Wing Chun vs Bigger Attackers - Adam Chan - WING CHUN VANCOUVER

[@kennethmanrodt23]

really enjoy watching your videos. appreciate your honesty and humility in your teaching style. Your ability speaks for it's self! Way too much negativity thrown at the traditional arts,especially on the internet. Nice to see the art alive and well demonstrated in your videos. ☺👍

[@JM-jd7yp]

Adam I am always so impressed by you intelligence, honestly and humility. Your videos are in a very different league. I like your emphasis on both classical correctness and your search for guiding principles. Thank you for making this knowledge available.

[@kungfuscience7911]

I love that you said you would avoid the conflict first off. Good video, good info! chop the tree down from the bottom.

[@adamchankungfu]

Thats very important for our communities. Trigger happy people are shown the door at my classes. Same reason I never show more combative stuff on the internet

[@mark72141]

First thing is to run away. How can you fight against a much taller guy with martial arts background too?

[@brianrahuba6919]

@@adamchankungfu But I can't run far or too fast I would be winded out now I'll be forced to fight and tired . I would have to fight and save my energy being 6ft at 290 pds .I'm slowly getting up my stamina up but not fast to run away yet . I don't go looking for anything but fun and good time's .

[@Thrivecast]

This dude should be more famous

[@adamchankungfu]

Thank you everyone, Happy New Year :) . For 2017 : 52 youtube episodes planned. Also our site will officially in a couple of months turned into a monthly subscription site for those who want to learn how to do the stuff - online lessons, course and live Q&A webinars.

[@WreckingKrew00]

You seem to teach a reaction form on wing Chun . Wherever the energy takes you as long as you benefit from the situation. You are quite good don't worry about haters.

[@gandalf7354]

this is what real wing chun is meant to be about. like you descrobed "wherever the energy takes you". somewhere along the way 'mainstream' wing chun lost this. it is meant to be alive and highly adaptive. most of what you see is 'dead'

[@freddyr.6828]

Never you mind those haters. As always, good stuff. l enjoy your videos Adam. There is no doubting your ability.

[@subwoofer6726]

For real, everyone wants to talk like they've been in fights or they are teachers themselves, but I don't see videos of them displaying their standpoints or evidence. It's been made clear that Adam does his homework and back his knowledge up ten fold.

[@GauteAnimationNorway]

Had my 3rd Wing Chun training today. I have seen my sifu's linage before, but decided today to look more into it than I've already done. My sifu is from the Ip Man linage, but man... I should've stayed away from KZbin and only read from the site I used to find the linage. Such cancer -_- Glade to bump into a video with some positivity.

[@wade4452]

To heck with the hater's. Good technique, great speed and I just really enjoy your instructive videos. Keep it up I enjoy every one of them. Something I would like to see is how a 68-year-old man can get back to his speed and agility.

[@TamNguyen-vw4qg]

Great moves ...I love 2 watch to students of WSL! Especially U Adam! Your WC is amazing...love it! Greetings from Germany

[@adamchankungfu]

Last episode for Wing Chun Applied Concepts. New series next week

[@Ahmathyah]

Adam Chan thank you for this video. I'm really interested in taking up an art and Wing Chung is at the top of my list.

[@BrianMcComas1978]

The bigger guy literally reacts how 99% of MMA guys do. They assume Wing Chun can't hit and can't do anything. On top of this their BJJ or Judo is often strength moves and slow. So their punches and reaction time is exactly how you saw this reaction here. Yet on KZbin....everyone's an expert and warrior lol

[@jtcen1215]

First time I have seen someone say grappling is slow. If you ever seen it slow, it's because two very experience grapplers are evenly matched. A good grappler would smash someone inexperienced quickly.

[@pentuplove6542]

I am 6 feet tall. I always try to avoid fights. Trained in Wado Ryu karate, Wing Chun, and a few others. I am Autistic with Complex PTSD. Never like fighting in the street though I do prevail. Since having Complex PTSD I dont train nor rarely go out. Have been attack in from of my family by a huge white Dutch xenophobe who is a known criminal. Police told me I would be arrested if I made a statement of me being assaulted. 6 times I returned to give my report. 5 different excusses were given by 5 different police officer as to why I couldnt give my Statement. My doctor's report was never read. She said my wounds warrented the police investigate. The 6th police officer having dealt with people with Autism as well as Complex PTSD said I can best make a complaint to the Dutch Public Prosecutor. Did that and things were going great until the woman handling my case was removed and replaced. What should have took months as I was first informed was completed in a matter of days. The Dutch Public Prosecutor stated "The police did a good job." Police work with criminals. Get away if you can. If not use all you know to save your life. Even smashing balls etc. Your life is more important than any criminals

[@60gidget]

Interesting, I am 5foot nothing after seeing this, I feel much, much confident. Thank you

[@mark72141]

The reality is one cannot win against a much taller guy who also knows how to fight,

[@GBlues1]

😂😂😂😂

[@brianrahuba6919]

MMA is not a cure all go ahead and bring that fight onto the streets hope that person doesn't have a box cutter . There is no perfect fight . One error that's all it takes no matter what style someone takes . And everything is a surprise on the streets . This man is wickedly fast and he not well he was probably trained traditionally but you can go off beat with this as well . This man can put a hurting on a fighter . I think this guy is humble he just assured about himself and he should be . All the respect to you Sir . I wouldn't go out of my way to fight you being 6ft at 290 pds and I wouldn't expect that kind of speed out of him or anybody else even if I were to win at what cost ? Not one I'm willing to pay . Lol lol shit no !

[@philiphartshorn]

Hey Adam, one of my subscribers suggested I check you out because we are similar, great work man, are you Ip Man Lineage too?

[@adamchankungfu]

Thanks , appreciate it. My roots .. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4erZWVpibKNfpY

[@costaliva]

I love both these channels, and now they're talking :D

[@HuubvanVeenhuyzen]

Costa Livadas right!?

[@FearlessVXI]

Oh shoot Phil is here

[@TC-by3il]

I wouldn't say you're the same. Adam seems practical and realistic.

[@sameermalik5322]

Never use a hit on the diaphragm, it is lethal and survivor will end up jail. *Life in imprisonment is worst than Death!*

[@lindylowerison4046]

The study of martial science is you learn how to fight so as to not fighti get the impresdion you learned from ip chung

[@simonkwee]

Good advice, if you can avoid confrontation do so. If you must fight though, don't adjust to the taller opponent, but attack the available weak points until he 'collapses'.

[@JKDVIPER]

5:19 I’ve been watching Adam for like years now. I knew he was knowledgeable beyond what even the legends knew. That was insightful.

[@davisbarr9112]

That is what some people would call a disadvantage I respect you ... Sometimes going in right away, good. Sometimes probably not ... There's that too. Maybe because of the close range it's similar to BJJ and not ... Because ... You will either want to be to far or closer either or. We can be thankful that Wing Chun even though people see it as a limitation there's no such thing as a martial art that is a limitation you limited yourself to using Wing Chun but that's not what you actually do know martial art is actually a limitation. All it is is a new strength and a new way to think.

[@kickassets6414]

lol Adam u r the truth

[@jhorellespectacion1901]

Best defence againts some is a concealed weapon

[@ParkourEh]

hey I've recently discovered your videos and really like what you're putting out here. Just a word of caution when dealing with the haters is to honestly just don't spend time on them. I've seen some martial arts channels here go from just representing their art to loud ranting in their videos, and having a colder, angry attitude as if the world's constantly out to get them. I just hope this doesn't become the fate of you guys!

[@leoramirez4024]

Don't let the politics get you upset, you give great advice and awesome tips to alot of people,, you have my gratitude,thanks for the video's

[@Mr75044]

Never have your hands in your pockets. A quote from the old man....ex Army.

[@urantia64]

TQ sifu Adam

[@Blueditzjray]

Why do I feel like WC practitioners tend to try to look their fights like Ip Man, all looking Kung Fu and using literal straight traditional techniques. This guy is saying fax about cutting down the tree instead then using attacks, that’s what I feel like WC practitioners tend to do, lap sau or pak sau a tall guy when he blocks the chain punches Meanwhile Karate they don’t tend to do like that where they make their moves all fancy and like Kung fu movies( obviously) I think it’s because Kung Fu started to look all their fights all fancy techniques and perfect while other martial arts movies are less fancy (still fancy but not at as fancy giving a more realistic) techniques in fighting. I feel like that’s one reason why WC practitioners fail a lot. I saw a person say “Kung Fu in a fight doesn’t need to look like the Ip Man movies where techniques are so clean” and, no one can make fights clean, your not at a distance where you’re throwing clean jabs while other is blocking clean. It’s always moving around and messy and not throwing constant punches clean and rushing fast. I’m not saying Wing Chun is useless, I’m saying that this is probably why WC practitioners fail while in actual fights, and like Wong Shun Leung, Leung Jan, Yip Man, they change, adapt to their fighting style, their Wing Chun is modified and different and a more effective style than the traditional Wing Chun. A Wing Chun practitioner who has Wong Shun Leung’s Wing Chun sees a difference between WSL’s Wing Chun and Traditional Wing Chun, and he said “make your fighting style your own” Qi La La has WSL’s Wing Chun, that’s why he can make Wing Chun work against amateur (or above amateur) level and do WAYYYYYYY better than traditional Wing Chun practitioners when fighting amateurs (Adam also said that Leung Jan and WSL’s Wing Chun is different than traditional Wing Chun in one of his videos) So, the modified Wing Chun can make it passed amateur level if practiced and pressured tested like of Qi La La does it, meanwhile traditional, maybe not.

[@TamNguyen-vw4qg]

That doesn't matter what the haters say...! In my opinion Sifu Adam Chan has amazing skills. He's very fast, great movements and he masters the WSL Ving Tsun definitely. I would give a f...k of the "HATERS". HE has my respect...Sifu Adam Chan,- keep it on!!!! Greetings from Germany ☯️🙏🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@hcvgymyydgh950]

Great explanation! But is it really practical if you fight with some really aggressive fighters?from MMA maybe?because clearly they don't attack like that man in the video, just wondering, thanks!

[@richardbarton6146]

Pick your battles!! you wont beat everyone. There will always be someone, bigger, stronger, more skilled, Just hope you dont run into them.

[@TamNguyen-vw4qg]

The answer is SPEED AND TIMING. LOOKING BRUCE LER VS KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR

[@antonioangeloviii4748]

Great video. Wow. Awesome . Really inspired. I'm gonna be the first ufc flyweight wing Chun Champion.

[@arkaraha2639]

Became champion ? 😂😂😂 Using wing Chung

[@Blueditzjray]

Good luck man, Wing Chun in mma lose a lot due some of the moves being banned

[@farkinarkin5099]

The hater comment was hilarious. :-)) Definitely works. What I see a lot of is a focus on shoulder and hip movement, and interception based on those cues. Yes? As far as dealing with mountain-sized men like Mike. I would do everything possible to avoid physical altercation. I'd only have to get clocked once, and I'd be seeing stars. So far, my fine art of defusing situations and the uncanny ability to run like a scalded cat has been quite useful...

[@jazzygrover3]

Master Adam getting in contact with a real MMA fighter?? They dont know who they are dealing with for real!

[@vitagepaul]

Adam wow you are soo fast. Respect for the Video and Infos💯❤️👊💪

[@arek6969]

What if he's similar height but extremely obese, same principle?

[@WereWolf27181]

Cool 😎men Thanks Sifu respect 🙏🏽🐺

[@krhfkp7280]

Aint no way that was staged

[@axelstone3131]

Wrecked. Lol.

[@IbrahimKhalil-bt9yh]

That punch that went from stomache to throat can also be found in ninjutsu, this wing chun guy is no joke all though most wing chun I've seen online is paddycake

[@MindfulBodybuilding]

Awesome demos as always, Great to see this channel grow

[@jazzygrover3]

Woww!!!! Really impressed with Adam Chan!!! Suddenly i want to learn Wing Chun under him!!!

[@mardyMart123]

Nice video thanks

[@bsuccessb]

Hey, I love these videos!!! Do you think you could do one on compression?

[@adamchankungfu]

thanks Bakari, started to work on how to film it, looks like it will be about 30-60 minutes long so will be filmed and released in my online lesson website later in the year www.pragmaticmartialarts.com

[@stevehauck4122]

You're so FAST!! I know that comes with practice. My question is how to attack or defend a guy that tries to step on your feet and take you down? Wrestler or Jiu Jitstsu fighter? Thank you for the lessons you've given I'm in awe. SO FAST

[@elvischamakese7464]

Get some haters lol

[@conspiracyortiz1660]

Adam is a beast. Wing chun is a bad ass form and self defense martial arts.. its blocking and stricking fast .. placement and getting close... wing chun combined with some boxing and jit jit su would be a deadly Art...

[@michaelweyhrach1223]

Really helpful video for approaching larger opponents.... It seems to me thats all I come across, so this video gets two thumbs up from me.... Thank you

[@neutrino78x]

Sifu Adam, your teaching style seems conversational and reminds me a lot of Guru Dan Inosanto. You ever work with him? Kung Fu interests me greatly, because a lot of styles under the Kung Fu family tree seem to emphasize hands, which would be better for me. I did ITF Taekwondo in high school, and while it did work against the bullies I had, I had to do it slightly differently than the founders intended; I never had the coordination or flexibility in my legs to do the high roundhouse kicks or complex spinning kicks in actual sparring. So when I dealt with bullies I would kick to the torso and use that as a bridge to close distance and then use the hand strikes from TKD. It seems that Wing Chun is one of the arts that would work well for my body. It's definitely on the short list of possible arts to pursue when this COVID-19 stuff slows down and I get a little more time and money to get back into regular classes at a martial arts studio! It's also interesting because trapping is radically different from how we blocked in ITF TKD. But like I said it seems like it would be more useful for my body type, little guy who doesn't have much coordination or flexibility in his legs. I definitely agree on the weak points. Early on in learning TKD, the second week, I accidentally discovered the solar plexus strike in sparring, and the instructor pointed out that I had discovered something that he would normally teach later, that it's a weak point that's one of the traditional targets in martial arts. It worked well against the bullies, most of whom were a lot larger than me....lol

[@stephanwatson7902]

In bjj when you go for an armbar you lock your elbows around the trapped arm, so that you can lean back and pull his arm with your body. Wing Chun uses this concept of incorporating body structure into attacks and grappling.... It'll catch on, again

[@vinny57ish]

Not hater Sifu ...Chan what you showed here in this video about working the center line ...that is the real essence or part to Wing Chun. ..of course there is more..and my local sifu Phil Romero teaches a lot of these principles of the Ip man or Master Hawkins Cheung, Ip man wing chun style. Thanks for the sharing and I look to viewing more videos... Also are you familiar with Sifu Phil Romero? ?

[@EverythingEsala]

Hi Adam, I am watching this now and this came to my mind. What if the tall guy kicks us, or uses his knee to attack while we coming closer to him? I would like to train with you. Your videos are inspirational.

[@billyray323]

Once again, you're passing on good knowledge Thank you 😉✌🇬🇧

[@veganninja5886]

You're very skilled, knowledgeable and very humble. You're a great teacher.

HELLO HEY I FIND UR TRAINING VERY USEFULL. I ENJOY EVERY SINGLE VIDEO .THANKU 4 UR VIDEOS. I FOLLOW UR TRAINING EVERY MOMENT I CAN.

[@aquibakhtar7634]

Your videos has so much of information Adam just one request please use microphone your voice in video is always blurr not audible clearly otherwise everything is very good and so much to learn..🤗 love Kung fu...May Allah bless you brother.. thanks for sharing such great content always..

[@joeynorum6007]

Good technique. Most of people when striking try to grab all body down, and you counter him with hold his hands after that punching to center line.

[@machinegunftw86]

Not a wing Chun user but I like the strategy and intentions.. element of surprise and run away...

[@43trebor]

Brilliant

[@psychkick666]

[@doctormcgoveran2194]

I love this video and the part where you talk to the other guy was the best.I unfortunately can not avoid a fight with a big person.I have watched a beating and I have given a beating and I have taken a beating. I simply cant run away while some one gets a beating

[@BullsEye]

I don't see the online training videos on your website, where are they? Awesome channel dude!

[@spacecatgalaxies4194]

great . but with tan sau that high hook punch have a tendency to go trough.

[@VeVe_AR_Guy]

but his hit was faster on the guy's throat so his hook punch lost alot of power

[@subwoofer6726]

That's why if you get into a fight, prepare the possible variable that you might take a hit or two. Like the old saying goes, "Get into a knife fight and you will get cut."

[@MrUnstopable1000]

Happy New Year Adam! I hope too see you again this one............. :D

[@jackmihov5231]

Great lessons Master Chan thank you so much. Mike is a great sport and you both said it all.

[@MexFutbol14]

i noticed that when he would punch he would try to deflect but i think another way is to try to let the flow of the lunches go by and always go forward like use the big guys strength to his own advantage

You idiot stop hating God and come out of your subjective illusion senses. Thank you for actually reading.

[@ericgomez9740]

Wow really good stuff!

[@JustkoolFOREVERK00LMK]

Awesome video man! Appreciate it

[@c.r.t3811]

Hey Adam, Why not use your legs first before striking which is taught in the 4 stages of combat?

[@screamtheguy6425]

He could but he didn't talk about it specifically, the video was about ideas on dealing with a bigger adversity.

[@minlee5376]

At 1:39 he said do what ever you want and hit him but he pointed at his face where he wanted to get hit and his opponents or demo guy attack him. So it wasn’t whatever you want it’s typical cuz a lot of tkd school also do this

[@screamtheguy6425]

That was just a normal human hand sign to say, "let's start" "C'mon" "Come over". Mike (the larger man) threw a wider punch during the moment. As Adam has stated, there was no pre-planning before they started the video. Fucking hell...they would have done a lot of preparation and that takes too much time and energy for everyone.

[@andre.36]

great videos adam. can you do a video how to remove some bodys arms that is stronger than youre self. during my training it hapen to me that some one try to hold his arm on the center line now i whas using lot of power to remove his arm you have a good tip for me to suprise him thank you and greetings

[@killersalmon4359]

Is the "big guy" standing on a box, or is Adam standing in a hole?

[@fabianoaq4777]

It's this type of video that further undermines the name of Wing Chun, this guy in the video with you is almost twice your size and should certainly weigh around 100 kg, if it was a real fight and not this ridiculous demonstration he would reduceu the dust, u want to deceive anyone with this lie, make a real fight with this huge and heavier guy and say that i am wrong, of course if you dare

[@knurttt8377]

Who says u can't use wing chun in street fights lol
