Hi Colin,
Quick answer is…

Hello my friend!
Certificates of completion are available to download/print at the end of each Module, but this should be the same for SERIOUS memberships, not just VERY SERIOUS memberships?
Are you not able to get this certificate?

Hi Ashley and welcome. 🙂
Glad you’re enjoying the training, I try to keep new exercises as a way of keeping you on the ball as it were.
Reading punches is always tricky, mainly because if they’re any good they should give anything away, but then again neither should you, so if you have decided that this shit has suddenly got real, you…[Read more]

When you say:
‘In the knife form, the punches do not change’
The principles of the punch remain the same yes, but the end result is different.This also carries with your quote:
1) If it causes pain its being done wrong. Wing Chun is designed to work in unison with the body’s natural movements. If it’s not comfortable it isn’t right.

Hi Duanne,
This is simply moving toward a low Garn, the motion itself does not have a name worth remembering, what I mean by that is that ANYTHING can be translated into Chinese but this does not qualify it into being a ‘technique’, just showing an application of how this action may be interpreted.
Hope that makes sense?

Hi Nick,
Some great points as I mentioned in last nights session, just remember to ALLOW the tip of the blade to drag during the punches, do not lead with the tip of the blade and do not point the tip of the blade backwards BEFOE setting off with the punch itself.

Hi Michael,
A common mistake, when I refer to ‘The library’ I am simply referring to the video classes in general, not as a separate area.
How is training going? Is there anything you need?
Best wishes,

Hi Michael and welcome!
I must say, I thought your comment;
‘Although I have no training partner as yet I found there is more than enough to learn for now.’ hits the nail on the head perfectly!Oh and a trip to my school would be wonderful.
Happy training my friend,

That’s great news, you’re welcome.
I do not know why but sometimes when we update something, it throws out some videos.
