Great examples Sifu Kevin. I'm a 25yr Wing Chun Sifu, and your real-world examples are beautifully demonstrated and very practical. I love how you changed the name of the double Lan Sao, into the "Oh Shit block" LOL!!! A brilliant way to program techniques into people's thoughts. Anyway, best of luck with the future of your channel brotha. 🤜💥🤛

[@nickb.6726]

Fight someone your own size Kevin 😂…your little pal always gets it.

[@gw1357]

You're stuff is excellent. Thank you. I'd enjoy seeing more on integrating trapping with footwork and perhaps using traps to work into an advantageous clinch.

[@Selfdefensegoat]

Thank you for the kind words. Please take a look at the digital seminar on Budobrothers.com and let me know if you’re interested in purchasing. I think I have a discount code that can let you explore my interpretation of trapping.

[@richardbarton6146]

You are a great instructor. I wish I Lived in your city, But I am in America.. God Bless.

[@CajunFlavas]

On the last move I think it would be better to add in an eye jab after doing the han sao.

[@chester-chickfunt900]

Very informative and realistic / reasonable. Great content.

[@optimusmaximus9646]

I've noticed a few comments about the size disparity between SIfu Kevin and his assistant. Firstly, I think it's irrelevant as it's just a demonstration. Secondly, never underestimate a smaller person. Look at Sumo, for example, there are no weight divisions but the smaller, more experienced guy often wins. I am always coming up against bigger opponents when I train and when I spar, rather than let it faze me, I see it as another opportunity to get better. The smaller person tends to rely more on strategy than brute force. And as the overall fighting strategy of Wing Chun requires conceptual thinking rather than analytical or technique-based thinking, it is perfect for the smaller guy who knows how to hit hard and play dirty.

New subscriber, I really enjoy your content. I am a woman and many of your videos are very informative and straightforward, no frills. I'd love to see more in the future. Take care!

[@Selfdefensegoat]

Thank you so much for your kind words. Simplicity in all forms is usually the best answer. Thanks for subscribing. Make sure to subscribe to Budo Brothers as well for more of my content.

@@Selfdefensegoat Yes I agree. Will do! I know this is more tactical in nature... Maybe consider a video involving a backwards type of assault/ someone coming up and cuffing from behind. I see that the move is to roll out but I'd love your breakdown of how to maneuver in this scenario typically larger male attacking female. I'm never sure what to do if that happens and I'm in a grip not facing the person. I know to stay calm. What next? Thank you Kevin! Amazing work.

[@Selfdefensegoat]

@@fortune. thank you. I will not make a video if you getting cuffed from behind and need to escape. If you’re getting cuffed you should go to jail and learn your lessons haha.

[@fortune.]

@@Selfdefensegoat Yes, truth anyone who does this to anyone is a terrible person. Thank you then

[@fortune.]

@@Selfdefensegoat Oh, I didn't mean handcuffs but I understand the joke. Okay thank you.

[@tomhan4234]

Not fair the attacker is smaller than you😂

[@drs7245]

Awesome content 🙏🏾 and I will buy a helmet 😅. Cheers mate

[@Selfdefensegoat]

Haha yes do it. So fun to train with (as long as you get to do the hitting)

[@drs7245]

True haahah 🙏🏾

Kevin can win basically any fight he has height advantage

[@OldBadger1]

In the past I have really been hard on your trapping. I'd like to qualify that here. Some trapping can work for me in very specific times and distances. As an infighter I will use trapping just before a clinch happens ,for a split second, to set up a punch, headbutt or to gain side control for a takedown/sweep/body slam . I'll only use it maybe once in a 3 minute round. I prefer to attack an attack.If you count on trapping for your defence, good luck.

[@joshuahogan3475]

If you only use trapping for defense then you're using it wrong. Trapping should be at least as much offense as defense if not more. Think about the Wing Chun principle of maintaining forward pressure. Since trapping is such an integral part of Wing Chun, and constant forward pressure is key, why would trapping be defensive? Answer, it isn't. Attack with your ps. Use them to dominate your opponent and break his structure. Pull his hands away so he can't defend himself. Tl/Dr: Trapping is supposed to be majority offense not defense.

[@martinkorn2668]

This is remember me Wing Chun moves

[@MajorAALAN]

Trapping works when u know your opponent is supposed to do what they're told. Never seen useful in streetlights

[@YellowPaint100]

Trapping works when you train for what you're up against. Be it tournaments or street! Maybe you've never seen it. Same with Aikido too!

[@MajorAALAN]

@@YellowPaint100 its never used in mma. Neither is aikido. Lol what does that tell you about the style? It looks cool on film but it'll never be used in real life. You know what will be used? Bjj, wrestling, judo, muay thai, boxing , kickboxing

[@YellowPaint100]

@@MajorAALAN eye pokes, throat strikes, & groin strikes work too but are illegal. Keep on living, you'll see what I mean. Most guys aren't MMA or any other pro fighters. And several techniques are effective at defending against your avg guy.

[@frankiemcdonald5559]

@@MajorAALAN It is used, watch jon jones carefully

[@frankiemcdonald5559]

Its not too hard to do basic trapping and make it work in sparring, but pure boxers wont do it because its not legal in competition. The drills are for practise, its not expected that you would do it exactly like so in a fighy

[@mountainseeker2844]

This doesn’t work against decently quick attacks. Studied this stuff for 7 years and realized it was not real world applicable. Raising your arms in the block opens you up for a lower attack.

[@LINKchris87]

I like your stuff man but this one is starting to look like Wing Chun and that's a big red flag.

[@harveyquirke6376]

Keep. Going. Left

[@get_it_done4580]

trapping doesn't work against fast snapping punches like a boxers jab

[@mountainseeker2844]

Exactly.

[@AjaychinuShah]

Why look so much. The high X block isn't MAP nor is a firearm forearm BOOM strike. I've seen General Swarzkoffman on a Dagger and no map again just like no cooking. Ebony men lost their Life. And lousy lifestyle false information.

[@BAD_B0O0Y]

Some wing chun techniques are good. But when it comes to this video, the technique where you lead his punch to the side. I think that’s one of the least effective techniques that’s thought in wing chun. It’s just bad and it doesn’t work.
