off grid, in a romany caravan owned by gypsies.
My wife, myself and my three kids like to get back to nature when possible (we find it’s the best way to clear our heads), anyhow, horses don’t move that fast so the…[Read more]

Cheers Sifu
So I have been able to get into the latest catchup class. I took a while but after numerous attempts I got in.
Thanks for the offer to ask a question.
Questions I may have?honestly I can’t think. But there will be loads to perfect. I read your response to Nick on his Chum kiu. Will pay attention to that and advice given to o…[Read more]

Hi everyone,
My name is Simeon (though everyone calls me Sim) and I live in Auckland, New Zealand.
I trained for about two years in the Lo Man Kam lineage of Wing Chun, though I somehow managed to let life, etc get in the way and haven’t been to a class in many years.
With COVID stopping basically everything else, I realised how very much I…[Read more]

Sifu Colin Ward replied to the topic Catch up zoom classes in the forum Members Forum 4 years, 6 months ago
Hi Lee,
Real shame we won’t see you live.
As for the catchup, that issue only happens when it is a prerecord through Vimeo, so if I need to do that again I will double check that the settings are correct and that it’s not on a restricted access etc.
I will be at tonight’s class, therefore the normal catchup availability will be waiting for you,…[Read more]

Hi Sifu
I don’t think I will be able to make a live class for a while.
My go to class has changed nights from Wednesday to Thursday. At least for the time being. We actually hire a squash court and Wednesday has gotten rather busy where as it used to be ultra quiet. Thursday is the new Wednesday.
Could I ask that you provide the best way to a…[Read more]
