one of the most honoust videos in wing chun. better train for a good strong punch/block than 3000 flashy techniques

[@pascodavid]

This that`s why we practice Wing Chun to have a flexible skill not a fixed one. Alll Wing Chun is not the same!!

[@tangproductions]

That’s good. Unfortunately a lot of WC schools don’t.

[@80srocker65]

Really good lesson

Glad you liked it

Thank you Sifu..

[@sultanag9717]

Excellent information here, very indepth knowledge. Just as an aside, when you are speaking into the camera if you could please keep the focus still, zooming in and out is rather off putting to the viewer.

Great vid, I think you're subconsciously channelling the yip man look ☺

[@abhishekbanerji6559]

Looking good, Sifu! Helpful and useful video!

[@tangproductions]

Thanks. Are you the Abishek (Doctor) that use to train at my Wimbledon club many years ago?

[@abhishekbanerji6559]

@@tangproductions yes, Sifu. Anthony and I were reminiscing and came across your channel!! Your ways of teaching brought back memories! Glad to see your looking well 🙏🏼

[@tangproductions]

Great to hear from you. I remember you and Anthony well, those good old days! I kind restarted doing some training two years ago, I was a bit of a slob for a while, and thought zimmerframe would hurt the ego :) Hope you’re well!

[@abhishekbanerji6559]

@@tangproductions restarting training clearly served you well!! Is MAI still running? Jango and Les?

[@peterarend6185]

there are no blocks in Wing Chun . Everything is attack!

[@tangproductions]

What’s your definition of block?

[@peterarend6185]

@@tangproductions A block is a dead technique ( rigid, because you fand off! Bong Sao, Wu Sao, Tan Sao and so on are always active and attacking. If, for example, the Wu Sao is usedom to attack a punch, I displace the opponent’s arm and thun throw him off balance. Those who react (block) instead of acting ( attack) are already at a disadvantage. Because the first contact decides on the further course and outcome of the fighters !

[@tangproductions]

@peterarend6185 You have not answered my question. It was not your definition but your opinion based upon no evidence. You stated WC has no block but cannot define instead gave a contrived rationale on the strategy or tactic of a combative situation. You claimed WC has no block - first define block, secondly refer me to the reference of your source and the historical text that substantiate your claim. WC has a history of approx 390 years, please refer to the original source and the peers review.
