Wing Chun For Beginners: Basics, Fundamentals and Drills 

"the mouse trap himself"... I like that one.

I've never trained in this style or experienced 1st hand any practitioner of this style. But, I do some similar movements, which I learned in Kenpo and Aikido as a kid. At first, these types of moves didn't really work for me against real attackers. But, over the years, it became obvious that it wasn't the techniques that failed me, it was my structure. This was something Mr. Fong said in this video, and I totally agree with.

What a OUTSTANDING TEACHER!!! 🔥🤙🏾

i got to see this both of these guys in person and lets just say..... these guys are legit

Francis Fong would absolutely annihilate anyone in this comment section. He uses Wing Chun techniques with his BJJ skills (not shown here). It’s masterful. This dude would floor any of us in a few seconds. I’d even wager someone of his skills in their prime would dominate their weight class in MMA.

I’m coming by there one day soon

To be able to fight with Wing Chun the gangsters learned 6 months and then went out and fought any kind and any size of fighter in the old Hong Kong days. Once it became a corporate dojo, sticking hands art then the emphasis was no longer on real fights. It was never a ring-fighting art except for just a small number of schools. Wing Chun is just some good ideas taken from many other fighting arts. The main thing is to attack the center, the throat as every animal does. If you can't pull this off, then your Wing Chun is not good enough. You have to train it against other martial arts. Wing Chun is a super good addition to any other existing art. We had many students who were good at other martial arts including MMA who enhanced their art by learning close range in your face attacks. We viewed Wing Chun as an attack art, like what a dog does, not a blocking art which no boxer does. We attack but if countered, we don't care. Maybe 90% of people who study martial art do it for the art, for health for fitness for many reasons but never have the chance to have real fighting experience as it would probably land them in jail anyway. For tournaments, it is best to learn a tournament art. Arm bars and taking people to the ground is great for one on one but not so much if there are a few attackers, especially those who are armed. If you are with family or are older or injured, then running is not an option. Having a gun isn't allowed in many countries but where is allowed, you better know how to use it and be ready with it at all times. Once you learn any pure art then you must study what everyone else does for fighting. Judo throwing onto a nice mat is one thing but a Judo throw onto concrete is quite another. Here law enforcement people have used this art for close-range situations. Many officers also had, Judo, Karate, Boxing wrestling, and police tactics in their background. Every art is just another tool. If you make Wing Chun into a style like Donnie Yen, then it will not work. Styles don't work but attributes like good positioning, stability, speed, power, and timing are things that work. Doing art like doing a form, doesn't work. Use no style as your style. Most people also adopt Filipino arts into their curriculum as does the teacher in this video. He is also versed in MMA and other arts. If you think some art sucks, then put your words into action and challenge the good people in that art to learn why it does or doesn't work. everybody can shoot their mouth off. There are lots of super-qualified keyboard martial artists out there. Every art has it's place including dojo MMA and even arts like Tai Chi and Aikido if trained for combat. In a gun culture, learn to use a gun. In a knife culture learn to use a knife. In a culture that throws acid in your face, you better learn from those cultures too. Wing Chun should just be called close-range combat and trained that way. Once you put a label onto an art, it becomes garbage art to most people. In Hung style, the training in the old days was 10 solid years, or that art, then going out and fight. But that was the old days. Now you will either get shot or end up in jail. Don't argue with people about martial art, religion, or politics. It never helps. Don't argue with stupid people either. People like Mike Tyson, who is for real, don't argue with people who know nothing about boxing. If you can't do the walk, then don't talk.

Ppl who have negative comments talk from a place of inexperience. If your so good and you think you can take these guys on then go to there school then tough guy

Its funny that people say that wing chun doesnt work in a fight. Of course there isnt one martial art that can beat them all. Train all of them. Get good at all of them and thats how you win in a fight.

3:27 Right there, his stance tells you everything you want to know about his fighting skills. This is no bushido.

Everybody have fun tonight, Everybody Wing Chun tonight.

Damn that woman is extremely receptive to the instructor lol

3:50 Gotham Chess, Is that you?

Whing chun çok güzel bir danstır

Master Renton put it nicely once.... Wing Chun gives you a false sense of security of self defence and could be harmful if that is all you know... But it is still better than no experience at all. Practicing Wing Chun is amazing, it truly is. And whacking bob with Wing Chun style kicks, combos, chains and chins still gives that confidence you'll need in any sticky situation. I love Francis Fong work, but I really wish it wasn't against Kevin Lee. They have really good cohesion... they'd make a great movie.

Assuming train 3 times per week. How long does it take to be sufficient to self defense?

I found wing chun as useful asset, but only though the lens of Boxing, Wrestling and Mma training...

Why i cannot learn 咏春: every time i make that stand there is a sound of O'ni Chan in my brain bro

This is modified wing chun , not traditional, but still not a bad defense

Fighting against a grappler, Wing Chun is not practical alone. I watch Francis Fong's video. His MMA is Teaching MMA is mastery level. Which again comes to my point, nothing can beat MMA unless combined with grappling. I think he is combining both Wing Chun and grappling practically. 💔

I just come here to hear all the teenagers crap on Francis.

Meanwhile Mike has all but disavowed his Wing Chun saying it's absolete in modern fighting.... IJS... Did he change his mind or?

Ip man style

Problem is... Fights are never stationary. Advancing or retreating... Not Stationary

I used to play like that when I was a kid 😂😂😂 patty kay patty kay 😂😂😂

Boxing 52blocks savate does works not against of knives and guns of course. Other martial arts showing off gets you punch in the face inside. No one fights southpaw to southpaw or two dead legs. fight is to kill not fight. But prison is not a life if you want you're asshole be candy.

yeaaaaa ... that cant be for beginners XD

The teacher here seems fine but the senior students at the back look like they are full of ego! I see it so much with long time peeps think they are good but in reality…

What the hell? This is at least part social experiment no?

What?

God, I hate Kevin's clumsy footwork. He falls forwars like a small tree.

👎

I wish wingchun actually worked so bad. Its so cool, but its complete BS.

Silly stupid BS! Dude would get taken out by an advanced beginner to intermediate boxer in a few seconds.

Why is that guy wearing a mask? Seriously

Pitty patty hand play. No use in a real fight. Just chk out fights in a hockey game. No way this crap works in an all out full contact fight w d attacker charging @ u throwing multiple wild punches. Chk out these real full contact sites: Offence wins. Once u go on defence like w WC, u lose. Streetbeefs Streetbeef GoPro Scrapyard GoPro Bareknuckle full contact fighting Underground Street fighting World Street fight championship etc . . .
