This man's knowledge of martial arts is outstanding! Thank you for this video👍🤙✌🙏

[@albericodechiara714]

The Sil lim tao form seems boring, but it should be done regularly. The purpose is that all movements must be ingrained into the subconscious, so that you automatically perform them in sparring or fight, spontaneously, speedy and without thought. It will accelerate your co-ordination with a fast, smooth transition between movements, avoiding any wrong, unvolontary movement that may happen when conscious thought gets in the way. This is the often not understood or misunderstood reason.

A good teacher makes you question what you think you know. They open the door to another level of learning and then inspire you to walk through. Sifu Chan does that! I've practiced Wing Chun off and on for almost 30 yrs and he inspires my curiosity to still dig deeper!

Nice video. I’ll also add that Wong Shun Leung was Bruce’s main teacher (not Yip Man) in Hong Kong for 18 months before he moved to Seattle. Source from David Peterson and anybody else within the WSL lineage.

[@stephenorona2253]

Thank you, your very informative.

[@fractalofgod6324]

Another great lesson sifu Chan.... My segung is Eric Li who lives in Vancouver, do you know of him?

[@sifushox]

tnx Adam for sharing your knowledge of Gung fu with the world,you are amazing . The true warrior. Im learning gung fu since I was 5 years old starting with Bruce lee copying him day after day. I always train alone ,there was no masters to teach Gung fu in Slovenia in those years. Shore now its different,you can find someone those days. But when I saw you here on ytube I have got my will to train again. As soon I collect some money I will join your online courses ,now during this Corrona crises is a little bit hard to earn money here in Slovenia. Most people can hardly survive till the end of the month. This fake corrona destroys people lives and whole economy sadly. Respect Sifu.

[@Simon2k17]

Do you have a solo push hand drill to strengthen the root/sink? I know two people push hands is the way to go to build sensitivity and internal power, just wondering if there's a solo drill. Thanks

[@davidmedeiros7572]

There is so much variability in the heun sao. In the version of Wing Chun I'm currently learning, which is Hong Kong style, our heun sao has an "inside grind' or circle followed by an "outside grind" but the transition from the inside to outside circles adds a lateral swiping motion from center to outside, a "cut across the eyes". Curious if this is a common adaptation? I don't see it online anywhere.

[@givindu]

Could you kindly upload a full demonstration on Sil Nim Tao hong kong way

[@perrypelican9476]

Very cool that you are exploring different lineages. I think Bruce Lee had it right. It's about finding the one that's best for you.

[@sonphan8174]

That muscle-digging skill, does it work when the person tense up the muscles?

[@handsomeni]

Oh I was extremely impressed with wing chun ability to hit with their faces. Had fought with 4 wing chun "masters" from so called "different school". One claimed to be direct descendant of yip man or whatever his name was. Won all 4 fights in less than 3 mins. Send one to the hospital. Was really impressed by how all 4 sect of wing chun practitioners I had fought with attempted to hit my fist with their faces. Repeatedly. I remembered in particular one who used his face to hit my fist so hard that my wrist hurt for like a week. Even had to go to a hospital to check it out. You will never learn that from muay Thai, bjj, or other discipline. One hit so hard with his face he literally spit tooth after our fight. 👍

[@adamchankungfu]

I am happy to announce the Wing Chun course that I promise is finally release on my new site at www.adamchankungfu.com . I am sorry for the delay. I wanna thank Cris for all the hard work , all my online students on my Old site and all my youtube subscribers. Thank you .

[@nyclee9133]

It’s like leopard paw in hung gar with that hand grab digging into the soft parts of the body

[@RandyMancini]

[@hiskandar]

Adam Chan, would you please make a video how Wing Chun can be used when you're being mounted. I searched so many videos in youtube but somehow I still cannot find many helpful resources.

[@ZaddyZavid]

Don't get on the floor...

[@hiskandar]

@@ZaddyZavid haha... you're smart

[@ZaddyZavid]

@@hiskandar ground game super unrealistic and useless youtube sakuruba he destroy Gracies where was the precious ground game then? they have to take to you the floor first, if you good wing chun they too busy dealing with fist in their face. Also if they rush u step to the side and punch..if they grapple just KNEE up, no need training for that one. Your welcome.

[@hiskandar]

@@ZaddyZavid dude, ground game useless or not, I do NOT care. I am looking for resources for wing chun that can be used when you're mounted. Good wing chun or not, nobody is perfect. And now Using your logic on Sakuraba beat Gracies. How about Genki Sudo mounted on Royler Gracie and punching him to KO (youtube it). Regardless who that person was, that Gracie could ALSO be you or anybody else being mounted and that useless BJJ cannot compare to the striking skiill when they are on the ground. Now you're left alone with your Wing Chun, and mounted... What's next? So do you know how to apply it while you're mounted? If NOT, then STFU.

[@ZaddyZavid]

@@hiskandar i will not be mounted or taken to the ground. I answered yr question and you mad. I told you move to the side or knee up they cannot get u to ground the end. You want to mount go to gay bjj. Why u wing chun. Wing chun will not get mounted use yr brain.

[@edwardrichard2561]

Seems valid. Though you will never grab a punch being thrown. You can definitely grab a wrist before the shot is thrown. The biggest problem I see with Chinese martial arts is they don’t throw a hook. Probably the best punch in boxing is the lead hook. If you don’t train it how would you defend it.

[@scrtwpnx]

the way i got the feeling down for this is to have a buddy extend their arm out. then i try to yank them towards me. if you just use your arms, it's not as forceful as coordinating your lower back muscles into it

[@raygsbrelcik5578]

Some techniques we keep to ourselves; We don't want the "Bad Guys" finding out about them!

[@m.g.4051]

I would like to learn kung fu, but my hips are not very healthy. I had one hip replacement and probably need another one someday. Arthritis is taking me down. Can you show me something that my help?

[@smartresearchwingchun494]

Get our scientific Wing Chun Udemy course, there we disclose how authentic Wing Chun should be done. This video is showing incorrect Wing Chun techniques.

[@natanaelsilva121]

👏👏🤸‍♂️👍

[@theengineer704]

Now I see how BJJ became the most dominant martial art ever. Per my reviews, No martial art can address it.

[@jeffreyra1350]

BS!!

[@ZaddyZavid]

Sakuruba dominated the Gracies a long time ago where was yr precious BJJ then?

[@jean-marcbonere1448]

Good all Chris 😂

[@myshadowkungfu]

Look at the Benny Meng videos on KZbin.

[@lightartis228]

Could, sir, upload a full force sparring session of Wing chun...?

[@florisvanlingen]

I was taught that when doing circle hands your wrist should be lower than your elbow. You drop your hand whilst turning, otherwise the persons arm might get stuck on the inside of your arm. Most novices wil counteract that by disgarding the elbow and throwing it out of alignment.

[@aabe4327]

Don't pull into it. Keep the forward pressure and you won't get stuck, even if your hand is higher.

[@user-jp1bq5gc1v]

And why only one angle huen sao where is opposite way huen sao?

[@trumplostlol3007]

Footwork is much more important than handwork in modern fights. Most Kung Fu styles focus too much on handwork. If you can't get into position, you can't touch your opponents. This is also why I think Muay Thai can be weak too because of its clumsy footwork.

[@808frontline]

I like wing chun better then praying mantis system.. more applicable against the modern expressions of fighting.

[@houseofkungfu2543]

You know what man, I just surfed Sil Lim Tau from youtube to compare and contrast. 90% of "youtube" Sifus, totally exposed. I barley have any words, its embarassing. Just, thank you. I PROMISE, I will learn Wing Chun from you guys, its a damn shame the Wing Chun community wont even mention your name, and that pisses me off. I just now recovered from "baby momma drama" money wise. I got you guys. And I'll put on for you guys the same way I did Lung Ying. Masters like you should be cheirished and treasured. Sorry for kissing ass too much LOL
