Lok Sau, also known as Lop Sau, or the Laap Sau drill, is a training framework used in Wing Chun which at its fundamental level is used to train tactility, reflexes and automatic response to actions and movements, without thought. At a more advanced level students can also play with the frame of the drill to look for opportunities to react to what they see rather than just feel, and also experiment with multiple-striking and more sophisticated footwork.
The video is a brief overview of some ways more advanced students looking to move beyond the basic level of Lok Sau can use to go about doing this.
It's important to understand the it's not necessarily the moves that can be translated to general fighting, as in order to work they rely heavily on idiosyncratically artistic movements for the drill to flow. However, the PHILOSOPHY learnt in the drill, of automatic defense and response to attacks, and the ability to multiple-strike when doing this can very much be transferred well to fighting.
Peter Foreman, who was kind enough to help film the video, is one of the most experienced Wing Chun teachers and practitioners in the country, with over 20 years of experience in teaching the art. His tuition is well sought-after in the North London area and if you would like to train with Pete please visit www.citywingchu... for details of class times and locations.
