  • Grandmaster William Cheung demonstrates how to use the Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu techniques and principles to position oneself to the blind side, deflecting the opponents force and taking control of the opponents elbow and in turn his balance are key elements to success in fighting the Wing Chun Way. In doing so you are trapping or pinning the opponents weight either on the front foot or the back foot to make the opponent vulnerable to a strike to his or her pressure points. Once the opponent is in a compromised position they are at their most vulnerable to an accurate strike from the Pheonix knuckle. Grandmaster William Cheung and I shot this video back in 2010. Hope you enjoy it! Sifu Dom Békés

    While I lived in Japan in the late 70s into the mid-80s, Master Cheung was my instructor for several weeks while I was in the Navy. He used me as an "example" on a couple of occasions to demonstrate a kick to the shoulder then to the head. He was lightening fast; I was about 19 or 20 years old then and I was amazed at his speed! He was a very patient instructor to us Kung Fu neophytes.

      If it is a real fight, do you think you can be able to beat him using what you have learned from Navy? Respectfully, I am untrained. But I spent a lot of time looking for a disapline to learn as self defense. But I have never seen any footage of Wing Chun beating anyone. I have only seen people using it to block at close quarters.
      EG, Anderson Silva. But he is also master in Mua thai, BJJ, Boxing.. and many more.

    I learn a lot about pressure points in boxing. We didn’t spend a lot of time on it, but I found it interesting. I confirmed a lot of what I learned with a friend who has a black belt in Kung Fu. My friend got hit with an overhand right to the left cheek bone in a golden gloves match, and he described the rest of the round as fighting 2 guys in a blinding snowstorm. I used what I learned when I started coaching to gauge how much damage my fighters sustain in a match. It helps a coach decide when to throw in the towel or tell the fighter to keep going. I’ve seen many fans and coaches alike accuse a kid of quitting, when I knew for a fact they were injured.

I am a welder/ pipe fitter of 30+ yrs and i train people regularly...and the most annoying hindrance in my teaching is a student /apprentice that not only taks back to me but speaks to me like they already know the lesson ... the student should be silent and learn from old wisdom!

      I dont think so. His students havent even mastered the basics yet, but he's already teaching them too much. More looks like a demo than a real class. Real class usually really boring where the students keep repeating 1 or 2 moves and get it right for hours before they can be allowed to move to the next 'boring' thing, next month.

    Master Chung.
    I am very impressed with your techniques and philosophy. I love the way you combined the philosophy of different martial arts and acupressure points taking advantage of strand of your opponent and using it against him. Once many months ago I was involved in judo.In judo one would Use the strand of the opponent and step away to throw him out of balance. That’s sports involving the weight category are a big shooters. Stronger opponents overpower you were the superior’s physical strength and preventing you from using the proper grips and proper techniques.
    So often not the better wins wins but the stronger one. I like much better your philosophy and your techniques which make much more sense to me. I admire your philosophy in the way of your teaching . I am honored to be able to see your lessons.Sincerly Andrzej Kaminski.

    Im pretty sure Cheung grew up in Hong Kong and went to school with Bruce Lee. His brother Casey and i were very good friends in Hawaii. I use to call Casey Bruce Lee. He was a very humble kind man just like William Cheung but i can tell you a story when neighborhood tuggs wrongfully harassed Casey they did not stand a chance wrong old Chinese man to mess with. He had all of them down in seconds his hands ,feet went flying. Wow! Casey was a long distance swimmer very fit but he had bad high blood pressure because of his job and city life in Hong Kong . Moving to Hawaii suppose to give him peace of mind. Casey always told me stories of IP man ,his brother and Bruce Lee. We would have long talks about kung fu follow through continuing motion in Wing chun. Focus point is beyond your striking target. I lost contact with Casey he moved to the States east coast to be near his grand children and children. God bless you Casey Cheung & William Cheung humble masters

      Now link me to a video of them full contact fighting a fully resisting opponent.
      When you find it impossible to find such videos where all the gracies with the exact same claims (effective system, small man can beat stronger bigger man) have HOURS of footage proving their claims ask yourself honestly why.

He probably is a great source of many learned things over his years he is probably a good listener as well. His ability to observe and gently teach the technics and corrections of the discipline required to utilize these great self defense strategies that seem with some training the average violent encounter doesn't have to be a fearful experience to the average person. Thank You Mr Cheung also a kind gentlemen I can see he must have a loving wonderful family who loves him very much.

    I enjoy (respect) the use of pressure point hand strikes & using only 1 step to the side. I'm too disabled to kick & to jump around. I was told by MANY surgeons & physicians to accept being wheel chair bound. That was over 20 years ago. To me accepting a wheel chair was the same as surrendering. I've adjusted to using quick pressure point strikes & using only 1 foot step to either side or forward in rare instances . This video validates my unwillingness to stay in a wheel chair and to use ONLY effective hand strikes. Thank you 😊!

      @2niner71 The 1-inch punch is a common skill in southern kung fu systems, I'm pretty sure Cheung, as a recognized master of one, is capable of it. His claims about training under Yip Man are commonly accepted as I understand it, unless you have evidence to the contrary. When I said pure wing chun, I meant it in comparison to Bruce's JKD which is a hybrid art, not in search of a platonically "pure" wing chun, or whatever you seem to be interpreting it as.

    I was madly in love with traditional Wing Chun. Grandmaster Cheung remain steadfast and loyal to his sifu Yip Man's teachings. Bruce Lee had different views so much so that he thought traditional Wing Chun wasn't enough for him(and the rest is history may his soul rest in peace)! But for me I would stick to TWC as grandmaster Cheung. It's an honour to see Grandmaster Cheung in video.
    Besides his martial arts skills he has an admirable handwriting ability.

    To be serious, I have seen a lot of so called martial artists just showing off, especially here on RUclips.
    But this is different. What I like about it, is first of it all, the very kind and calm way of Master Cheungs teaching. Second thing is, what is shown here, really works. Does it make you invincible? Of course not. Can it makes you a better fighter? It depends on you and if you can adapt the principles shown in here. Best benefit is, a Man like Master Cheun can teach you to be a better human. Less rude, more kind.
    Even when I´m an elder Judo and Japanese Jiu-Jiutsu guy, I apreciate this lessons and try to evolve personally, by learning as much as I can.

It's what my sensei's drilled into me. Watching all styles over the years since (thank you internet), just shows it's all physics, and these masters have tapped into the most efficient ways of dealing with bio-mechanics.

      @Fisticuffs Guilde No it is not bullshit, it's knowing when and where to use these techniques, if you have your opponent under control you can then use these techniques, Trying to do a pressure point strike on a skilled, moving opponent is, I agree, difficult and not a wise thing to try! All techniques have a time and a place, if you manage to control your opponent in say, a headlock then a pressure point strike, if a strike is the right word, perhaps placing your weapon, (Thumb maybe) and applying steady pressure on the correct point is a better description.

      You are going to get hurt if you think this will protect you. It's not so much the techniques but the lack of conditioning to real intent, force, pressure and timing. Good teacher or not he would most likely lose badly in a fight against a drunken street thug with no training. Sorry everyone but this is reality. The ONLY way to become good at fighting is by fighting....

      @@FrancisMaxino That's good and very unusual, full power can only be achieved when breathing out I believe. A 9th dan TKD I trained with (Master Kim Yung Ho) said to me that all martial arts are 90% the same, the secret being relaxation and breathing, the 10% remaining being the differences in technique. Didn't really understand at the time although I do now! I did Wing Chun for years before i trained in Tae Kwon Do and we were taught to put an upward twist in the punch, connecting with the bottom 3 knuckles, kind of 90 degrees different to the Karate punch twist if you understand my meaning. This puts more power into the punch and I have never seen this demonstrated in any online Wing Chun videos. I wonder why. What do you think?

      Mr Benedictine I Boxed. We got in the ring and sparred and when you do it for real you understand that there is a vast chasm between “demonstrating “ and a real actual fight. In demonstration the partner is cooperating... its like dance where both sides know the moves. In a real fight your opponents isn’t going to do that. The punches will have way to much force to simply slap away. Look there are more than enough examples of Wing chun, akido, Ect.. practitioners getting destroyed in real fights against average MMA fighters. I was a slightly above average amateur boxer... I haven’t fight in over 15 years yet I guarantee you that my jab is STILL hard and fast enough that there is no way your catching it. Or simply redirecting it consistently in a real fight. We have seen enough MMA matches to know that a mix of grappling , wrestling, physical strength and boxing/ kickboxing easily destroyer ANY martial art alone. A DIVISION ONE wrestler shoots a double leg takedown and no wing Chung or akido move is stopping it.

      William Cheung in the 1980's in various international martial arts magazines told everyone that when he lived with Yip Man between 1955 and 1958 he inherited Traditional Wing Chun. The Wing Chun that he and the rest of Yip Man's students learnt in the school from Yip Man was the modified Wing Chun taught to Yip Man by his first master Chan Wah Shun a less efficient version. The Traditional Wing Chun being the original art passed to Yip Man from his 2nd master Leung Bik. The tradition in the original art was to pass the art from Grandmaster to Grandmaster. So to teach the art more openly but still retain the Traditional art within the family the less efficient version was taught. People hate on William Cheung because if he is right they have learnt something perceived as having less value. So they turn it around and call him the liar or the fake. Those that have learnt both methods and have some fighting experience know which is more useful. From a practical point of view most side with Cheung. So thats the reason William gets so many negative comments. In shooting the videos I let people see what he teaches so they can make up their own minds by seeing Traditional Wing Chun as its taught.
