[fadrezz515]

Grandmaster of the century!!

[pud22dup]

the man (IP) the legend thanks for postin this

[MegaIlikebread]

I wanna learn wing chun... too bad wing chun is not here :(

[phambo40920]

R.I.p. grandmaster

[TheChazman888]

Best quality I have ever seen of this, from time ago. Loved it.

[wingchunaddict4288]

Is the man standing behind GGM Ip Man from 6:41 his son, Ip Ching ? He looks so like GM Ip Ching

[EffectiveArts]

It's nice to see the real Wing Chun forms demonstrated by Yip Man... Ip Man's Wing Chun... I like!!! Don't know why some say it's not the real thing!!!

[SuperDueceduece]

That was beautiful. I loved it.

[11Kralle]

I wonder HOW unedited the woodendummy-part is, or if it has been shot in different occasions. One can also see how ill YipMan suffered on cancer in the chamkiu - hos left arm seems to be hurting...

[kungfusnoopy1]

Thank you so much after watching both movies I am very impressed with Wing Chun.:) ....Bow

[huhsnare]

Ip Man on the wooden dummy is epic

[Bujincoren]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing

[eperedo13th]

Just saw Ip Man 1 & 2. After seeing those movies. I've come very fascinated with learning more about Ip Man. I just wish I could of met this legend.

[lancswingchun]

@eperedo13th Sadly he passed away in 1972 but his two sons and some of his students are still alive. more info on kwokwingchun dot co dot uk

[CastleVDracX111]

Wow super great!

and rare!

but look!

there's a 1 Justin Bieber GAY disliker!

[BMwarcrimes]

Ip Man.. A true legend... So nice to be able to see the true master at work :)

[1392771]

oh nice

[gameofdeath4288]

Great clip! It's a little bit sad to know that he would pass away some days after that....

[BahaVII]

The internet is a brilliant thing

[8cspohn]

So, someone tried to sale this footage, really I don't believe that! , I they did shame on them, and to bad for the buyer. That is nice footage you can see he is felling a little tired in the movements.

[lancswingchun]

@8cspohn its still for sale in many places $20 per form.... a crime in my opinion

[T9XKR3W]

Whoever disliked this ought to be shot.

[RangRing68]

@TheMartialartsJedi You have to do the sil lim tao form before the chum kiu form.

[Punchabearinnamouf]

This is poetic, and somber all at once. The man was so dedicated to martial arts that he did this even though he was close to death. His skills are still very apparent from the video, but it's also apparent he is not well.

At about 5:47 it looks like his student stepped forward to catch him in case he fell.

Yip Man was truly great.

[H4CK3J2]

Rest in peace!!! T_T

Yip man The legend of Wing Chun !!

[fightmate]

right fist left palm to Grandmaster Ip Man

[fulanito7]

Yip Man is my Hero.,,,, I love You ip man really Love you..

[Cal1skater]

Fantastic !!!

Its good to have a reference to how Ip Man performed the forms even if you practice certain parts a little differently. Triggers questions as to why bits are different among styles and do they have any merit in their addition to the form. At the very least this should give a minimum standard for the forms.

[ashrocks87]

can you guys please post a breakdown of the chum kiu and the wooden dummy forms?

i would like to put it on writing to remember easier while training and i know almost everyone would also like to.. thanks and more power!

[TheLycan11]

i have seen this footage so many time on the internet and youtube in particular...this is the highest quality version i've found...this is amazing. thanks for this treasure. RIP GM Ip Man

[lancswingchun]

@TheLycan11 Most people sell this footage but it was filmed to keep the standard up not make money so Sam and Ip Man's son's agreed to publish it :-)

[BCSana]

Thank you for sharing!  Most appreciated!

[blazels]

love this :) ip man r.i.p. im on the 108 movement form its nice to see a master work it

[WingChum]

This is great that that so many people from the Yip Man lineage can see how he performed the forms.

The thing that strikes me is that Sil Lim Tao has more tension in it at certain points than many "Masters" seem to demonstrate.

I can see the entire tense & release of force that generates short range power.

So many versions seem to be TOO relaxed all the way through.

[ozzie1246]

@WingChum Correct. A common misconception is that the first section (where he slowly move his hands back and forth in certain positions) is training the positions of the blocks.

It is true that it is teaching you about your centreline position. However it is MOST importantly training elbow energy, which comes from relaxing the bicep, and using ONLY the tricep and a little muscle just behind the elbow that is otherwise unused in day to day life. Think of it as the WC version of going to the gym.

[ozzie1246]

@WingChum Also, it is the second section where the applications of the blocks and their positions are truly being practised.

[WarriorBoy]

This is very important footage to everyone who has an interest in Wing Chun. In many other styles, the style was either too ancient or circumstances prevented their greatest masters being filmed. It's fortunate that we have this record of one of the true legends of Chinese Martial Arts.

It's also inspirational to consider that he passed away a week after this footage was taken.

[shengchenfan]

This is precious treasure.

[brucew22]

very cool, thanks for sharing. Amazing footage.

[wizedomeallah]

@TheMartialartsJedi You are free to practice in your own way. But, that is a little like memorizing your multiplication tables without first having learned basic addition and subtraction. It may sound good to recite them (or in this case, look good to practice), but it is not build on any real foundation. JMHO. Good luck with your training.

[rgvwingchun]

sweet. I have this same footage ;)

[YIMVINGTSUNPAI]

Thank you very much!

[Boozmork123]

Amazing. Thanks for posting. I still have a lot to learn :p

[Cal1skater]

this is amazing and you can really see the powerful will grandmaster Ip had towards the end. A true martial artist and a truly magnificent person to have that kind of will and determination. thank you for posting

[boxxKING47]

Hey Man Thank You Very Much for this upload

[tjwingchun]

great to see the unedited version published, but I would say your next project is to digitally enhance the footage ;-)

[lancswingchun]

@tjwingchun haha go for it Trev - think Ip Chun paid £10,000 just to have it brought up to this quality.

[SuperAbs1]

what a strong person ip man was, truely and inspiration

now this is the real wing chun

[lancswingchun]

@TheMartialartsJedi maybe best to start with sil lim tao as chum kiu builds on the basic movements in sil lim tao. Thats why its taught first but its up to you.

[fireslacker]

legend lives on

[Kilchattan]

Fantastic historical document for all Wing Chun practitioners. Thanks for posting. We hope we can entice Sigung back over the Scottish border again sometime soon 

[Kilchattan]

Fantastic historical document for all Wing Chun practitioners. Many thanks for posting

[osummuso]

Nice.

Thanks for sharing this.

[wutanSpain]

A great video. I think everyone who does kungfu Ip Man have to do it as Ip Man in the video, can not make it different.

[tjwingchun]

@wutanSpain understand you meaning but Yip Man believed in progression and as long as you have good reason for changes then it is fine to do so, he told Yip Ching once when asked about changing the form that he could do what he wanted with the form, the truth about whether the changes were good ones would be found out down the generations and if the changes survived then they were good.

[buckinchicken987]

thank you for sharing this, ive always wanted to see the whole thing and couldnt really find it.. plus its in realtime haha... this is pure awesomeness.. like yip man

[Dynnaro978]

OMG thank you!
