Ving Tsun Seminar 2007 in Mannheim, Germany

wingchununited — Sat, 03 Dec 2022 19:18:41 +0000

Some impressions of the Seminar with Sifu Tommy Yuen (Yuen Yim Keung) in Mannheim Germany.

Sifu Yuen Yim Keung

Yuen Yim Keung was one of Wong Shun Leung’s more gifted fighters, he learnt the hard and long way, so much so that he spent more than eight years learning the Baat Jaam Do (Ving Tsun’s famous Knife form). This was to lay a strong foundation in his own mind. He is a very articulate teacher, giving his utmost attention to his students, in the form of advice and correcting technique. Here is an insight into one man’s perspective of how Ving Tsun should be performed.

Springtime – by Filmmaker, Peixuan Wang

wingchununited — Wed, 20 Apr 2022 21:35:20 +0000

Springtime is a celebration of a lifelong martial artist gracefully moving to a new chapter of his career despite the physical challenges due to aging.

This film aims to investigate the meaning of life through the lens of a passionate martial artist and instructor, who dedicated over 48 years of his life practicing and teaching Wing Chun Kung Fu. Peixuan Wang tells a visual story about Sifu Michael Militano, and his lifelong dedication to the Chinese martial arts and culture.

What’s Next For Springtime?

Unfortunately, the campaign for crowd funding this project has ended. While we were late to the party, if we were aware of the possibility to contribute to the release of this full-length feature, Wing Chun United would have whole-heartedly supported Wang’s endeavor. As filmmakers ourselves, we deeply value the impact that visual story telling has on the ability to successfully share the rich Chinese culture and traditions of gong fu.

Wing Chun Basics – Solo Stepping Kicking Punching

wingchununited — Tue, 17 Nov 2020 22:27:12 +0000

Adding punches to your stepping and kicking will help with coordination and timing but learn to kick correctly first.

Learn to punch of your lead hand, after kicking and without pulling it back first – the rear hand should land in time with the rear leg landing or shuffling up. You arms should recoil naturally and stay relaxed after striking, ready to perform further actions. Avoid and head and arm balancing movements that will telegraph your intent; this is also a sign of poor bodily alignment. Once you are confidently kicking at a low level, you can begin to raise the height of your kicks. Having said that, Wing Chun kicks should always be low in practice.

Chi Sau Attack and Defend Drill Training

wingchununited — Tue, 30 Apr 2019 15:27:49 +0000

Chi Sau is often misunderstood to mean trapping or staying in contact (sticking) with the opponents arms, the actual meaning is to free the arms from obstructions and maintain the attack. In fact Chi Sau is not what we want to happen in self-defense, but if we get blocked out or tangled by the opponent, Chi Sau develops automatic reflexes for getting back to the center-line.

Chi Sau trains you to let the opponent show you how to hit them, it is in actuality fixing a problem of access and not gaining an advantage of control. In Wing Chun we always chase center and never chase hands, Chi Sau should always develop the instinct to chase the center-line and take position.
