I'm so grateful for people like you going into detail about forms. They can be difficult to understand and demonstration of each movement improves fighting.
I just started wing Chun and you are answering many of the questions I have about applications of the forms. It should be parts of the classes to learn the fight applications for real life encounters.
Excellent series of videos on Sil Lum Tao. I practised the form for many years without knowing its applications. I especially liked the humorous way you explain things. Thanks again.
Mark Lyn awesome! Glad to help - and that’s exactly why we did it, so that people would understand the reasons behind the action. Thanks for watching and the input.
Actually, I have about 50 years experience in a variety of martial arts and 10 at least in Win Chun. I obviously didn't know a thing about the forms even though I have trained with 2 Yip Man students before. This was a real eye opener for me! Many thanks.
with extensive over looks of certain apps in my training. I came in with doubt thinking youd be relaying unrealistic perspectives and well, you've actually proved me wrong and shared exactly what I've learned. Great video!
Thank you SO much for this series - as someone who is not a natural brawler but wants to know martial arts for self defense and because it interests me, this is absolutely invaluable.
Thank you for the who, what, how, and why you use a movement. Your explanations are clear and informative. I agree with you on practicing with the proper mindset and not being limited by the fundamentalist approach.
I miss my friend Kenan , who showed me Wing Chun...before I had low confidence, and I felt good and empowered by his one on one training...I went to a Wing Chun class they showed me forms, etc with little one on one training, that made me feel bad .... so please take my advise, when a student quits, in many cases, you failed him.....the spirit of martial arts is love of what your doing , nothing else 💝💝😍
Wish you would make a dvd series that cover the whole system in detail,i would buy it.I have spent thousands of dollars over the years on wing chun dvds and your youtube videos have given me more information than all of them put together.
fernando linton wow. Such high praise! I truly appreciate it and I’m delighted that my efforts can help you and others understand (and apply!) the art we all love. So, thanks for that. As for the rest of the system, we’re planning training camps and a Patreon page, so stay tuned. We’ll keep youtube-land updated.
I can tell by your wing chun that you are trained in the Wong Shun Leung system. It is very familiar and reminds me of my past training sessions. Good stuff! Very detailed and a lot of focus on structure and physics. Thank you!
WingChunBoyz actually, I’m not. I’m a huge admirer of the great WSL, though. Certainly, I study his work and ideas - so it’s flattering to hear you say that. Thanks for watching.
Greenville Academy of Martial Arts yes my friend! You have very good skill. My coach trains in JKD with Paul Vunak. He incorporates his jkd to into his Ving Tsun. We emphasize structure and body mechanics. I’ve met Uncle David Peterson, he came to visit and held a weekend seminar in Los Angeles. Very nice man and skilled as well.
Hey man I love your videos. I wish your Academy was in my area, we dont have much of anything. I learned the first two forms over fifteen years ago and was getting to the wooden dummy applications before my teacher left. I am back at it now trying to remember it all lol. I like your sense of humor and the way you do this is really great!
Great points at 31:00 and following about hitting with power, blasting through. And fist relaxation, clenching as you punch through the target. Even at short distance of 6-12” you can generate a lot of power by starting relaxed, shooting the hand forwards, and clenching as you punch, and then if you add weight shift, hip turn it boosts it more. I love watching clips of Bruce Lee doing that, loose,... then BAM!
This is an interesting series. I like seeing different peoples’ explanations and interpretations, I blend them with our sifu’s info and others. It opens the mind to new possibilities. Nice work.
Im going on the 3rd video of Sifu Jason, and he is the real deal. I cant stop watching him. Very informative. I bet he is a great teacher. Wish I lived in South Carolina
So far the best explanation on youtube. Very detailed and clear tell of wing chun. A very effective and good martial art. I study hung gar and wing chun is definitely a good art. Thank you.
Hi Sifu big fan from Dublin Ireland, you've manage to simplify and break down Wing chun better than anyone I've come across, great job, I study wingtzun/KravMaga...
Greetings from the UK 😁. Enjoying your bids guys, lots of interesting conversations! As a rule of thumb I always teach ( 15 years in WC) that tan sau should NEVER be used in a non contact position as it is (99 times out of 100) going to collapse. Great stuff, and thanks for sharing 👍
greetings from france, the explicanations about tools and lines are very clear. bong sao explanation in order to protect the shoulder is very good. i really like the practical way you teach, as a young teacher myself.
Thanks so much for the input - and glad to help. Hope everything is going well for you in France and best of luck teaching and bringing up the next generation in our great art!
Makes sense now. I'm not a wingchun student. But I tried to learn from RUclips! (3 basic forms siu nim Tao, chum kiu, bil ji ). I did them because I felt awesome just doing that(I felt like I was ip man!lol). Even though I didn't know its purpose! 😅. Then I took shorin ryu karate and dedicated totally to that. I see many similarities between kakedamishi drill we have in karate and chi Sao drills now!. I guess a lil bit wingchun can improve my karate!.
I always thought, the rotating pulling movements before the last chain punches are to get my hands free when you grap it. But anyway, you see how many details and applications are hidden in this "little" idea... Great! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience! I´m always glad to see other points of view to enhance the own stuff...
GREAT STUFF SIFU- THANK YOU. I SEE OTHER VIDEOS THAT TEACH YOU TO LOCK UP AND I SAW THE SAME PROBLEM, IF OPPONENT HAS KNIFE IT ISOVER. THEY TEACH LIKE THEY ARE IN HIGH SCHOOL COMPETITION. YOU ARE TEACHING PRACTICAL STREET FIGHTING. MORE VIDEOS PLEASE!! ALSO, WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT WOULD LOVE COME TRAIN WITH YOU FOR WEEK.
In the Jen Tao Do system I have studied, they call what you call a fuk sao an ox jaw, which I really prefer instead of palm heel straight (mainly what is taught in the system applied more from a head on position). But once again I am learning application to Is Lum Tao beyond how it could be applied to Chi Sao. Thank you very much Sifu.
certainly a knowledgeable person. upgrades the level of the 1st form application. thanks for sharing. excellent. a must to watch for every WT practitioner.
First and for most I want to say thank you very much for such great wing chun videos and applications. It has really opened my eye and mind to see the real focus and idea behind this art. They are so many lies, imagery, and imagination of wing chun it very hard to know what is correct. You have helped me understand the finger pointing to the moon. By the way you jokes are funny lol. Hopefully one I'll come and pay you guys a visit in the future and train with you guys. God bless thank you again
I just am transfixed on your videos so much great information . Going to have to figure out a way to get down there from Connecticut to start to train. I did do Martial arts many years ago for about 10 years, but haven't worked out in many years . Keep up the good work.
Harry Ortiz cool. So glad you’re enjoying the videos and they’ve ignited a passion for Wing Chun in you! We’d love to have you train with us sometime if you can make it down. We have training camps you can join sometime and we have a patreon channel we’re getting ready to put up too. Keep checking the channel and we’ll have updates and links.
I really liked your thoughts on the form and seeing concepts and application so clearly and explaining it very well. It was a great mental exercise to learn from you and you are a good teacher. You can prevent someone from following the line and getting under and through a tan sau by keeping your elbow in, but if you do that tan it has even worse rotator cuff weakness issues so you have to know what you are defending. And I think you can use a bong lap bong tan lap type of defense against a hook only because of the next hand ... The bong slows it down a milisecond to get the other hand on the other side of it and it's a sideways block. I saw evandeer holyfield block tysons punch with an outward firearm block once. But that is really hard. For hook punches if it's a long looping hook I'll gate block it if I'm stronger but I see how that's risky. Up close I do still gate block but often I use the boxers helmet block. It's best to use your forward energy. That's why you are doing that is because it's correct. Does it work best ... That's the most functional idea is to move forward. forward pushing energy with structure and backward pulling energy as a lot of strength and is extremely that's like one of the most tactical things.
I like your interpretation of different hands. I have seen Wong Shon Leung lineage differ from Ton-Sau from Duncan Leung. I disagree with your statement about the Ton-Sau against the hook. If you use a Ton-Sau in a whipping motion, shift or step in the direction of the attack; the Motion of the Ton-Sau will not only attack the hook; but will cause immense pain. As you shift or step; the opposite hand punches or palms his center mass. Wing Chun has more than one center of attack; once you shift you create multiple centers. I have used this several times in training, against different schools, and in the bars. Otherwise, interesting video.
38 minutes! You went all out for this final Siu Lim Tao coverage. Much appreciated. As far video ideas, I am seeing you recite Siu Lim Tao and Chum Kiu from three years ago, but where are the Biu Jee sections?
I like that you understood so many different groups or traditions of Wing Chun I agree with your thoughts on gate blocking low knives and weapons and that you won't see them in time I've seen them in time I've been attacked with weapons but it's true sometimes you won't see them. I also agree that you can defend an overextended taanvsau that's the best I can do I'm in the middle of stuff by bringing your arm back with a lower elbow with a jut and I think it's good to identify earlyI don't know everything right so you know who knows but I think it's good to identify early if you should keep your elbow in when you use your sky Palm. I really like Bruce Lee I like that you mentioned flexible thinking and being practical in a real situation ... I've seen your other videos some of them and I like your ideas on the intercepting fist I don't think that that is something that is only g kundo I think that is both Wing Chun in-gee kundo so voice text is failing very badly I think I'm going to get off. keep up the good work and there's a lot of things that I agree with you it I still don't think that it is impossible to block a hook with a bong but I think that if you do that the key is to be on the outside of the hookand to use your other hand you're going to need your other hand to block it so you want to be on the outside and in front of the hook when you block it and the bong is just slowing it down and putting it in a place where your other hand can get to it whereas if you just tried to use a cross sky Palm I guess that could work I don't know it's hard to get that timing right and it's hard to get that strength in your frame right in time to deal with that type of attack. Some people want to point out that cross blocks are always wrong or mistakes yeah just that I have awarenessand I understand that but there are so many times when I believe that you need a cross-block for many many reasons one example is you've only got one arm left and you're about to be hit another example would be you're dealing with a knife or something like that and you need to block on the same side twice and you don't want to use the same arm you're going to switch arms ... Unfortunately I was attacked with a knife before and I saw it ahead of time. just keep coming through relevant I think that pretty much all Kung Fu at least the way I feel I feel like all Kung Fu should involve Jeep commando I hope voice text gets that right Shaolin and Wing Chun those are all great types of kung fu and the rest of the types really help support those styles I don't know if you can use those other styles on their own very well but it's a shame a very functional practical styleKung Fu which is great for self-defense and is great for sport it's too bad that people don't like it now I think that is a terribledirections for society to go because it's sew creative it has so many answers for people some of them they don't need some of them they need but it's just so exhaustive it's got so much in it it's just a shame to see people not like it and it's also true that people don't need more answers they need to keep be better at what they already do but I think it's good to have that understanding ... Maybe understanding and different answers might be different concepts i don't know. Good job. Just good job. Nice. Entertaining. I enjoy Kung Fu. I'm in Kentucky or I'd stop by.
Davis Barr ; tan sau punch is used to block hooks and attack at the same time, if you step in you can fire your block at their bicep which stops them dead and can incapacitate the arm. Try in training with someone gentle. It depends on the maturity of the strike or it's distance but if someone cocks their arm back they will be in trouble if they throw as you come in. Ouchee!
Great videos. I see some Wong Shun Leung Ving Tsun there; can't go wrong with WSL ving tsun. Again, great demonstration of the application form The Little Idea!
Soldiers get a double arm tie-up if someone might have a weapon, Bicep Control + underhook or wrist control. I'm not saying never block but Marines, Seals, Police, etc train bjj, wrestling, for weapons ontop of striking
Thanks a ton for your videos, after watching your videos I tried few techniques with my son , my thumb finger is bruised during the process, How to manage the thumb Meaning how should.i postion my thumb so that it is not hit or damaged...
Dear Sifu Jason, in this video the SLT side palm starts from the side, however in the SLT course on your website, you start it from the middle. Is it an important diference? Thank you!
No. It’s just that there are variations in the applications of the principle and structure. What we try and show is that the structural foundation and principles are key and people should be free to improvise from them. That keeps us from the errors of tyranny (hyper-traditionalism…don’t change a thing, just mindlessly conform) and anarchy (everyone does whatever they feel like, regardless of whether or not the foundation is compromised). Great question. Thanks for asking, and for watching.
12:39 we should always point TAN towards his outside shoulder. Never center or we get hit. Weird. But true.. if I’m outside then towards his shoulder works. If I’m inside it points outwards
Western boxing shifts position every now and then. But I can understand your point of adding something to the technique thereby giving you an increased chance of winning the fight. The original wing chun does not shift position like western boxing. We do shift yes but not too wide. We use side stepping and pivoting.
Thanks for making your videos, their great. However when you show an application of a form, have the attacker come at you full speed. A Western Boxers jab for instance, isn't just going to "hang out there". If the attacker is attacking you slowly, respond slowly (in any given demonstration). How does Sil Lum Tao apply to a constantly moving, bobbing and weaving, hard jabbing and even hared crossing opponent? Too many YT instructors do this: they show a fast response to a slow attack. I understand it for the purposes of instruction, but in real life it's not going to happen that way. Thanks again for your videos they are helpful and and informative. ✌️
7:31 (Bruce Lee) according to SIJO right J he has us with our front strong hand ✋ stay out like a fencer.. well, the HUEN SAO is particularly good when the line is in a FIXED ACTION. Huen sao helps us let go.💰✅
How does wing chun deal with take downs. I mean what do you do if you are taken down? I am not trying to trip you up. I am really curious. I ask because I had a fight with a guy I to wrestling and I was screwed. I am not a martial artist but I am good in a fight for whatever reason, but on the ground I am beat.
Excellent instructions. If you put out an online course i will definitely sign up. I'm learning wsl system from another part of the world and i don't find coaches/instructors able to articulate real world applications as well as you have done here. Bravo!
jchien that’s awesome! Thanks for the feedback. We do have online instruction coming soon and will keep you guys updated so you can become Academy members from wherever you are in the world! Until then, welcome to our family!
Diederik De Vries i understood u need live instructions and interaction to learn a martial art properly, if that's ur point. I agree. FYI, I am studying wing chun with a coach but find it beneficial watching other instructors' explanation/interpretation, preferably based on real fighting experience. Wing Chun is a theory heavy system but the majority of chunners dare i say even some instructors don't have any real fighting experience. I find Sifu Jason's explanation thought provoking, helping me better understand when and how to apply the techniques I've learned in class. For example, gan sao. My coach first explained u can block a body hook or a kick with it. My previous karate competition experience taught me u cannot block a kick with a downward hand block (i broke my wrist) and my boxing experience taught me a body hook may be too powerful and the extended hand block leaves u way too open. Sifu Jason's point on using gan sao to prevent a possible knife attack in a street situation rings true and shows much experience and thought behind his presentation. Anyways, happy training.
This sifu's technical application is very good. His one mistake is he does not know the truth about Sil Bin Tap. His applicational crosses is chasing arms.
@@JKDandWingChun great video . i have a question about the bong sau part .. You said if you put so mutch on your shoulder it could burn out it sound so freek to me , because i think it's really happend to me like 4 years ago and i feel so bad for this i mean i can move my shoulder , i can do all of the mooves but still hurts too much qhen it comes to real exersising my right shoulder .. So if you have any advices can help me recover my shoulder to get back to my training ill appreciate 🙏🙏 and keep goong your awesome 💪
@@vartuolosaadeldin8923 sorry about your shoulder. Though I’d first advise you to have a doctor check it out, you can also try to strengthen the small muscles by placing your upper arm against your body and using a very light dumbbell (a pound or two at most!) and bring your hand away from your body without moving the elbow or upper arm. Go very, very slow. This will strengthen the shoulder and, depending upon the issue, take the pain away. Hope that helps.
Andy Bauer hi, Andy and thanks for watching. Unfortunately, I’m not too familiar with the Windy City but I’m pretty sure that’s where Dominick Izzo is. You could look him up. If anyone else knows someone up there let us know. But, either way, I don’t have an affiliate up there. I’ve got an instructor in Madison, WI though. And if all that doesn’t work, you can join our online Academy too. Thanks again and good luck. Just let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.
Good video and explaination..The tan sao can work against the boxers hook if you demonstrate it as a tan da then it would be harder for the opponent to get off the other punch while you defend and attack at the same time, followed by multiple strikes after the first initial hit.
If you have tried having a partner hook punch you, increasing the force, you feel that a plain tan sao is not stromg enough. Plus if you meet his elbow his arm will fold and hit you in the face. I much prefer the fak sau/biu type arm interception, it is much stronger, you can slam the other arm into attackers neck as you keep inside the arc, then grab and knee them.
Matthias633 yes, but if your opponents force is too much on a punch when employing a tan sao then you should immediately switch to bong sao to redirect his energy.
If nothing else, these movements are good dynamic stretching. let's face it, static stretching boring as hell. 😀 As we get older, we're not as flexible as we used to be. You know you're old when you get up in the morning, the first thing you do is check the obituary section of the morning paper, if you didn't see your name on the list, then you can start stretching 😀Don't get me wrong, I still love chasing women at my age, but now, once I catch them, I don't know what the hell to do with them. 😀 BTW, love all your videos. new sub here. Love the way u explain things. 😀
Good video for the class room setting But as a seasoned practioner in wing chun different in the street and a non compliant opponent.a must for these techniques spar all out even spar with someone who doesnt know wing chun a good boxer or mma that is how you will know if any of your techniques will work on the street
Mark Cohen because EVERYONE on the street (or any where a fight might happen) does boxing or MMA, I'm fed up of everyone just saying that like a bunch of parrots, if you do Wing Chun you should know, or at least believe, that Wing Chun can holds its own against a boxer or MMA fighter (they most likely won't be professionals) if you don't believe this then don't do Wing Chun do them styles
@@ninjafeet7915 yes I understand this I been doing wing chun for over 20 yrs 10 of those years was with moy yat.and I deal with agression and violence just about every day as I work in corrections.and most practioners they dont know what real violence or aggression is wing works of course if you make it your own.and also wing chun sifus get destroyed out on the street from just someone who can scrap.wing chun makes your odds better of course.Will it make you invincible like alot of wing chun practioners think.like you I also train in diffrent arts wing chun,jkd,krav maga as well.there is just not enough free sparring in schools it is all about chi sao great but does not prepare you for real life violence
I thought tan-sau was beggars hand! Also, I saw a video of the WHOLE first form which incorporates footwork which wasn't taught by Ip Man's teacher because of lack of space.
I'm so grateful for people like you going into detail about forms. They can be difficult to understand and demonstration of each movement improves fighting.
I just started wing Chun and you are answering many of the questions I have about applications of the forms. It should be parts of the classes to learn the fight applications for real life encounters.

But that is really hard. For hook punches if it's a long looping hook I'll gate block it if I'm stronger but I see how that's risky.
Up close I do still gate block but often I use the boxers helmet block.
It's best to use your forward energy.
That's why you are doing that is because it's correct.
Does it work best ... That's the most functional idea is to move forward.
forward pushing energy with structure and backward pulling energy as a lot of strength and is extremely that's like one of the most tactical things.
Your very experienced
@@JKDVIPER thank you you too
I like your interpretation of different hands. I have seen Wong Shon Leung lineage differ from Ton-Sau from Duncan Leung. I disagree with your statement about the Ton-Sau against the hook. If you use a Ton-Sau in a whipping motion, shift or step in the direction of the attack; the Motion of the Ton-Sau will not only attack the hook; but will cause immense pain. As you shift or step; the opposite hand punches or palms his center mass. Wing Chun has more than one center of attack; once you shift you create multiple centers. I have used this several times in training, against different schools, and in the bars. Otherwise, interesting video.
Very, very neatly explained. Love that ‘handy’ joke haha.
Gives me something to study during covid
Please send
Simply amazing stuff 🙏🙏🙏
Looking forward to more content.
Would appreciate to see your take on grappling and takedown prevention and /or recovery.
Erlend Kristensen good ideas!! Thanks for watching
Absolutely loving your videos
38 minutes! You went all out for this final Siu Lim Tao coverage. Much appreciated. As far video ideas, I am seeing you recite Siu Lim Tao and Chum Kiu from three years ago, but where are the Biu Jee sections?
Great video shifu you teach in very simple way
I like that you understood so many different groups or traditions of Wing Chun I agree with your thoughts on gate blocking low knives and weapons and that you won't see them in time I've seen them in time I've been attacked with weapons but it's true sometimes you won't see them. I also agree that you can defend an overextended taanvsau that's the best I can do I'm in the middle of stuff by bringing your arm back with a lower elbow with a jut and I think it's good to identify earlyI don't know everything right so you know who knows but I think it's good to identify early if you should keep your elbow in when you use your sky Palm. I really like Bruce Lee I like that you mentioned flexible thinking and being practical in a real situation ... I've seen your other videos some of them and I like your ideas on the intercepting fist I don't think that that is something that is only g kundo I think that is both Wing Chun in-gee kundo so voice text is failing very badly I think I'm going to get off. keep up the good work and there's a lot of things that I agree with you it I still don't think that it is impossible to block a hook with a bong but I think that if you do that the key is to be on the outside of the hookand to use your other hand you're going to need your other hand to block it so you want to be on the outside and in front of the hook when you block it and the bong is just slowing it down and putting it in a place where your other hand can get to it whereas if you just tried to use a cross sky Palm I guess that could work I don't know it's hard to get that timing right and it's hard to get that strength in your frame right in time to deal with that type of attack. Some people want to point out that cross blocks are always wrong or mistakes yeah just that I have awarenessand I understand that but there are so many times when I believe that you need a cross-block for many many reasons one example is you've only got one arm left and you're about to be hit another example would be you're dealing with a knife or something like that and you need to block on the same side twice and you don't want to use the same arm you're going to switch arms ... Unfortunately I was attacked with a knife before and I saw it ahead of time. just keep coming through relevant I think that pretty much all Kung Fu at least the way I feel I feel like all Kung Fu should involve Jeep commando I hope voice text gets that right Shaolin and Wing Chun those are all great types of kung fu and the rest of the types really help support those styles I don't know if you can use those other styles on their own very well but it's a shame a very functional practical styleKung Fu which is great for self-defense and is great for sport it's too bad that people don't like it now I think that is a terribledirections for society to go because it's sew creative it has so many answers for people some of them they don't need some of them they need but it's just so exhaustive it's got so much in it it's just a shame to see people not like it and it's also true that people don't need more answers they need to keep be better at what they already do but I think it's good to have that understanding ... Maybe understanding and different answers might be different concepts i don't know. Good job. Just good job. Nice. Entertaining. I enjoy Kung Fu.
I'm in Kentucky or I'd stop by.
@DavidBarr Thanks for the novel ! 😅😆😀😁😂😃
@@riomyself2438 write..?
Davis Barr ; tan sau punch is used to block hooks and attack at the same time, if you step in you can fire your block at their bicep which stops them dead and can incapacitate the arm. Try in training with someone gentle. It depends on the maturity of the strike or it's distance but if someone cocks their arm back they will be in trouble if they throw as you come in. Ouchee!
Excellent video I desagree only in the tuk sao application and in de gum sao aplication.
Excellent Instruction!
Great videos. I see some Wong Shun Leung Ving Tsun there; can't go wrong with WSL ving tsun. Again, great demonstration of the application form The Little Idea!
Thank you for sharing! Thanks from Texas.
nice video, great explanations of Wing Chun Techniques.
Soldiers get a double arm tie-up if someone might have a weapon, Bicep Control + underhook or wrist control. I'm not saying never block but Marines, Seals, Police, etc train bjj, wrestling, for weapons ontop of striking
Excellent again. The last few minutes where you look like you're brushing the other arm, demo is too fast for me to duplicate
Very handy .lol
Excellent Jason
if we use these, jesse's kata bunkai's, and ramsey's qna with a coach+will that work, and apply them, we should be golden lol
Absolutely awesome stuff :) Well explained! Many thanks :)
Wish you guys were up here in Michigan!
Thanks a ton for your videos, after watching your videos I tried few techniques with my son , my thumb finger is bruised during the process, How to manage the thumb Meaning how should.i postion my thumb so that it is not hit or damaged...
Very helpful! And funny too :D thank you!
Yea I had my shoulder burn out from too much pushing horse. I've stopped using bong Sao almost all together. Circle all day haha.
Dear Sifu Jason, in this video the SLT side palm starts from the side, however in the SLT course on your website, you start it from the middle.
Is it an important diference?
Thank you!
No. It’s just that there are variations in the applications of the principle and structure. What we try and show is that the structural foundation and principles are key and people should be free to improvise from them. That keeps us from the errors of tyranny (hyper-traditionalism…don’t change a thing, just mindlessly conform) and anarchy (everyone does whatever they feel like, regardless of whether or not the foundation is compromised).
Great question. Thanks for asking, and for watching.
12:39 we should always point TAN towards his outside shoulder. Never center or we get hit. Weird. But true.. if I’m outside then towards his shoulder works. If I’m inside it points outwards
Western boxing shifts position every now and then. But I can understand your point of adding something to the technique thereby giving you an increased chance of winning the fight. The original wing chun does not shift position like western boxing. We do shift yes but not too wide. We use side stepping and pivoting.
Greetings from Argentina !! Very good !!
much respect to 3 great videos thanks for sharing
grant davies glad - and humbled - to be of service. Thanks for watching.
excellent teacher !!! thanks.
diamon dave 🙏. Thanks.
Cool thanks, is it normal before I practice wing chun watch a Bruce Lee movie or the IP man movie?
Great video! Thank you!
Thanks for making your videos, their great. However when you show an application of a form, have the attacker come at you full speed. A Western Boxers jab for instance, isn't just going to "hang out there". If the attacker is attacking you slowly, respond slowly (in any given demonstration). How does Sil Lum Tao apply to a constantly moving, bobbing and weaving, hard jabbing and even hared crossing opponent? Too many YT instructors do this: they show a fast response to a slow attack. I understand it for the purposes of instruction, but in real life it's not going to happen that way. Thanks again for your videos they are helpful and and informative. ✌️
thankkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmuuuuuuchhchhchchhhhhhh
This is very much helping video thanx sir
7:31 (Bruce Lee) according to SIJO right J he has us with our front strong hand ✋ stay out like a fencer.. well, the HUEN SAO is particularly good when the line is in a FIXED ACTION. Huen sao helps us let go.💰✅
hi im an Old Man living in the Fresno Ca. area i am looking for a school that would be on the same line of thought as your teaching any suggestions?
Do you have a video on the stance then I would like to know that?
How does wing chun deal with take downs. I mean what do you do if you are taken down? I am not trying to trip you up. I am really curious. I ask because I had a fight with a guy I to wrestling and I was screwed. I am not a martial artist but I am good in a fight for whatever reason, but on the ground I am beat.
Excellent instructions. If you put out an online course i will definitely sign up. I'm learning wsl system from another part of the world and i don't find coaches/instructors able to articulate real world applications as well as you have done here. Bravo!
jchien that’s awesome! Thanks for the feedback. We do have online instruction coming soon and will keep you guys updated so you can become Academy members from wherever you are in the world! Until then, welcome to our family!
Please don't if u really want to learn Wing Chun properly
Diederik De Vries i understood u need live instructions and interaction to learn a martial art properly, if that's ur point. I agree.
FYI, I am studying wing chun with a coach but find it beneficial watching other instructors' explanation/interpretation, preferably based on real fighting experience. Wing Chun is a theory heavy system but the majority of chunners dare i say even some instructors don't have any real fighting experience. I find Sifu Jason's explanation thought provoking, helping me better understand when and how to apply the techniques I've learned in class. For example, gan sao. My coach first explained u can block a body hook or a kick with it. My previous karate competition experience taught me u cannot block a kick with a downward hand block (i broke my wrist) and my boxing experience taught me a body hook may be too powerful and the extended hand block leaves u way too open. Sifu Jason's point on using gan sao to prevent a possible knife attack in a street situation rings true and shows much experience and thought behind his presentation. Anyways, happy training.
This sifu's technical application is very good. His one mistake is he does not know the truth about Sil Bin Tap. His applicational crosses is chasing arms.
Wait is there an episode where your just doing a form?
Awesome video breakdown sifu Jason. Cannot wait to get as good as you and sifu Aron lol
Kevin Xiong thanks, Kevin. Glad to hear the videos have helped and inspired you. And keep up the good work...you’re gonna be awesome!
@@JKDandWingChun great video . i have a question about the bong sau part .. You said if you put so mutch on your shoulder it could burn out it sound so freek to me , because i think it's really happend to me like 4 years ago and i feel so bad for this i mean i can move my shoulder , i can do all of the mooves but still hurts too much qhen it comes to real exersising my right shoulder .. So if you have any advices can help me recover my shoulder to get back to my training ill appreciate 🙏🙏 and keep goong your awesome 💪
@@vartuolosaadeldin8923 sorry about your shoulder. Though I’d first advise you to have a doctor check it out, you can also try to strengthen the small muscles by placing your upper arm against your body and using a very light dumbbell (a pound or two at most!) and bring your hand away from your body without moving the elbow or upper arm. Go very, very slow. This will strengthen the shoulder and, depending upon the issue, take the pain away. Hope that helps.
8:39 supposed to use a JUM in between the TAN and GAANG SAO motions
Great points
Hi Sifu Jason.Im in Chicago Could you recommend me a good Sifu to learn from? Thanks
Andy Bauer hi, Andy and thanks for watching. Unfortunately, I’m not too familiar with the Windy City but I’m pretty sure that’s where Dominick Izzo is. You could look him up. If anyone else knows someone up there let us know. But, either way, I don’t have an affiliate up there. I’ve got an instructor in Madison, WI though. And if all that doesn’t work, you can join our online Academy too. Thanks again and good luck. Just let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.
Good video and explaination..The tan sao can work against the boxers hook if you demonstrate it as a tan da then it would be harder for the opponent to get off the other punch while you defend and attack at the same time, followed by multiple strikes after the first initial hit.
If you have tried having a partner hook punch you, increasing the force, you feel that a plain tan sao is not stromg enough. Plus if you meet his elbow his arm will fold and hit you in the face.
I much prefer the fak sau/biu type arm interception, it is much stronger, you can slam the other arm into attackers neck as you keep inside the arc, then grab and knee them.
Matthias633 yes, but if your opponents force is too much on a punch when employing a tan sao then you should immediately switch to bong sao to redirect his energy.
Love ,as you teach, to get away from 'wooden' interpretation to many fluid ' verbs opportunities!
🙏. Thanks for watching.
If nothing else, these movements are good dynamic stretching. let's face it, static stretching boring as hell. 😀 As we get older, we're not as flexible as we used to be. You know you're old when you get up in the morning, the first thing you do is check the obituary section of the morning paper, if you didn't see your name on the list, then you can start stretching 😀Don't get me wrong, I still love chasing women at my age, but now, once I catch them, I don't know what the hell to do with them. 😀
BTW, love all your videos. new sub here. Love the way u explain things. 😀
great great keep on sifu on the other forms
muito boas as explicaçoes e as aplicaçoes.
This guy knows his stuff
Way of the Crane thanks for watching.
No, he doesn't
@@dfl_8270 Why don't you upload your own video Grandmaster Diederik. Let's see what you know. :)
Good video for the class room setting But as a seasoned practioner in wing chun different in the street and a non compliant opponent.a must for these techniques spar all out even spar with someone who doesnt know wing chun a good boxer or mma that is how you will know if any of your techniques will work on the street
Mark Cohen because EVERYONE on the street (or any where a fight might happen) does boxing or MMA, I'm fed up of everyone just saying that like a bunch of parrots, if you do Wing Chun you should know, or at least believe, that Wing Chun can holds its own against a boxer or MMA fighter (they most likely won't be professionals) if you don't believe this then don't do Wing Chun do them styles
@@ninjafeet7915 yes I understand this I been doing wing chun for over 20 yrs 10 of those years was with moy yat.and I deal with agression and violence just about every day as I work in corrections.and most practioners they dont know what real violence or aggression is wing works of course if you make it your own.and also wing chun sifus get destroyed out on the street from just someone who can scrap.wing chun makes your odds better of course.Will it make you invincible like alot of wing chun practioners think.like you I also train in diffrent arts wing chun,jkd,krav maga as well.there is just not enough free sparring in schools it is all about chi sao great but does not prepare you for real life violence
Excellent, thanks again!
Would be great if you could show us the form, do you really know wing Chun or just snippets of it 🤔
Awesome but plz make basic wing chung lessons for beginners.
Legendas em português? Gosto muito das suas aulas
Very.....interesting!
So good..
I thought tan-sau was beggars hand! Also, I saw a video of the WHOLE first form which incorporates footwork which wasn't taught by Ip Man's teacher because of lack of space.
thanks አመሰግናለው
