All Techniques One Goal - Wing Chun, Kung Fu Report - Adam Chan

[@rvsam4u]

Thank you for stripping away the false and showing the true strength of Wing Chun.

[@dudemannxs]

I love how you break the system down into instinctive based responses. Took me decades to understand that. Awesome instruction!

[@myvt5360]

Right, you love him for the knowledge he passes on.

[@mightymeatmonsta]

No, it should be an AUTOMATIC and INSTANTANEOUS response, not instinctive based! Instinctive based means you don't have a PROPER response ready immediately because you have to THINK of a response, which slows down response time and reaction time! The ONLY way to get that type of a response is to do each drill, form, footwork, and other types of training at least 5000 times. This way, it will automatically be in muscle memory.

[@dudemannxs]

@@mightymeatmonsta Perhaps instinct was the wrong choice of words, or does not properly convey the context. In this context, instinct implies a fixed pattern of behavior or response. Training properly allows for that fixed pattern to become instinctive or automatic.

[@dgillian183]

Excellent video! The simplicity of Wing Chun takes a long time to learn! Always practice your forms! Feel space, move forward!

[@kunedoman]

Just plain awesome material, thanks Adam!

[@AE86Trueno701]

It took me 3 years to realize that I was doing the wrong bong sau, which then helped me understand more of what I didnt get. Adam showed me that, and continues to show me more for that I thank you and continue watching the channel

[@blindmellaneckbone]

Can't say I "have" the concept fully, but clearly understanding what you're trying to eventually reach is a BIG step in the right direction vs. flailing around without comprehending what your end-goal actually is. KUDOS Adam. Respect...

[@francksaysana]

Hello Adam, I am practicing win chun since 2012 and watched some KZbinrs but drop after couple of videos cause they where far from what my 75 years Sifu still teaches. Since I found your channel, really closed to what I have been learning. Really putty that you are west cost :-p I hope one day I would be able to come and pay you a visit. Kudos from Montreal. 🤜👏

[@myvt5360]

Thank you...before getting into ving tsun I used to do my best to learn techniques which didn't help in real fight situations. Then learning the art, I had a great sifu who used to drill that into my head, "stop chasing hands, control the center line..."

[@myvt5360]

@@mightymeatmonsta lol, for your kindness...already passed that point. He taught me the whole Moy Yat form of ving tsun. Many, and I mean many, shocking moments of rolling hands (chi sao) with that man. Funny because I didn't want to learn chi sao because I thought like many others outside of wing chun that it was a waste of time. After years of rolling hands with him I am so addicted to it. Again, many respects for your kind words.

Favorite wing chun channel.

[@gyran300]

Such an important principle explained so easily! My favorite wing chun channel!

[@TXJUSA]

This is so refreshing, love it. Seek the center and control it, "This is the way", the philosophy of "principle" over "technique". Hick's Law will kick in and decision making is decreased. A student learns the techniques. A master becomes the principles. Although, in most of the TMA I have trained, we did not focus on the center line in the same manner. It was not until I learned Wing Chun this concept was explained in a way that made since. This is like the video my wife like show me with the woman who has a nail in her forehead and is talking to her boyfriend about why her head is hurting, "It's not about the nail." "Seek the center and all will be balanced." sifu Grady, circa - today...

How you see it, is what you get. There is more than meets the eye. Thank you Adam. Wishing you and family a safe , happy and peaceful New Year 2021.

[@lehoangha999]

This is golden, sifu! I've been struggling with hit anticipation in sparring, and it always feels like such an unnatural thing. I usually become more focused when looking straight at their center line, but haven't understood how to act on that until this video. Thank you!

[@SoldierDrew]

Peace be with you. My Wing Tsun Kunfa sifu was Keith Fain sifu and I tested under Emin Bostephi sifu. It's much easier to progress in Wing Chun or Wing Tsun if you have experience in western boxing because you develop the fighting spirit, become comfortable with aggressive strikes coming at you with intent to knock you down and you lose all fear of being hit when a strike comes at you. These factors make it much easier to go into Wing Tsun training as a fighter and progress as a fighter. I was able to progress in Wing Tsun and apply the principles in real altercations because I'd came from a competitive boxing background. The reason so many wing chun practitioners fail in real challenge fights we see online is because most don't come from a competitive combat sport background so panic when facing a challenger trying to take off their head with malice. Seasoned fighters whom transition to Wing Chun do well in fighting because they're comfortable with opponents trying to take off their head & break their ribs. One final advice for overcoming hit anticipation, if you don't want to take up some western boxing to overcome that issue , is to let them 'lightly' strike your face until you no longer feel fear of your face being tapped by their hands.

[@RippedPantsss]

Very good! I need this recap on the center line principle

[@asherocksx4502]

Hey adam, could you do a video on footwork to close the gap because stepping on centre is great but if my opponent suddenly disengages and exits my range by using faster footwork such as bouncing around mma style, then i will have to start reacting and timing moves against them making it much more difficult to defend. So a video on footwork from a distance would be very helpful, as usual this was a great video, my respects to you!

[@nickdobrov]

It's not a dueling scenario, it's for self defense. Meaning, the opponent wants to pummel you into the ground, not score points. I wouldn't use wing chun footwork for dueling/sparring at all, in my opinion. Other than that, I've had high success with the "preemptive entry" technique (you can find it in Adam's earlier videos) upon quick opponent disengagement.

[@asherocksx4502]

@@nickdobrov ah yes i get that, but anyone can disengage or step back...but i do see your point

[@asherocksx4502]

@@nickdobrov also what if they jump into a stance i may need to know how to get in (im not trying to critisise btw i just wanna know lol)

[@_rami_745]

Adam Sifu, how important is having a partner who does wing chun to practice with? There aren't any close wing chun schools to me but there are MMA gyms close to me that I can train in. Thank you so much.

[@Joshuatree7746]

You need a guy to throw punches at you. He doesn’t need to be a wing chun dude. I paid my kids to throw punches at me for an hour and they earned it with gusto!

[@nickdobrov]

Hello Adam. I've got a question about the clip. How do you train to "check the corners"? How do you see the punch from close distance? I've always had difficulty with that (had to resort to turning the guy away to prevent the other hand from being able to hit).

[@HellFire178]

is there a version of Wing chun for a 6'6 person fighting a 5'5 person?

[@daneck100]

In Kenpo as Wing Chun " distance is your friend" be aware of your surroundings ,

[@malakatan3235]

Because most many Kung Fu techniques need appropriate strength which you gain from training long time in the right way, that make only few can do it, because many will drop along the way

[@mr.breadsworth7994]

What are different ways you would defend yourself from an uppercut to the chin?

[@ArunachalboyYes]

Nice main is centre line what about side ways steps

[@uli9084]

What strikes me, this is actually good wing chun (centerline based( but the stance is much more natural. To move inside out quickly. Is this right? ==

[@hiddenpathwingchun5045]

Yep. Though it's about understanding lines of force and using them as a path back to their "center".

[@hiddenpathwingchun5045]

@@HappyHusbandnWife I highly recommend it for women. Wing Chun doesn't require strength or mass, but mindful use of energy and "softness" to conform to contact and control the "line" of attack.

[@mightymeatmonsta]

Technique is not important??? LOL, are you serious? Without proper technique form and application, your won't have the ability to stop the attack, especially if the person is stronger and heavier than you are! Really Adam? See, this is what I mean by CRAPPY MODIFIED! See how Adam stays DIRECTLY IN FRONT, which is a BIG MISTAKE? OK, Adam, let's see you go up against a REAL boxer!! I can bet he would destroy your crappy wing chun in about a minute because you are standing directly in front, NOT using an angled step or body rotation. This leaves you VULNERABLE TO THE HOOK! How can you stop the hook when it goes beyond your peripheral (side) vision, and becomes invisible, and too late to stop once you actually see it?? People are right. If you don't practice defense against REAL boxers, REAL MMA guys, using REAL STREET TECHNIQUES, or JIU JITSU, WRESTLERS AND OTHER GRAPPLERS, then how are you supposed to defend yourself when you don't have a response ready, and are missing the key elements, like proper footwork (AGAIN, an ANGLED STEP, not linear, with a body rotation towards the attack to see it and stop it?? And what about the use of only SIX of ten concepts??? Or the fact that your linear approach leaves you unprotected on the other side if you don't use the CENTERLINE/CENTRAL LINE theory??? I'm just curious to see how you answer this!
