If you go to 18.8 in the course progression, Sifu goes through all eight sections.

Hi Ben,

A sense of flavour is an interesting description, it also makes me think of a sense of flamboyance, which is rarely ever for the better.

“Anyone can add on to a system, the secret is to try to take away, and still keep it pure”.

I’ve learned lineage provides a sense of flavor. It is also a great experience of learning to establish how WC families are connected.

Correct Lester.

Benjamin, I am surprised you would need to ask the question of lineage?

As for other schools, we are not connected with them but we do show respect to them, especially the ones who have been kind in the past.

By this I mean Ip Ching, Wong Shun Leung, Chu Shong Tin and other, who have all been gracious with their time and…[Read more]

If Wing Chun comes from Shaolin, then it does indeed already hold true these methods.

Of course, the more senior students / Sifu Ward would know better than me.

Dear Sifu Colin,
Thank you for your kind reply. Your information is well noted. I will try my best even for doing a temporary solo work until I get the partner.
Thank you for all the wonderful learning Sifu Colin. It is a really nice learning from you. So sorry I couldn’t join your live class so far due to the different time zone in which I’m not…[Read more]

Thanks Lester for the info!!!

Hey Jeffrey,
Welcome, and there’s actually a pretty big group in Lancaster, PA (https://www.lancasterwingchun.com/).

I’m from Chicago, but I will be stopping by there for the April 25-27 seminar on Chi Sao. I think we also have another member there in Lebanon, but I don’t want to speak for him.
