The Secret is Positioning! TWC Wing Chun's William Cheung

In this short video Grandmaster William Cheung explains how positioning is the most important thing in fighting scientifically. The Wing Chun Chi Sao or touch reflex training is to condition the practitioner to be able to react and position without having to think, which is too slow. The correct strategy must become second nature.

The Wing Chun system is really good I would love to learn that

It’s amazing to watch a master giving instruction, thanks for posting

People like Cheung should help clear the air publicly about the integrity of martial arts. Because a lot of "schools" teach clients moves that seem useless in a real fight situation, some people on social media are calling martial arts bullshit. Including Wing Chun. "Muhammad Ali would have beaten Bruce Lee easily in a real street fight". Nonsense like that. There's 2 things: martial arts systems; and how well or poorly they're taught.

Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu works effectively. Find a school and see for yourself.

@@deanmarshall1650 Oh, I already know that. I had a friend who'd been trained in it for years. He was advanced in both Wing Chun and Jujitsu. I hadn't heard of Wing Chun until then. Long time ago! I just don't like how online rumor mills try to discredit the systems and in the same breath try to discredit Bruce Lee - esp when he isn't around to make the case.

[@morenoyamileth3013]

First of all Ali and Bruce Lee were different weight classes. Second: Bruce Lee was 10 times quicker than Ali and real win tzun uses deadly hits where boxing isn’t! So your equation is showing that you do not have much knowledge of both styles. Maybe you are a farmer and selling apples for pears!

Like Dana said it works even though he made it up no yip man , and the foot work of all other wing chuns is resritive , I trained this in Melbourne for five years ,but students would not fight like my wado mates in UK ,

[@marekzuralski5864]

Do you learn how to enforce this positioning during training? Especially in dynamic situations? Do you learn how to apply chi sao techniques in real situations? In other words: how to force a real fight to follow the principles of Wing Chun? Because there are ways to force Wing Chun in a real fight. And this is the essence of Wing Chun. It's a pity that almost no one teaches this. Neither do you. At least from what you can see in this video.

People put down William but he challenged Ting years agao and he did not accept.

[@deanmarshall1650]

Ting knew better, instead he conspires under the table.

[@BRUCEJJ66]

And all this time I thought the secret was only demonstrating on cooperative students! You know, people who are in no way actually fighting you ...

[@deanmarshall1650]

Different between teaching and fighting.

[@BRUCEJJ66]

@@deanmarshall1650 So when have we seen the grand poombah here actually fighting? And how did he do?

[@wingchun-simplekungfu7584]

William has his own secrets. There are no secrets in wing chun. Only things that can not be achieved if you haven’t learnt enough.

[@wingchun-simplekungfu7584]

Tricks practised in chi sau won’t work in a fight if you can’t do chi sau correctly William. 😉
