Wing Chun - Pelvic Tilt (basic structure) part 1

[franmarder]

ok..... at 1:00 where is the man with the cam in the mirror??

[xxdjcharlierockxx]

nice explanation on the structure sifu jin. i think this and foot work are the most important to learn how to do effectively so the applications of all wing chun can actually be applied. so many movements or applications rely on redirection of oneself or the opponent yet it is rarely seen in demonstrations... and can be the most useful. would love to know your thoughts on this.

Man, I was doing that all the time (without knowing, because it was just relaxing), but my mom kept saying to me, "straighten your back son, you look like an old man!". Lol.

[Lrdvltr]

[GonG108]

[funnyjokers]

[piaten]

Gymnastics really do this too? I guess I have to read up on that! Great video by the way!

[iock]

hahaha

[dreamcastII]

does classical JKD use the pelvic tilt ?

[TheRadiastral]

Wow. Great stuff!

I love it how you explain everything like to a child. Clear and understandable.

Keep up the good work!

[lordcapucino]

nice

[tirok]

very good and so important...

[FoGGeRdk]

sifu got knocked out!!! xD

[ozzie1246]

excellent tip! took me a while to figure this out aswell.

I really should be doing more core muscle exercises :(

[TheSenseofTouch]

I think I was leaning a bit, so when I told my friends to push me, my upper body was about to tip over.

[chinaboxer]

yea, it's very easy to misinterpret the pelvic tilt, straight spine or whatever else instructors call this action, and end up doing it wrong. trust me, it took me years to figure it out.

[RoaringTiger281]

Another well explained lesson and demonstration. Thanks Jin! 5 Stars.

[chinaboxer]

thanks!

[jorgearenas]

i thought you got owned by brian lol

[chinaboxer]

lol...Brian is growing but Jon is actually picking it up pretty fast as well. i always tell all my students that their goal is to surpass me in all aspects, teaching, fighting, etc...it's the only way my method will continue to improve in the future.

[jorgearenas]

lol... that is also what i say when my friends beat me up...i wish all teachers are all like you..wishing you the all best!

[Pharnax]

Nice contribution as always, Jin. I wish there were more people like you out there :)

Very interesting approach to something alot of us are troubled with, I really think this will benefit many people in their WC training.

[chinaboxer]

thanks for the kind words. peace!

[sloppymantis]

hehe when you lifted your legs it is similar to a posture i prescribe for losing weight in the abdomen.. and building muscle there. if you lift the legs up like that @ 30 degrees look Up so as to straighten the spine and life your back up 30 degeres as well.. keep looking up during this so you are kind of using your rear end as the peak of a triangle and your head and toes are the other points of it.. so.. more triangles there hehe Dude thanks so much for making these videos !

[chinaboxer]

nice suggestion. take care and peace!

[sloppymantis]

im currently using this since I n oticed the other day I cant do a sit up with knees bent unless someone is holding my feet.. hehehe.. oh and by the way i believe my practicing kung fu with others has been improved by your various bits of wisdom.. thank you brother :D

[chinaboxer]

that's awesome, keep it up!

[DrTchoky]

Thanks a lot! Have a good one Jin Young. Cheers jp

[chinaboxer]

you too..peace!

[staone1]

thank you

[chinaboxer]

ur welcome. peace!

[bgcorporation]

Wow I always wondered about that. Thank you. This is very understandable, and very cool.

[chinaboxer]

thanks! just remember that this position that i refer to as setting the "brick wall" can be found in several other things such as BJJ, wrestling, aikido, tai chi, kendo, yoga, pilates, gymnastics, singing, playing the piano etc...

[chinaboxer]

thanks everyone for all the encouraging comments. i really do appreciate all of your support. take care and peace!

[TheSenseofTouch]

Is it pelvic or pelvis

[chinaboxer]

it's pelvis but if you are referring to the "action" it is called the "pelvic tilt", i get so confused sometimes! =P

[yieldingbamboo]

coool stuff. definitely needed!

[GreyMauser]

A very good explanation of a concept. Way to go.

[WeakHeadphones]

Hey Jin, thanks for one more helpful video! I just started studying Wing Tsun and I got told this is an important part (the back structure) of generating powerand stability. I want to ask if I can practice that on a wall (without my legs getting in the way, lol). Thank you so much for the videos again!

[chinaboxer]

that's why i wanted to just focus on this concept today. because if you can't do this correctly, then nothing else matters. that's why so many WC practitioners end up learning to "use the hand" to make up the difference since they are lacking true "body power".

[chinaboxer]

yea, practice it against the wall to help you get the "feel" of it and practice on the ground with your shoulders up and feet up to help you develop "core" strength which will help you develop a strong "brick wall" during your movements.
