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]

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

Thank u

It says Thursday 7pm. However the right time i dont see, I try joining Saturday 7am cst. But I dont see anyone. Could you give us right time in est or cst plzzz

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]

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]

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

After our discussion, I think I understood our punch range , and how i ne3d to punch

Could you take a look and give me feed back,please

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]

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]

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

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]

2. My mind running so fast that in the first lesson ,it was told how a tan sau can be used to intercept a hook and hit…[Read more]

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

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.

The same applies to me if anyone is in the US around Chicago, IL. I even know of a JKD place nearby that will let us in to record during their open mat.

Best,
Lester

I think Module 12 is a good place to start.

Just to add what everyone else said, for the stance, it is technically a training stance (not really a fighting one). So, the way you shifted to feel weight on the thighs is right, but I know Sifu has a saying that it takes effort to get Wing Chun wrong. In other words, he would probably prefer the one where you feel more…[Read more]

Just to confirm (due to daylight saving messing me up here at the States), are the live class times still:

Mondays 7 pm GMT+1
Thursdays 7 pm GMT+1

Thanks,
Lester

Sifu or the more senior students will probably chime in but I think it is the case in Wing Chun as well. Once you learn the general structure of the punch, you’ll find that you need to stay relaxed for most of the strike to maintain speed and power. I think the only point of tension should be at the moment of impact, but right after,…[Read more]

I just looked at the 8.5 Muk Yan Jong Fat Basic – Section 7 (https://wingchun.online/modules/module-8/lessons/8-5/). I currently see only an application video there. Is that correct, or can we find the section 7 basic wooden dummy form in another location?

Thanks,
Lester
