I had the honor of studying under Sifu Fong back in the 80s. He had a small school above a furniture (?) shop in Atlanta, GA. The most striking thing I remember about his technique was how... soft... it was. I mean when you attacked you could almost not feel his defense and counter. His arms were so light to the touch, yet he could control you and then blast you with such speed and power. The best analogy is to say it was like fighting a hurricane. When you attacked it felt like you were fighting air. When he countered you felt like you were in a storm. (I still have our class picture on my home office wall).

My background is very limited when it comes to Wing Chun , but there's enough cross over with Silat and Kali that I can relate. As one teacher said , "It's not really about the hands and feet , I'm attacking your spine . If I can control that, I can control you ." If you watch how when he wants to, Sifu steals your balance and breaks your structure . That translates into any style and application . Even when you are squared up with an aware opponent. This same teacher used another example when he was walking across the mats on day he caught his toe on a loose edge and stumbled a bit. He stopped class and said "Who saw that? I've been training for 30 years, I have 5 different black belts , but look how none of that mattered the instant I tripped and was off balance. THAT'S the thing we are trying to create."

Him knowing the counters is absolutely crazy. Thats the part that gets me, wing chun seems to be very efficient in its actions. Get a good position, strike as hard as you can as many times as fast as you can and then either pull them away or push them away right after. A straight blend of offense and defense. But when he tells him to do something on him, and then has like 5 different counters if he was in the same spot its just crazy the amount of raw muscle memory and experience there is. No wasted movement, all quick but all precise like daaaamn

I'm in awe ...just less then 4 minuites in this clip...he's in his 70's? Just practice speed allone is hard to follow his hands..what if he had to take someone down? That person wouldn't know what hit him...And the young man comes back to learn and get put on the ground, every time! What a humbling experience that must be!!

when the understanding and application is this high it appears as artistry/pure expression - as it does with high level practitioners of systema or kali the principles just shine. this is marvellous stuff

You can tell he's all about what's practical. Yes, he practices and teaches Wing Chun but he's also an extremely versed Jujitsu practitioner. I feel like he has the same type of mind-set as Kevin in that it's about how to adapt it in a functional way that produces results. Edit: I watched this again later and he said something that I didn't pick up on before that is honestly kind of profound. "Find the solution - don't look for answers." A super simple, seemingly innocuous statement but it's incredibly insightful.

I think he was communicating the shootwrestling / catchwrestling mentality of grappling. I guess he crosstrained with those guys

Thanks for all the pointers at the seminar. It was great learning from the Sifus. And thanks for posting this, as it's great review for some of the stuff we went over. I forwarded it to a few other attendees.

The Original ancient fighters that learned Wing Chun, had former training in different arts. They would have already have been fairly Jacked. Wing Chun was actually designed for, and used... to teach a secret underground group of Rebellion fighters.. to try to take over the corrupted govt. of that Era. They created a combat only artform, that had the most effective combat technology of that time (mainly from internal arts, like Tai Chi). Arts back then, used to take 15 to 20 yrs to fully master, due to their complex depth. They didnt want to wait that long, so they made a reduced art that could be learned and fully mastered in less than 6yrs of daily hardcore efforts. They chose many fighters that already had previous training.. so that Wing Chun added to their pre-existing strength and conditioning base. This is why WC doesnt seem to have much grappling (it prefers lethal strikes, rather than "Nice" moves), nor an advanced level of Iron-Body Conditioning, nor even a set hardcore workout routine / foundational based exercises. That, and barefist sparring was something every one of these guys would have done... but is rarely seen being done these days, by modern practitioners. Now... you dont need to have super bulky muscles to be combat effective / lethal. More important, is the development of super strong and flexible tendons. Thats where most of Internal Power comes from. That said... you do need a certain amount of muscle and fitness.. as well as a well conditioned body/bones. As if there was ever any bone to bone clashes.. even by accident.. you would be out of commission, if you didnt have that previous Iron Body conditioning. A lot of modern WC and other modern Kung Fu practitioners, just do not realize how things used to be. And frankly, many people today, are just not willing to put in the kind of hardcore efforts (and time) that it takes to achieve realistic, and fully functional ...combat level results. And for the record, virtually every other Chinese art, has Chi-Na (Chinese grappling/locking methods) as well as Chinese throwing and Wrestling methods.

Its so nice seeing the traditional arts being taught and then using them in a modern combat situation, It has been so disheartening seeing a lot of the traditional arts disappearing, I have trained my whole life and have always considerd Myself a Life long student, until i moved and There is nothing but MMA being taught which I have trained and Really like But i miss wing Chun and a lot of the traditional arts that I have studied. Great Video!!

I think Francis Fong is about 74 in this video. You can clearly see his capacity for explosive movement coupled with a fluidity that you don’t see too often with other WC practitioners who are often too static and robotic in their movement. This is ‘other’ level, thanks for posting 🙏

Yeah, I trained with Sifu in the early 2000’s for several years. He was in his 50’s, and when I tell you he doesn’t look a day older than I remember. His speed, skill, and technique is still the best I’ve ever seen. Every class my jaw was on the floor in awe of him. He’s one of the greatest people I’ve ever met in my life.

I'm so happy to see all I've learned over the years being demonstrated in this video. 🥰 There are real masters out there and this one is a breath air above all the Fake Fu practitioners trying to speak in the name of the respective arts they've allegedly learned. Looking pretty and being practical are two different things and this master is one of a small handful of teachers who teach real and practical moves. Yes, it still requires constant practice and repetitive actions but in the end, it'll make one effective. Much love for this video.
