carol carolmoore dude I'm a wing chun and boxing and jiujitsu practioner and wing chun is good for real fighting but it is used best as a surprise in a real situation your attackers usually are not a trained killer or a trained fighter.so yes wing chun will work but for it to work well you must train under pressure.and sifu Mark Phillips is the real deal holyfield.
''at the end of the day.... he's punching HERE ..not over there..'' now..ask yourself how simple this Perspective IS..and.. in a chaos situation re Real Combat to the Death..how can i stay simple and so well focused? Wing Chun....taught by the ''Real'' Sifu is this Simple..chaos is clearly made equally Simple.. thankyou Sifu Mark.
I found the channel looking to improve my Huen Sau. And since then I watched like 30 of your videos! And it was yesterday evening. I love your videos. So insightful and done with so much joy. Hope to see many more in future. And yeah - I love the smile :)
loving these videos. I tell people that same thing about controlling the arms, and it also keeps the bridge that has been made connected. thanks for sharing your knowledge, experience, and wisdom with us fans I really appreciate it!
+masterninja03 Thank you for watching, we really appreciate it. It's tough on RUclips there are so many Wing Chun and martial arts videos that it is sometimes hard to stand out. So thank you for watching.
+The London Wing Chun Academy No! thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to the system. despite all the other Wing Chun videos out there, real practical wing chun is always going to stand out especially when there is a great teacher like yourself. so... thank you for being you sifu!
Used to train under Sifu Frearson (ITSWA) and Kamon ( sifu Kevin Chan). Kamon was more reality based Wing Chun defence (like these videos) whilst ITSWA was more traditional Wing Chin. I enjoy these videos. Lot of food for thought
In kempo-jutsu, we were 80% hands, 20% low kicks, and a good arsenal of locks and throws. Not every school or fighter has a background in grappling. I've seen good fighters lose because they lacked the stopping power or speed to stop an incoming grappler, or because they were just to stationary. I'd be interested to see a video by you on footwork- especially evasive footwork. I'd bet you have something interesting to say about it
+Joe Morales I'm happy this video was useful. It's even more important at your stage in life to know that we were of some value. Thanks for watching. Have a great day.
FIGHT SCIENCE Hello.greetings from Terence mdhluli.your videos are really the best videos i know,I would like to ask that how can I improve my weak hand?
Not that I have experience in fighting but to my understanding in a close contact fight, it may be better to intercept the first strike in many cases a hook and get on the outside of that arm and strike and grapple the person, It is obvious that your skills are extra ordinary and you have mastered the art of fighting, but for an ordinary person it would not be good to stay in the middle of all four striking limbs as their muscle memory, contact reflexes and timing would not be tuned as yours. In a real fight I would also try to go for an open hand strike to the eyes. I do not have that much experience in fighting because I believe that the majority of fights can be defused even before they happen it, it helps if a person is confident that he can defend himself in these situations and he can keep his anger in control. I did find your skills in fighting and teaching excellent. Many thanks for your time. I really appreciate the videos.
+Anthony Ryu thank you very much for the comment. It's been a while since I've seen this video but from memory I was teaching the simple concepts of control. That is, having an understanding of the Gate System in Wing Chun to create a degree of predictability. It makes sense not to allow someone the full use of their arms and legs to attack you. So if you can control one side of your attacker then they have to use/attack with their other side. I hope this helps. These are simple concepts that my students are able to replicate in practice and reality. Thanks for watching.
my respect to you si fu. i ve watched many of your videos and i have taken lots of keys out of them. i would like to see tan sau traping combine with jat sau possible applications. thanks
While this is a nice demonstration of principles of simplicity (not chasing hands, and sticking to the center line), I prefer outside defenses in which incoming straight punches are not parried to the inside of the body, but to the outside. This creates more space to move in and dominate the attack. If you parry to the inside, you might still get hit, particularly if the attacker is quick. Outside defenses allow for greater overall control.
In all honesty, your teaching style, your demeanour and your smile. Makes these videos a pleasure to watch and learn from. Very informative, relaxed and easy to follow. Very pleased to have found them on RUclips. By the way, I thought it was Dion Dublin the First time I watched. 😂😂😂😂
+Jai Mcgee Thanks for the additional information. You make a valid point that how or where you stand at a start of a fight also gives you a degree of predictability. Thanks again for watching.
Shouldn't the attacker have a bit more variety? Constant roundhouse punches aren't the only way to punch out there. Some opponents will throw upper cuts, jabs and straight punches.
Fight science Hello.greetings from Terence mdhluli.what you do Is really helpful and I would like to ask,how to train and improve your technique without a partner to spar with?
In reality it's difficult to answer that question, but I do think the key thing is to get control of one of the attackers arms as soon as possible that way the situation becomes more predictable. Thanks for watching.
+Fight SCIENCE That's why it takes a good teacher who knows these little bits of elusively obvious information to complete the system. Wing Chun is so simple and direct, but it's the little tweaks that make it work. You're doing a great job, so thanks for that!
It's really an awesome video.....I learned alot from you Sir.....😃.....will you plz tell me that can a punch to a person's face kill that person or it's unlikely???.....THANK YOU.....😃
You always seem to strke on your second movement , or sometimes third , I never see your 4th or 5th etc , so what would happen if you had to deal with a high level wing man ?
I'm getting it,I've seen guys/girls defended themselves by kicking a guy in the balls, defending yourself by punching in the solar plexus is same as kicking they, the aggressor, are open because they mostly have their fist hovering around their face.
This stuff is awesome. It looks impressive and makes solid sense. Great practical advice. The problem with me is; I'm incredibly dozy and dim witted and also a truly terrible chess player. So when it comes to trouble I always use the same, failsafe technique which has resulted in me never losing a fight in the zero fights I've had over the years - I just run away.
Ha ha.... running is the all time best self defence strategy my friend. Why fight when you can walk away. Thank you for watching, your comment definitely made me smile. Have a great day.
Sir does wing chun really help in real life ? Does it help with sparing or survival purpose or surviving multiple attacker situation? I thought Krav maga is a street survival martial art ? Is it true that grapples and wrestlers are very strong and not easy to handle them as they have strong ground work ? I really like your style for sure sir . Regards
ASHISH SINHA Im sorry he didnt answer, Im a martial arts nerd and practicioner too and I think it does help in real life, please do remember that its always the fighter not the art. Krav Maga focuses on dirty fighting and ending a confrontation as quick as you can, rarely it had sparring (or so Ive heard) but a kick to the groin which is its specialty sure is effective in a scuffle. Before switching to BJJ due to a shoulder injury, I have wrestled in my junior days and Id say that wrestlers are tough due to our training program and conditioning. Wrestlers are probably tougher than football players in terms of conditioning and endurance as they are very explosive and can remain explosive for a long period of time, be wary when facing them. Hope that answers your questions.
This is self defense for a trained fighter, not for an average person who is being attacked by a person who is bigger, stronger, faster. In most cases the attacker is bigger, stronger, faster because if He wan't He wouldn't attack you.
Well the obvious advice is to use your height and range to keep him at bay, but I shouldn't really be encouraging you to fight this guy. Isn't there another way of resolving the problem without fighting? You said he's intimidating you. Well that is something you have direct control over. In other words, don't let him make you feel bad, then he can't intimidate you. Have you seen our video on Facing Fear and Intimidation? see: ruclips.net/video/_ZBmGZje8KM/видео.html. This will help you better.
Go watch FightTips on youtube, non of this ninja shit works. Probably best if you hang out with our friends alot that way they can back you up if this dude wants to fight you.
I wanna see you fight. like for real. Not in training with one of your students, I want to see you either in the cage, the ring, or the streets against a real fighter who really wants to hurt you. I wanna see how you actually perform under pressure before I can trust what you say in your videos.
+Zach Walter Zach, there's plenty of videos of me sparring with a range of people and levels, including the then current English Heavy Weight boxing champion, although this wasn't a fight it does show me putting many of the ideas that I teach into practice. Please see our channel for a overview of our videos. As for me fighting today, honestly... I am too old. I'm happy to coach and train with my full contact fighters, many of which train for (and win) MMA, K1, San Da, Semi pro- boxing, and submission fighting. As for fighting in the street who wants to go to prison to prove a point on RUclips. Especially at my age. Thank you for your comment.
That's the modest of a true master. Nothing to prove, nothing to demostrate. I'm pretty sure that you Sifu are a fighting beast even at your "age", I have seen your reflexes and your strenght, and also and not less important your automatic responses, and they are very capable to deal with most of the thugs over there . I was in a good number of street fights with both victories and painful defeats, and for that I guess I speak with certain knowingly. Please keep the channel this way.
I wish that I had just a fraction of this guy's knowledge/ability.
fight science your reality based wing chun videos are the best out there.
Thank you very much. You've made our day.
batman calal hell no. try. pankration more useful in street fight. the world ain't a dojo

2:05 slow motion is really helpful
Great tips,thanks and keep smiling bro 👍👍.
Lovely flowing moves, reminds me of a guy I trained under in the 70/80s ken long. Nice and simple very effective. Top job
All your videos demonstrate good strategies. Thanks for sharing them
Thank you Sir.
High level stuff indeed. Great to watch.
+Frank O'Kelly Thank you very much.
Used to train under Sifu Frearson (ITSWA) and Kamon ( sifu Kevin Chan). Kamon was more reality based Wing Chun defence (like these videos) whilst ITSWA was more traditional Wing Chin. I enjoy these videos. Lot of food for thought
A great educational tool and unlike many others there's no ad language so it's suitable to show & educate younger people! Kudos.
+mkkravist11 thank you very much my friend. Much appreciated. 😀
....I meant to say bad language and thank YOU, Fight SCIENCE! my guess is that your channel is about to go to the next level.
In kempo-jutsu, we were 80% hands, 20% low kicks, and a good arsenal of locks and throws.

Great video Dr.Phillips !!!!
Excellent and clearly explained advice not like half of the bs I see on RUclips if I lived nearer I'd be at your training facility in heartbeat
+jamie the don yes shame you're not nearby, we love to have like minded people around us. Have a great day my friend.
Brilliant video sifu with lots of great clips and info. G
Thank you George.
Rational strategy. Great lesson. Great video.
excellent advice
Thank you
This was my problem for a long time, chasing the arms instead of sticking with the center line. Thanks for this lesson sifu
superb - best on yt. many thx

Need to join this academy! Keep up the great work!
Not sure who is showing the best vids,you or master Wong. Like both for different reasons.
I try to learn from both. Also check out nick from code red defense cause he’s got a lot of great self defence tips too.
Jerald Cuccurullo haven't tried Wong. Lyte Burly 52 blocks boxing are pretty cool videos too
my respect to you si fu. i ve watched many of your videos and i have taken lots of keys out of them. i would like to see tan sau traping combine with jat sau possible applications. thanks

would really love to see some raw chi sao or sparring footage!

By the way, I thought it was Dion Dublin the First time I watched. 😂😂😂😂
Great video sifu
+won93r Thank you for watching.
I like your style a Wing Chun is very insightful do you happen to have anything with your actual sparring with equipment on full contact
Good Videos like always!!
+Jai Mcgee Thank you.
Great video! .
+Real Tuff Thank you for watching.
Thank you for posting
I'm trying to find the videos where u guys are wingchun sparring.
SUUUUUUUUPER SIR
that's pretty good .. also using good positioning skills is always good to use
+Jai Mcgee Thanks for the additional information. You make a valid point that how or where you stand at a start of a fight also gives you a degree of predictability. Thanks again for watching.
Shouldn't the attacker have a bit more variety? Constant roundhouse punches aren't the only way to punch out there. Some opponents will throw upper cuts, jabs and straight punches.
His advice and techniques has literally showed me to defense myself not one opponent, but two. I hope he shows submission moves.

Fight science Hello.greetings from Terence mdhluli.what you do Is really helpful and I would like to ask,how to train and improve your technique without a partner to spar with?
Its all very technical
Great video Sifu ,would you take control by making the first contact or wait for them to throw the first punch? Thank you for grew videos
In reality it's difficult to answer that question, but I do think the key thing is to get control of one of the attackers arms as soon as possible that way the situation becomes more predictable. Thanks for watching.
This is one of those tactics that reveals itself to be an “elusive obvious." I sometimes thing as Wing Chun as the art of the elusive obvious.
+SgtTravisBickle yet so many people fail to see the obvious. Especially in Wing Chun. Thanks for watching.
+Fight SCIENCE That's why it takes a good teacher who knows these little bits of elusively obvious information to complete the system. Wing Chun is so simple and direct, but it's the little tweaks that make it work. You're doing a great job, so thanks for that!
+SgtTravisBickle thank you very much for the kind words, it's much appreciated.
спасибо
Which is better paking at rist or paking at forarm
sir how to fight a big and tall guy
It's really an awesome video.....I learned alot from you Sir.....😃.....will you plz tell me that can a punch to a person's face kill that person or it's unlikely???.....THANK YOU.....😃
You're unlikely to kill a person by punching them in the face, however they may die from a fall and bang to their head. Thanks for watching.
You always seem to strke on your second movement , or sometimes third , I never see your 4th or 5th etc , so what would happen if you had to deal with a high level wing man ?
Make the first or second punch or kick count as you don't want to be around too long as he might get the better of you or friends turn up.
I'm getting it,I've seen guys/girls defended themselves by kicking a guy in the balls, defending yourself by punching in the solar plexus is same as kicking they, the aggressor, are open because they mostly have their fist hovering around their face.

This is self defense for a trained fighter, not for an average person who is being attacked by a person who is bigger, stronger, faster. In most cases the attacker is bigger, stronger, faster because if He wan't He wouldn't attack you.
bello i práctica kunfu .kicking sort distance push andy kick
That's great to hear. Thanks for watching.
They shots take hours of practice for people who only know a bit it's too difficult too do
I'm a 13 year old with a guy intimidating me at school and the fight will happen he's smaller but chunkier and I'm taller and leaner , tips?
Well the obvious advice is to use your height and range to keep him at bay, but I shouldn't really be encouraging you to fight this guy.

Boss how to defend oneself from knife, sword and gun
I was threatened with a knife, all I could do is talk myself out of it.
What to do when attacker keep shouting at me without doing anything
Walk away as they don't want to fight. It's just a dog barking.
Mate that guy was going slow motion in a real fight you wouldn’t have time to react it will just happen in the blink of an eye
Hiiii l am from India l can't understand what you saying so please tell in hindi aur translate it please
have never seem a ufc fighter that uses wing chun techniques..only on some rare occasions by anderson Silva that too just for showboating
Woah there sherlock
is this mauy thai
Eddie Omahony lol no. Wing Chun
Or you could just smile at me and we would have to be best friends.
If you are fighting a trained fighter of most arts, these techniques will get your azz kicked!
poor George always getting jacked in the chest in every video...
so an EASY WAY to Finish a Fight is to hold one arm of the opponent??
SpAek mor not action
Bad title.
