Hey Saba,
I had a similar issue before I ended up practicing with Sifu Ward for a few years now. The answer is yes, but to get a certain level that you might want would involve a bit of creativity on your side. I think you’ll have to answer why you are studying Wing Chun. I can’t answer that for you, but for me, it was mainly for health and…[Read more]

Hey Charles,

Sorry for the delayed reply, I just saw this. Welcome back to the program, and it’s great to hear that you’re planning to attend the Lancaster seminar next year.

Niles is a bit far from Chicago for regular training, but if I’m ever traveling through Ohio or farther east, I’ll reach out. Definitely let me know when the Lancast…[Read more]

Hey Charles,
I’m Lester and also from the US (Chicago, IL). If I only saw this earlier I could have told you that this weekend all the US students were meeting in Lancaster PA for one of Sifu’s seminars. We have been doing it annually, so there’s always a next time.

If you’re ever around my neck of the woods, feel free to swing by a train! I…[Read more]

Whats the rescheduled timings ? Have been trying to find right time to join the class, could you tell us the time with respect to CSt?

I have been going through the basic module again and again, I see Sifu mentioned about if its long range we should use kicks? But until basic module 2 haven’t see kicks yet.:-) just asking how can I add them too…[Read more]

Sifu —

I am going through the lap sau excercise in biggner module 1 last lesson,

why are we keeping our punch at top level , if you see in this video too, the punch is not straight, normally if bong sau is used to defend straight punch ( i believe, we dont use bong sau to defend punch ,instead, to come into bong sau, you have to punch too, when…[Read more]

Interestingly, all my questions are answered in 1.3 basic punches 🙂 , the circular motion, the hammer fist.
@Sifu – Thank you for the detailing. Instead of asking all my questions, I think first i need to write down and see all your videos 🙂 , they will be automatically answered. Thank you so much.

Sorry for the bad title..basic misspelled

Is that the punch range, correct ? And thats the max extension we can go right? Anything beyond as we need to use kicks.

Hello Benjamin, I think it may be our day light savings, 7pm gmt+1 is our 12pm cst..but class started at 1pm cst. I thought it may be gmt time( not plus 1) or our day light savings.

Thank you so much Sifu, will practice as you suggested, one more thing is every time i revisit the basic punches, I am learning new things( the points i missed before ) . like you said, the force is from elbow,not from wrist. very well said, very well explained. Thank you so much , looking forward for more practice.

Little correction

Should the punch travel straight forward without the thumb side facing up?

I hope this message finds you well.

I kindly request that the thread I started on the forum be removed:

Any drills for muscle memory

I now realize the forum is intended for discussing concepts, whereas my post was more of a Q&A. At the time, I wasn’t sure how to reach you directly, but I’ve since dis…[Read more]

@Sifu,

Thank you for your response.
While practicing chain punches, I’ve noticed two different wrist mechanics.

In one method, my wrist lifts slightly during the punch, and at the moment of contact, the bottom three knuckles tend to land. It feels like the wrist pulls back just before impact.

In the second method, I begin the punch with a…[Read more]

Thank you Benjamin, I really appreciate your help,
Could you ping me your link plz..

I have created two punches..which way is correct, plz tell me..:-) i hope you wont say both are wrong

Thank you for response, I am located in Frisco,Texas, United States. Please do let me know if i can meet any one near by.

one more question is , while doing the chain punch or straight punch, is it normal to have a bend at the wrist , right before you hit the target , as we need to hit with last three knuckles, there is a natural bend at the end…[Read more]

just completed basic punches, its not the power, its the energy that we generate with relaxing hands, Understood. thank you so much

Thank you so much for encouraging me to ask more questions, I will post my questions soon as soon as I finish my module 1 🙂 , its great to be part of this school. Thank you once again.
