Wing Tsun Scandinavia - Benno Westra & Pele Nguyen - Chi Sau

[gmsifumania]

bullshit Wing Chun,

Looks like Leung ting shit.

[whatsthematter1979]

I think he started wingtsun in 1998 or something like that...

[wrshredder]

Im not pro at WC but im pretty sure that punch at 0:05 isn't wing chun.. he's sideways to the opponent (centerline wtf) and he locks his hand at the last punch (not very wise either)..

[whatsthematter1979]

@wrshredder it's a punch from the long po

[tezoAZ]

Nowaays people become sifus and grandmasters because of the money.

[Slushhhhy]

@tezoAZ

That may be the case >.> but it takes a lot of time and probably a lot of there own money to be able to get trained to that level :/ not to mention hard work and that

[joj0823]

He started wing tsun under sifu sergio iadarola,then formed his own association

now he is under wan kam leung

he was always very very stiff did chi sao with him about 5 years ago,he was a student level then so he probably improved

good luck to him and sifu sergio they are both doing a good job promoting wing tsun in amsterdam!

[cptroger]

In 2001 he was 5PG in the LT system, so let's forget about your second paragraph.

[Marvel952]

Say the lies .. Westra has never been a 5PG in LT System .. he was only a practitioner of muay thai and then studied with Master Sergio .. 4 years. His wing chun sucks .. and the Vietnamese, which has as its first student, is a dickhead!

[kadirturkerwingtsun]

And this is only a demonstration.

For the real deal it would be better to check out a seminar.

Nuff said.

[ugotpaul65]

i know your sifu he started wing chun under sifu sergio he is an ok and friendly guy but his wing chun is of a low level but then again he started practicing wing chun only 8 years ago

think he got it to high in his head when he founded his own wing chun system

EGO problem?

anyway he now started to train under wan kam leung think he realised he can better still be a student instead.

[kadirturkerwingtsun]

This is my sifu. I know that he has won many tournaments in MUAY THAI KARATE AND TAEKWONDO for all the people who be dissin you probably never fought a real fight.

He is a cool sifu to have and I am proud at it that I Train under him and sihing Pele Bas and Elvin.

[qachaqi]

How do you know he is good? Did you see him in realfighting somewhere? Did you see him fighting in the tournaments?If so, then you are right. No offence(:(;.

[PuddingblendeR]

benno just rules...

[Bossie1962]

This clip is not half as good as Sifu Benno is in real life.A great teacher,a great human being and a amazing transparant person.

[MuoGa]

Hes my fucking teacher! The best person in the world! Do you go on it too? Im in the kids part though. ill go to the teenagers next week.

[juntaokungfu]

great clip thanks for sharing

[Porce1ain]

I just had a seminar with Mr. Westra. The bloke is nothing short of amazing.

[luisin1984]

Does anyone has more inforation on this Sifu's level at Leung Ting Wing Tsun ?

[tillerbear]

Yeah I think he reached 5PG WT. (But he's also trained many other lineages)

He is also a former world Taekwondo AND BJJ champion.

[11Kralle]

@luisin1984

by looking at his dress one can tell he is not member of leungting-WT anymore. Some of the movements do not even look as they should do. Remember the saying: if it is looking strong - it is weak. BUT: since this is a demonstration, you have to assume, that he is showing off and avoid real hits. Besides, the big red stripes on the trousers refer to third or fourth grade of technician level...

[Falkmand]

@11Kralle Big stripes means 5-6 practitian... 3-4 technician have small red stripes...

[11Kralle]

@Falkmand

...ment... there are new IWTO/EWTO-dresses out for some time. But you were right about that grading! Shouldnt a practician wear a red shirt?

[sallah098]

He does'nt need to generate power he's only demonstrating, unless he wants to really hurt his student use your common sense you Wing Chun guys. The only time he will generate power is if he is in a real fight.

[wingtsun20]

He doesn't look like any normal WT Practioner...?

[tillerbear]

Well i guess he is'nt he completed the WT system under Leung Ting as well as training WSL VT and other Wing Chun lineages. He's developed his own system of teaching which is mainly WT but incorporates elements of VT/Wing Chun as well as BJJ and Groundfighting.

[Muanh]

Where did you get your information?

[apadora]

this guy totally missed WC concept which supposed to be "soft" and "relaxed" that's how you generate power. This guy just looks fast and fancy but no power, trust me..he's got NO chance on a good tranditional partitioner.

[wingtsun20]

He's too rigid for an Master... Too... Cant say the word.. lol

[timtim1065]

hi fellow WC, VT, whatever... practisioners... excuse my spelling.. lol

theres some cool movie-style moves in there.. i like the "getting lap-sau'ed" going into the body slam... and then the "jin" punch (arrow punch)? anyone else know what i'm talking about?

also, i'd like to ask if everyone's sifu's like to take down students like that.. or whether its just for the sake of the video.. cuz.. ow..

[Gonchalitu]

too agresive ;D

[tillerbear]

Im afraid chi sau cannot be too agressive.
