Countering the Lap Sau - Wing Chun, Kung Fu Report - Adam Chan 

True wish it wasn't so unique but he appears to be from the USA internet

I used to Onow an Adam Chan in Sacremento, he was a street fighter he knew jitsu and Wing Chun, he used to kick the bag so hard he would knock it off the chain, he trully was like Bruce Lee.

K P i agree he is a good teacher,but I have to disagree with you on the short and sinking comment. It depends on your knowledge of the art. All lineages of WC are not the same. Doesn’t mean it’s not WC. So schools apply techniques differently. I’m looking at how practical and efficient he is. He’s fluid in his movements and transitions in and out,..mid range, Short range or close. Although this is just a demo, you can’t sleep on his approach.

@@JEM-fo6rs I have been watching him. For over a year and I have been wing chun myself for 15yrs.... and the common denominator is it all came from one source.... and originally according to the 3 arts (yes 3, good history lesson) shoalin short strike, emei and white crane it was never intended to be used this way and explains why wing chun almost all cases becomes overwhelmed by other arts.

K P sorry again I don’t agree with you. That’s depending on your knowledge and historical information regarding the art. Different lineages have different historical information. I’ve been training on and off just as long as you my friend. And there are various view points on the original approach of WC. Did you mention 3 arts to create WC? Well Where I study it’s 5. See does it really matter? Long as it’s effective, practical and efficient and you’re using the principal that were taught,..I say rock on! With the current claimant of WC challenge matches videos it’s not looking good for the art I love.

KP Shouldn't this be about what works? If it is effective use it and if it doesn't work keep training. Are you saying it's incorrect because it is being used differently from how you were taught or are you saying it's ineffective? If the latter why is it ineffective? Is there a link to a video where someone is doing it more effectively for comparison that you will share?

@@sasoriko @1000delight is the channel. He is a researcher on wing chun. But man sau wu sau is the biggest enemy, lead hand and rear hand needs to be closer to the body. I would say experiment with that concept when practicing and sparring, it's like a whole new world.

You should know Overstool

Would you pressure test situps or any other training exercise?

Cristian Vintila last time I checked, people don’t claim sit-ups to be a martial art or self defense.

@@nebula2294 My point is that it's a training exercise.

Cristian Vintila and my point is some wing chun schools act as if they’re a viable method of self defense. I respect wing chun and the people that use it, of course. But there are a lot of liars out there that probably get people hurt

@@nebula2294 at one point sifu says "think in terms of circles" ... This kata is not supposed to be strictly applied, it's meant to be practiced so that when you are being attacked you understand what movements counter other certain movements. If someone is striking your chest counter by stepping out and pushing their hands away from you and into them while constantly moving and keeping your hands free of a lock. This is a basic principle in close quarters defense. BJJ, muay Thai, systema, straight up boxing too. It's not that this kata should be applied in combat, it's the principal of the kata. At the end of the day if you maintain the principal of preventing your attacker from striking as they please and force them to reassess their movements you will eventually find the opportunity to strike and then lead with your momentum. That's all this is.

you can say that about all the other fighting methods. as long as your opponent gives an opening it works otherwise it doesnt.

Azir emperor of the sands, eh? Mma is tested with opponents who don’t cooperate at all, except in avoiding certain banned rules

@@EmperorsNewWardrobe first off all, this is a demo from the teacher to the student. you cant resist a technique you have never seen before as a student. when you practice in mma you do the same thing, first the instructor shows the technique and then you practice it with other students. also, i never said cooperate. in every fight people make mistakes and the opponent reacts to those mistakes. that is how fights are won in mma considering most people train hard as hell. and since there are weight devisions 2 fighters are not that far appart in strength and skill, its all about what they do in the moment and how they react to eacht others moves. I do not believe wing chun can be effective in mma at all as it is now. but to suggest that it is useless is a very ignorant and foolish thing to say.
