Sam Kwok trains with lots of good boxers, including former world middleweight bare knuckle champion Paddy Monaghan (see other videos) Also Wing Chun is more than comfortable at close range (elbows etc). they are different ways of fighting, the better fighter will win.

[@lancswingchun]

yes it was planed, it is designed to clearly show how to use various wing chun techniques.

[@DJFistOfCurry]

This is an AMAZING demonstration. Very effective and speedy Wing Chun applications! This Sifu sort of looks like an older Donnie Yen, too. - Respects from a Tai Chi Mantis practitioner

[@lancswingchun]

This is Ip Man Wing chun as passed on by ip chu nand ip ching

[@Sindikat011]

I train this for 3 years and i can say that its best for self defense,it helped me countless times...

[@kalamonde]

Starting studying this on Monday, well looking forward to it. I like the way the first Sil Lim Tao form present pretty much all of the basics, you can tell how countless practices of it develop subtle technique. Can't wait :D

[@osummuso]

Had the pleasure of training with Kwok Sifu in Blackpool. He keeps the art alive.

[@TheVleckChannel]

Had the first induction course today. Total value for money, and looking forward to beginning my training proper.

[@goldendogger]

mookjong15: I have trained with Sifu Phil Nearing for several years. Currently on hiatus unfortunately. I have nothing but the highest respect for Sifu Nearing. He is top notch and has taken the time and respectful dedication to learn from the best Wing Chun people in the world. He has proven himself a respectful and wonderful representative of Wing Chun in it's pure Yip Man form. He can take a rookie and teach them how to be a person capable of fighting with skill and WCKF form.

[@coolwaterdvr]

This is the best wing chun demo ever! NICE!

[@Liyongchun]

It is always nice to see good Wing Chun clips here. good stuff bro!

[@lancswingchun]

16 is still young I started at 18 and Im an instructor now If you have a good teacher like sam kwok and put in a couple of hours every day in a year you will know some self defence and in 3 years you will be ok :-)

[@iloveesr]

I learnt Wing Tsun for quite a while, and it is truly a very devastating form of fighting. However, due to it's extremely technical nature, it's one of those skills that is easy to learn but hard to master. Its key skills are its simplicity; "Why go round the sun to get to the moon?" As well as training the different forms of WT, the student will also learn an array of techniques specifically to deal with different martial arts. I would recommend it to everyone!

[@lancswingchun]

Cheers, Hope your club is going well =)

[@Gaiko32]

This is hot stuff. Man Wing Chun is not famous for kicking but those few low kicks are simply awesome. I sat here and cheered at 2:09! I have Samuel Kwok's 'The Path to Wing Chun' book next to me: it's like my freaking bible right now.

[@yienhui1]

yay i am learning wing chun soon by one of the disciple of master samuel kwok!

[@lancswingchun]

@cornwallgeezer blocking further up the thigh would help and kicking the supporting leg is good

[@publication07]

Had the honer of having Sifu Kwok in our studio. Pleasure to have meet him. Great master and a great human being.

[@lancswingchun]

You thought wrong. Elbows play a key role in Wing Chun (chum Kiu and Biu Gee)

[@KungFu991]

awesome video. I know alot of kung fu styles but wing chun is one of the most valuble syles you can learn

[@rgvwingchun]

definitely! I had the pleasure of training with him in Virginia in March.

[@lancswingchun]

yep - see my other video (the Carlson Gracie one)

[@gjkristi]

Impressive to see how fast he actually reacts to attacks, by the time the attacker has his foot half way on it`s way towards Samuel Kwok he is at the sime time on his way down to the floor.. when Kwok does it, it look effortless.. would be an honor to train under him!

[@Mattiasgbg]

I like it! Well done!

[@lancswingchun]

his website has everything about him on and its liked to the right in the description. use the top nav and click about sam kwok when on the site

[@kmcmon]

Had the pleasure of attending a seminar by Master Sam Kwok in Edinburgh a few years back. The guys is awesome to watch up close and such a real nice guy. Very patient and witty. Explains things brilliantly.

[@marzli]

very interesting. good add-on for my practices.

[@gonzoyouknow]

Terrific video!

[@kobeodom24]

This guy is a master.

[@fagio1989]

I wanna be trained by you master... Respect

[@JOHNNYwxw]

thanx for this vid man!

[@jasma98]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha... Good advice. I must remember to tell my students that one tonight! You're doing a great job lancswingchun thanks for all the great vids you've posted over the years! Hope to see you again soon. jasma98 ;-)

[@EdTheBearsFan]

I started taking Wing Chun at age 30. I stopped for a few years, and now I'm 35 doing it again. Whenever you start, the main thing is to stick with it! Look up some vids of Ip Chun, and you'll see that he can still go even as an old man. More importantly, he states that WC is not just for self-defense and fighting, but also for keeping in shape physically and mentally.

[@JSVETTEZ06]

this style is very unique... you learn how to deliver power, power and reflexes....

[@lancswingchun]

Its just a demonstration of how to apply Wing Chun hence one person has head gear the other gloves, its not set up to be a fair fight its just so beginners can get some ideas

[@lancswingchun]

It is a matter of preference - but if your hands are high your ribs are exposed and if they are low your head is exposed so keeping them in the middle (neck height) is best for me, that way they are never too far from a potential attack.

[@nabapoisu]

in wing chun, like other chinese fighting styles, the stance varies. If your hands are really swift and opponent is not in punch distance, u may keep hands a bit lower not to wear out your shoulders. Yet again, holding it at your eye level keeps them ready for any surprise attack. I suggest holding at eye level unless you are sure u can block blows to the head when your hands are lower. Kicking to the head is harder than to the stomach so if u know your opponent is not a kicker u may hold lower.

[@lancswingchun]

you are less likely to break your hand with a palm strike (the metacarpal bones break if you punch something hard like the forehead by accident)

[@phoenixifist]

wow... what a testament... thats great to know.

[@SifuBilly]

I think do think there are too many people not understanding that they are watching a demo, it seems to me many just want to see blood and guts and their Sifu hurting his students. I am one of Sifu Kwok's senior students and have travelled round the world with him and people have the greatest respect for him. I can not think of anyone that has done more to promote the Ip Family system than him. But then I have been round the world and seen how good he is in real life, who else can say this?

[@IFE10M]

Traditionally yes. A few months on conditioning will get you well on your way, just make sure you're doing it right, using your lat muscles (the ones under your armpits) as much as possible.

[@AmAyznAzn]

This video is soo awesome!!!!!! thank you!

[@MrMohamed1407]

great fight

[@ILovePickleface]

This is a great demo! Thank you so much for the slow motion. Wing Chun moves so fast it can be difficult to see. Thank you!

[@lancswingchun]

He still represents both his Sifu's Ip Ching + Chun, but he has his own martial arts association. As he has fully lernt from both Ip Chun and Ching its hard to say which influences his Kung Fu more but he keeps most contact with Ip ching at the moment. but Kwok and his students are going to study in China for 10 days with both his sifus.

[@rainmen23]

I fully agree with the comments above !

[@lancswingchun]

if you want designs to make one i can email you some

[@WingThaiJ]

I think the choice is personal to the fighter & how he feels during the confrontation. Normally we will step to the angle as the block is used moving toward the blind side and if needed use interupts to distract or even strike before he even has a chance to turn; like I said, whatever gets the job done

[@dantesinferno80]

when blocking the kick with hands its usualy done at the point before the kick gains any real power (think of the kick as a pendulum swinging..the majority of the power will be at the bottom of the swing which at the top there will be little or no power, that is where you block)

[@WingThaiJ]

It seems that this is the modified system as he's attacking the opponents center. In Traditional we avoid attacking directly in the center, but attack at the angle / blind side so to gain a positional advantage, take his balance and control the situation. However, certainly it's feasible to defend and attack in any way that will get the job done, it just seems like blind side fighting would be the goal.

[@AlexAndrasch69]

can someone give me a bit of background info on Samuel Kwok. I would like to know a bit more 'bout him.(who his teacher was, who he trained with, his pupils etc.) Thank you brothers in Wing Chun ^^

[@haribon22]

nice.. really effective in street fighting!

[@SimKoning]

One of my Krav instructors I spoke with at a seminar mentioned he trained in Wing Chun and some of the techniques are almost the same. I train in Krav and Wing Chun now

[@jiujitsuboy]

Really? Fascinating, can you elaborate please?

[@cornwallgeezer]

I like Samuel kwoks wing chun but wonder is there a better way to block the kick? because in this you see the opponent kick kwok nearly in the head and i think he uses right hand gam sau to block then steps in and punches. I think if that was a proper fight and the kicker was more powerful, like a kick boxer etc i think he would get smashed in the head. Any pointers please? Good video!

[@Borthwickg93]

in wing chun do they punch and block like that all the time and how long would it take to get that power and speed?

[@prchdaword]

no doubt!!!

[@DjSapao]

Wing Chun is for sure a good martial art to use in real fights, like on the street... most like Aikido, but aims directly to the face of the opponent most of times.

[@MMAneuver]

He's not exposing his centerline during the first techniques at all, if anything he MOVES off the opponents centerline in order to enter through the opponents guard at 'difficult to block' angles. This is also an example of good footwork then. I also agree with the above comments that these techniques are only 'static' to demonstrate some basic entry and defense techniques.

[@lancswingchun]

My Sifu Samuel Kwok reffers to Ip Chun and Ip Ching as his Sifu's. Im only saying what he says. Yes technically you can only have one Sifu. but if we are being pedantic Samuel Kwok originally started Wing Chun lerning from Lee Sing in England. However Samuel Kwok is most definatly a senior Representative of both Chun + Ching. Ask either of them or Sam Kwok. (some manners wouldn't go a miss)

[@lancswingchun]

This is as traditional as Wing Chun gets as Kwoks Sifu's are Ip Chun + Ching. Like you say getting to the blind side is always the best place to be. Kwok does it when being attacked in this. but when entering it is not that important because if you try to attck a stationry person at a different angle all they need to do is turn. but like you say 'blind side fighting would be the goal' where possible

[@cornwallgeezer]

No way he would block those kicks using i think right gam sau, he would be knocked out by a powerful kicker! Is there a better way to block the kick? Any pointers?

[@ohzin112]

Man i got a question for yall please somebody reply, is it to late to start this sport at 16 years old or can i still learn it im not talking about being a pro or something just knowing the sport good for your selfdefence

[@marzli]

BTW: the slomo is GREAT!

[@CreasyE]

Master Kwok's top student has now set up a class in south wimbledon community centre, Monday nights. I've trained under other Masters before, but none compare to the real deal. Don't be ripped off by fake sifu's.

[@lancswingchun]

hence the video title ... fighting applications DEMO

[@jmua6]

nice

[@narayanr]

No, my friend, you are sorely mistaken! This is not meant to be a fight. This is a demonstration of Ving Tsun technique. In reality, you wouldn't even see Sifu Kwok's Centerline Consciousness Attack if you were at the receiving end!

[@narayanr]

I like his fighting style, though.

[@SpamFairy]

yeah thats what this ancient art needs to have full impact: creed!

[@atb4home]

great video, thank you

[@justech05]

Just to clarify, Wushu's definition is the art of the fighting, similar to the meaning of KungFu.

[@georgeee1]

can you email me the designs to make a wooden dummy?

[@JuliusVlogs6]

Nice Wing Chun

[@buschi25]

brilliant wow greeeeeeeeeeeeeeat

[@heckald]

man the guy with mask telegraphed sooooo much. hes not a well trained fighter, but i saw other vids of kwok he would intercepted even if he didnt telegraph

[@prfu1222]

his chun is good. better then watching the leung ting people. and 10 times better then most of the other stuff on you tube. theres a guy called sum dek sifu. the name alone says it all.

[@elenchus]

I agree with LWC on this one, but I would hesitate to call Wing Chun a sport, or to enter into it with the "tournament" mentality. If anything, I'd say 16 is a great age to get into MA, but don't wait or put it off...when I started MA at 18 I just remember being upset that I didn't start sooner.

[@rankinsr]

I'm not entirely convinced that the pak sau would've stopped the kick thrown at ~2:33.

[@chrysostomou1]

sifu kwok "respect" chisao is awsome you only have to touch hands with the likes of bill mckay and harry cannon, to see sifu kwok teaches well

[@dasBaum95]

yeah it´s very good. but to can to this you have to be very fast... and thats the problem

[@narayanr]

Why isn't his student fighting back?

[@lancswingchun]

@Mider999 coz Sam is 62 - MMA fighters - however good - retire well before then. Some of Sam's students have one some national full contact comps thou

[@stantonmiles]

Great stuff, I love my lineage. Master Kwok is brilliance. I've seen him drag someone along the floor for suggesting that lap sau wouldn't work, (Manchester Ip Chun Seminar / Ip Chun's 80th @ Jersey Street club), we all laughed! Ip Chun displayed that size doen't matter against my 6'4 and fair showed me up during chi sau, haha.

[@WingThaiJ]

Note: I do believe the tech are valid..

[@Huskytabby]

too much slow mo, but the technique looks great

[@arikbone]

yee i doo the same kind but in calgary lool wing chun kung fu academy

[@lancswingchun]

是

[@lancswingchun]

send me a personal message with your email on and ill send some over at some point although im quite busy this weekend

[@Nasoukikos]

wing chun and kung fu in generally are not athletics sports, they are martial arts, and in martial arts there are no rules

[@tobiastrek]

chum kiu punch at 3:12... devastating...

[@lancswingchun]

Try to think of this video as a demonstration of techniques, a list if you will, rather than an actual fight as this has been filmed in an empty kwoon. The intention of this is to help people who don't know much about wing chun see how it can be applied in different ways.

[@lancswingchun]

Wing Chun Chain punching, its likely Krav Maga got it from wing chun. As Krav maga is a much more recent martial art

[@shengchenfan]

you fight him lol.

[@sant1to]

Very Fluent, I would like to see him in actual combat though to see the full precision of his attacks.

[@lancswingchun]

its best not to break you friends leg when training ;)

[@evolution0384]

i've been doing wing chun for a while and i've always been taught to put your leading hand eye level, in this vid the guy isn't is that normal?

[@G6600]

Wing Chun is Kung Fu

[@mickelibarra]

I pity the punchbag hahahah

[@narayanr]

Fearless or not, he would definitely go down. Fearlessness and Stupidity make for a pathetic pair! Wouldn't you say, my friend?
