This is real Chinese Kung Fu.....where a smaller person can take on a larger person purely by technique and quickness, not by brute strength. Keep up the good work.
The late and great Bruce Lee also studied Choy Lay Fut to added his Jeet Kune Do curriculum although has Wing Chun background and also the other arts😊.
Big time - I'd prefer to see all martial arts vids minus music - its not meant to be an aerobics class. Save the tunes for that 5km run / exercise bike etc.
I reached instructor level in LT Wing Tsun...at the time i was doing it it truly sucked. I can understand your perspective about effectiveness. My father taught Choy Lay Fut in the 70's. Its a very effective combination style....speed and strength and body size are paramount in most choy lay fut styles i have seen...but i also dug deeper and found out that with age the effectiveness goes down very fast comapred to other soft styles. And banging hard objects a lifetime is not something that one.
KaiSaiWingChunChina : I’m in my 50’s. Love martial arts. Recently I got a bug to learn CLF. I’ve done soft styles mostly for health. But I hunger for something different something aggressive. But what you say sound wise. The attributes of CLF are for the young and strong, certainly for a beginner. Sad really. I like it. I don’t want to do old man CLF, I already do Tai chi in that case.
@@pascal0868 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PY2WSR_X1qE.html 84 "old" CLF master! Most Taiji master are dont even get 84 in average. I have seen many so called "hard" style masters who get older and move more dynamic and agile in comparison to Taiji masters.
nice vid, shame about the lame emo music backing track. Wtf is it with martial artists and emo/nu-metal? It's so weak. It's like putting Brittney Spears as backing.

Only because a Sifu ( sometimes a full time professional ) can do certain things at a certain age it doesnt mean that i will be able to do it as well. To conclude that i can finish a marathon just because other people can is quite an assumption. Structurally and from the point of efficacy Choy Lay Fut cannot change much ....if it would change radically people would not be able to recognize it as CLF anymore.
A thaiboxer might also want to walk different paths once he is old...but the walking alone is already difficult because the injuries that were accumulated during his youth are going to stay with him. Choy Lay Fut I am sure can be also done with different intents and also intensity of training. It can cripple you or make you also stay healthy. But to say after 30 years of coy lay fut that you suddenly want to turn it into TaiChi just because you want it is quite the stretch.
feels like doing anymore at an older age....a 'similar' scenario can be found in thai boxing and kyokushinkai karate. My guess is you are under 40. Certain things will become more evident with time. Wing Chun is 'mostly' all the same ... but there some that do it very differently. You can check out for example the WENG CHUN line by Andreas Hoffmann online...maybe that can give you an idea how different wing chun can be.
I'm looking very much forward to visit Sifu Wong's school in NY. Special greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (where, unfortunately, we have not even a single Choy Lee Fut school)!
Hello again. I read that your school is located in Brooklyn. I was wondering, to you plan to teach in Manhattan? If not, where in Brooklyn do you teach? Thank you again for any information you can provide.
Who else think "lebron james" sees unharmed with the techniques despite the fact he has very poor balance, I think if he trains hard he would be a deathly CLF weapon... anyway excellent video...yet, the music could be Chinese traditional music, but it's ok for me...
I think the teacher is good...but one can also tell that the big choy lay fut movements dont have quite the effect if your opponent is much bigger. Choy Lay Fut emphasizes speed and strength and if you are tall and have long arms well then it becomes quite the weapon. However not everybody is strong, fast and has a big body.
