Stop The Hook Punch Cold - Wing Chun 

One angle change will affect how to stop a hook punch. Discover how this works in stopping a hook punch cold. Share your insights below about this video.

31 Year trainee in Wing Chun here Dan. Absolutely spot on video. Rarely seen on RU-vid of basic fundamental teaching of the Tan Sau including, entering, shifting, and hitting at the same time. Well Done.

Common method: Block first, hit second. Wing Chun: Block and hit at the same time. JKD: Hit first, block second.

Wow!!! When U see danger, you move in... Thats the key I've been missing!!

You’ve got an outdoor school going on, excellent!

if you turn your body slightly towards the punch while executing the tan sau it will greatly improve the structural integrity and not collapse

This is some of the best JKD teaching I've ever seen. Love it

I love this martial arts videos. Dan we want more videos like this!!

what a nice teacher you are ...! thanks for your all tutorials...

Thank you! I really appreciate the content that you are sharing. ✋🤛

Well done! All the moves are understandable and explainable!

I like how you explain and teach

THANK YOU THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE SEEN SO FAR.🤗

Where was the hook? I didn’t see a hook. All I saw was a sloppy straight-armed windmill. A hook has a bend in the elbow that will go right around your block. It’s also a shorter-ranged lunch.

Fantastic training. Thank you Sir!

So happy I found this ... Youre a great SiFu...

Good job, Dan!!! ✊

A HAND SALUTE FOR YOU AGAIN MASTER DAN LOK!

Just subscribed to your page. I just want to say thank you for these helpful videos. I've trained in Taekwondo for a year and would still get bullied a lot because it was mostly defense and escapes I was learning. But with your style you demonstrate in these videos I feel more confident in protecting myself but more importantly I feel I can attack and defend almost simultaneously. Thank u again for your videos they are really helping me be more confident and calm in scary situations.

Always...excellent videos! Great communication of principles and applications of Wing Chun.

Nice and inspiring video,thanks Dan

Dan Loc, u r the truth

Excellent master, excellent.

Good stuff Dan. Hooked.

I LOVE your Wing Chun videos. You are an excellent teacher. Please keep making these. ☺💪

Thanks again

I was practicing this yesterday

Thank you for your videos and your teachings. I have survived street attacks and street fights and usually is from bigger opponents who will use boxing as a method of attack. Self defense could be complicated. For me it goes down to knowing what works for my body type and psychology. Panic and fear will come, for those reasons I keep it simple, am a moving target and my attack is always lethal. Even after a good four decades I still practice the exact same routine step by step. The question for me has been, how do I beat some one who is better and stronger on my worst day. Many great technics won’t work for everyone, we are limited by our physical abilities, is up to the student and teacher to find out what that is and practice what will work. Thank you for indulging me and I hope you continue making more videos.

I've been doing martial arts for years and I can tell how good and instructor is from one demonstration. And after this vid. . . SUBSCRIBED lol WELL DONE

You are awesome my dude

nice technique, (HTC group 3), Thank you

Awesome ☯☯☯☯☯🔥🔥🔥🔥 you inspire me more and more.

New subscriber from London. Love the video. Fresh air, brilliant views and clear precise instructions from a very informative Sifu. I learnt under Grandmaster Victor Kan many years ago as well as under Sifu Tam Yiu Ming who was taught under Grandmaster Leung Ting. Took a long break but have been training everyday for past few months. Recapping on the three forms and I've also just installed the wooden dummy at home. You gave me the bug back. Thanks. Stay safe.

Great idea to add the pseudo- intensity around 7:10, helps reflexes and actions under pressure of attack.

Really so Nice Master😊😊😊

Great videos.

sifu dan this is gold:)i am in ore love to train under you sir

Good demonstration on stop a hook punch thank you.😊

Thank u sir...

Awesome , this one of favourite moves, I guess , as it the ovious. Beautiful Sea in the Background. ❤😀

Super very very great Amazing ultimate 😊😊❤❤

This is very interesting. I'll most likely practice something similar to this in it's essens as I see it and filosofi. Thank you for the lesson it was indeed very interesting and useful info.

Thank you very much for teaching us great practical fighting techniques, such as a combined bock & strike like a knife. 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Amazing

very good explanation and execution marry christmas i' am a fun of simplicity i could say in almost everything!!.

Great technique. I can see clearly how this will set up several offensive strikes. Thank you.

What bro!!!! Thank you I haven't fight yet

Right On!

Yes when ur palm is down its way better and like you said forward energy,you can't wait good videos bro keep it up

I’ll practice it Dan Lok be water my friend

That's a great technique practice Wing Chun and that's one of the first things I love that and I do know for a fact the way you demonstrate it it do work you can set up multiple moves to combination choices of striking and ability that you can hit the strike at the same time and seconds

Great video

Master Dan lok great to watch ur martial arts video clips. Its very short techniques and aggressive bt I also want to watch the kicking techniques more ..not only fist

Thank you

Nice

Hats off.. very nice

Awesome video Dan Lok! Very detailed & appreciate all your videos! Keep the spirit of Bruce Lee alive! 😃

Hello Dan, I was wondering if you’re accepting students for Wing Chun training? I’m located in Vancouver and would love to learn from you!

I tried it on my dad when I got home from school but he still knocked me out..

i really like all your videos Dan,around my neighborhood what i need the most is the how to block and how to knock a bitch out videos!!not my first choice but unfortunately a much needed survival skill in my world thanks for all of em🌸

music works well for reflex/timing and stamina training, pick a move to do on every note and do it through the whole song, the pace will change throughout the song but you can use a metronome it you want a steady pace

I love how Dan called the hook punch: sucker punch. Cool. BullyBilly.

very useful, even for me being a boxer

There is only one way to have no fear.You have to practice in real street fighting.Greerings from Greece.

Cool stuff man i wonder where is that beautiful lake/ ocean and maple leafs

I liked the video. You showed a really good technique to stop the hook. The only thing I would say that wasn’t really a hook. It was a swing. But regardless, the principles are the same. Nice one! 👍

U r much right intercepting the fist just like Bruce Lee was teaching.

Very good video for beginners. I'm happy to be trained the correct way when it comes to simple blocks like this and I think its quite a pity that many wing chun practitioners do this wrong!

That being said I respect this teacher a lot and I like wing chun a lot But I also really appreciate boxing

In the lineage that I practice that block which looks like a reverse tan sao is called bil sao where you 'cut' into the punching arm while you deliver the counter-attack at the same time.

Good

So fucking technical. That was fucking AWESOME. Best I've seen on RU-vid yet!!

On the Columbia River Washington State? Great.

Very good! Do you do "The Chinese Windmill"? A double sideways round swing sweep - first to the nose, second to temple. Repeat on each forward step. Or first to the hands, then nose, then head. And so on.

Awesome video! We trained this yesterday in our jkd class.

I realize the hook punch is the most difficult to deal with for most systems, but this method could be dangerous. Aiming for the inner elbow to block means near impossible to block a taller fighter. His forearm, thus fist will meet your face before you can block the arm. There are better techniques applied in WC that would work better imo.

i love your JKD Video

Hey Dan, I'm a beginner and love Bruce Lee and is this for beginners to watch?

yes this video its good.you let us see what happen if you do tan sau. or you hold palm of the hand side way in oure whing chun we do the palm of the hand side way. cause its stronger i practise whing chun lineage wan kam leung.and most time go forward if someone atack you.greetings from the netherlands. and sorry for my bad english

A really good proper hook punch is usually at middle distance and comes straight in from the side and is almost impossible to block with any Wing Chun block because the punching arm is bent at right angles and goes right round that type of block and not executed with the arm extended out like you are showing and practicing with this drill. Think you should teach them how to do a proper boxing hook first before trying to defend against it.

I like the fact you bring up training the nervous system cause many don't touch on that.. I did 4yrs in the military and had a Arms room Sgt really into WuShu and he gave me pointers.. I was always into Jeet Kung Do and Thai Boxing but learn from all Self-Defense styles and do a blend of what feels comfortable for me.. It works for me.. My aunt was a Brown belt in Tae Kwon Do by the time I was 7yrs and would take me to her classes and she teach me stuff.. Wasn't into tournament styles.. Love ya vids

I like your break down and explanation of the techniques. One thing I have not seen explained by any martial artists is "can you break your hand or knuckles when you do a straight punch to some ones chin (chin bone)?

Sorry Dan but when you move forward your left arm is not a tan sao anymore. Check your video. It looks more like a modified left fut sao. But i'm a fan.

Thats great for long hooks ,what about short or front hand hooks?

Thank you again... My wife is getting it... "Thats exactly what you say" she says... Maybe its a wife thing? Im also evolving my style "Wing Chun" 32 yrs and Im still learning. Thank you.

Better with rotation?
