@MegaSmud without hand contact makes it easier, put all the responding, reflex, or counter moves aside, and have one straight punch or side punch onto the nose with the other hand protecting ur own face would solve the problem.
VERY VERY NICE VID. Awesome skills presented here. This guy hs a very powerful tiger spirit. The skill preented should scare any internal boxing practitoner into a wing chun school or a least to interate the techniques into his/her style and practice them ruthlessly. If you practice MMA standup, clinch, takedown situations, box, kickbox, pushhands, or wrestle and or do ground and pound manuvers these traping and striking skills will be a tremendous advantage in unarmed-combat of any kind.
god he's fast..I have been training for nearly 4 years now and I know I am fast, but I always feel slow when I spar with my sensei..I feel slow just WATCHING this guy!
I believe what this proverb means is to attack, fight or proceed in such a way that you can be close to your opponent, ie, sticky hands so that you have feeling.
@BobRawksBaby physique makes a different. Too many WC practicianers focus too much on techniques but don't condition their body to take punishment or even basic cardio.
@mastergsan same as any unarmed person on the street... martial art doesn't make anyone invincible... with that said, neither can a gun or knife if that person doesn't know what they're doing.
it means "hard and soft both applied simultaneously and reinforce and strengthen each other". This is not only famous Wing Chun philosphy and famous Chinese maxim, but is a signature of Wan Kam Leung. I have not heard any other Wing Chun sifu use these words, but they could. The phrase is a Chinese proverb, that applies to Wing Chun philosophy.
.... not a traditional Wing Chun maxim. Wan sifu has these words written very large in calligraphy and on wood in his school in yau ma tei, so whoever said this is most likely a student of Wan sifu, or at the very least is very familiar with Wan sifu's Wing Chun philosophy.
@sifuevangelos as a matter of fact it is. wing chun has a whole load of maxims. the foshan wing chun association recently (2009) created a wing chun song out of those maxims
@sifuevangelos actually a better translation for the last character would be 'present' as in 'present and accounted for'. The meaning of the phrase is actually better translated as "Possess both strong and soft"
This guy is pretty good. It must took him long enough to do those kind of moves. I mean, u have to do ALOT of practice inorder to be this good(with eyes close)Thumbs up for this dude
I personally find it easier with eyes closed, or looking away... At least in practice with a 'soft' chi sau. When I observe my eyes are drawn to one or other fist, and, thus I miss the fight (and get hit). Close your eyes and you learn to feel. Reaction to a touch stimulus is much faster than see-process-think-react...

Greetings from LA , my Sihing Evangelos! I'm a new 4 month student of Sifu Gary Lam, luvin every moment when I train there in his backyard with my other Wing Chun brothers. It's not just great and awesome Wing Chun we get to learn, but just that special cosy feeling of Sifu's backyard with the orange trees, grapes, etc. Fantastic! Hope U get to come back for a visit in Monterey Park, CA in 2010!! take care and awesome videos !
bruce lee should be the father of mma.. he introduced us to mixed styles of fighting.. and he respects each and every MA if bruce lee was still alive.. he would own evry one
Even the layperson should be able to see the difference between somebody with the SKILL shown here and the countless Youtube videos of people "playing" at Kung-Fu.
Seriously, Im getting sick and tired of little faggs that come and comment on kung fu/ wushu... You guys literally have no idea what a trained wing chun user can do. People bring up ufc, I could apply a wing chun chain punch with the tiger claw hand form, those rapid fire strikes would be going to your eyes and throat. In mma, thats not exactly following rules and regulations...
My conclusion. Take any MMA fighter and put them in the street with a wing chun user of at least 3 years... OVERKILL
me to i agree with what your saying but the only thing i dont agree with is saying our MA would kill anyone else its not about the MA its about the practitioner and how good that person is at his MA. I have respect for every other MA and the people who practice it no MA is easy to pick up it all takes time and heart to build yourself up so all im saying is before people mindlessly type crap on the internet please use your brain and think about what your going to type thank you :)
problem with WC in these days is that it lacks good instructors, people who have their shit together and have fought in the street. most martial arts teachers these days give their art actually a very bad reputation and that counts for WC too sadly. The standard got very low. Tell me how many WC schools do full contact training? maybe 0.5% of all WC schools out there and mostly the schools aren't known to the wide public
lol i wonder that aswell but at the time karate was the big thing and he was up their with the best in karate or he was the best i cant remember thats why bruce lee wanted to fight him in his film and after the film chuck even confessed he would get his ass kicked by bruce but then again i dont think anyone would want to fight bruce not unless they had a death wish :D lol
you gotta be kiddin me chuck was one of the hardest kickers in his time. chuck and jow lewis were decent fighters. maybe one could consider their stuff as outdated but they WERE the real deal
ufc proved that shit gay styles like these get owned..i know jujijitsu its my life..
i can honestly say that its great art and way of life ..juijitsu is the only art that can be used alone and still kill other styles ..especially kung pao shit like this..
well.. TKD claims it's not meant for cage fight.. I guess in a crowded train Wing Chun wins all. All styles have their use. It's just how and when you apply it.
@GianniGivarche This guy has some pretty fast hands, this isnt the first time UFC has not allowed certain people fight the Dog Brothers were also not allowed they did some pretty nasty Kali moves. Its also rumored that the Gracies dont fight people that are known to be able to beat them. Its said that Rickson Gracie would not fight Gokor or Benny the Jet due to there grappling ability.
I've heard the same kind of thing from two entirely different sources. BTW, these were real people I spoke to in person who've had dealings with the Gracies, (not stuff I read online), one of whom was a grappler (man he hated the Gracies). Basically, from two entirely different sources I heard the same story - the Gracies do everything they can to stack the deck & make sure they win, and most of those things are faaaaar from sportsmanlike.
UFC is just a sport, it bars almost all forms and styles, and they ban shots from behind, elbows to top of head, shots to eyes, throat, and testicles. Most forms of oriental martial arts are based on purely breaking, killing and disabling people, which involves all of those, kung fu in particular is NOT a cage style of fighting.
funny how people that know nothing about martial arts spew their ignorance because they started watching ufc. cut the commentary and just watch suckas :)
took wing chun for a year; I definitely think it could have its applications in a sport setting like MMA
jeez people place way too much emphasis on styles, it's about the trainer/sifu/sensei and the student. I took 2 forms of karate, wing chun, and now I'm learning jiu jitsu and muay thai. stop bitching about styles and just take the martial art that works for you and advances you whether it's boxing, wrestling, kickboxing, etc. etc.
my friend how could u have gone from a taditonal backround like karate to kung fu and start learning this modern sport wrestling brawling style? if u understood how ur stance applys and chi sao from wing chun, why would u choose thai kickboxing and "ground and pound"?
thai boxing is a sport, wing chun a selfdefence.. you dont train to fight against real hardcore thaiboxers, you train it to fight against a common atacker on the street. And also make a difference between al the kinds of wing chun out there in the world.. they became to different so you can't talk about wing chun in one content anymore.. Some wing chun arts suck.. but some are extremly dangerous (and not popular: vt) .. so dont underestimate something you have no clue about
Any martial art is only as good as the practitioner. People pick a style that best suits them. Wing Chun isn't for everyone.
No one style can be said to blanket defeat anyone of any other chosen style as it is entirely dependent on how well the practitioners involved have learned and apply their arts.
Gross generalisations are rarely accurate in my experience.
Most street fights end up being close slap battles of punches trying to get through, and on the ground. This was developed to get around that.
When with boxing, you have these big gloves and your limited to not being able to grab the arms and pushing. I have done boxing aswell, and Ive also tried wing chung.
I heard that Gary Lam is doing a London seminar soon. Nayone know any details? I'm too lazy to go hunting round the internet lol. Please PM me with details
With regards to this clip - nice smooth hands and good transitions - remember that it is only a demo video. If he put the shots in, he would hurt his student and he probably wouldn't come back!!
Saw it at the cinema a few weeks ago (in China) it's actually pretty good. Another film about Yip Man is coming out too (I think Tony Leung is Yip Man in this one), but sadly the director has chosen supreme twat, sell-out and gong fu nobody (and by that I mean he knows absolutely jack shit about gong fu, but thinks he does and he's the shit) Zhou Jie Lun (Jay Chow/Zhou) to play gong fu legend Bruce Lee. I for one will be boycotting this movie. I hope the director has a VERY swift change of mind!
its obvious that you know nothing about boxing from your comment. boxing is speed, precision, technique, and power. some boxers just go for power but they suck.
no. not exactly Mike Tyson was mostly power and good. Yes, he had speed and was agile. He had agility, but he was mostly power and could beat better rounded fighters

wing chun is known to be uncommitted. That means if a strike fails to connect, the martial artist may flow into another strike wiith ease. This can only be achieved when the body and muscles are fully relaxed during striking. This is why wing chun is known so well for chain punches.
ive heard wing chun was originally meant to train chinese soldiers in unarmed combat in a short period, making them battle ready in a short period of time. and was it created by multiple kung fu masters or was it made by a woman? i keep hearing these two different statements
Let me say i respect the hard work and skills of these guys. But, i can't accept it as a good example, even if this is a training fight. What's the matter with one guy doin some punches to the head while the other guy just still stands with his arms down. Throwing some punches without any power behind - no impulse, no hips turning in, not going through the hit point. U have to choose between to express your body in fight or just try to impress non-skilled followers. I am not judging Wing Chun.
guys, first of all it's not a spar session, it's a demonstration ok. showing wing chun moves to people who dont know anything about them. and that's not his training partner, that's his student. this is how students learn in martial arts. if it was a vid of him and his sifu then his sifu would be demonstrating on him.
we have a lot of hip turning and follow through in Wing Chun and I'm sure sifu Evangelos would be happy to give you a friendly demonstration. this is a demo vid, not a spar vid.
furthermore, you really dont know what you're talking about, talking about real fight. Sifu Evangelos has been working night security at the best clubs in Greece for many years and has been in more real fights than probably you and everybody you know combined.
Wing Chun is a real combat art, not sport. Whether anybody wants a real challenge fight, or a polite demonstration, just ask and sifu Evangelos will be happy to show you. Thx for your comments and good luck in your training.
WC fire element attacks uses 1), for structure and power attacks it's 2) and 3), and for hand techniques, Tan, Bong, Huen is 3) and 4). All of WC power attacks are actually a bit of speed, but mostly deep muscle from the structure. Unlike other styles which uses muscle and kenetic energy, WC uses mostly structure.
superdruid, yeah smaller arms are better for wing chun just because theres less resistance so you can get in there faster. alot of wing chun practitioners will work on their triceps more than biceps because it will help strength while maintaining speed.
having said that, sometimes its good to have a little heavy muscle on you so you cant get pushed around by a 400 pound sumo wrestler.
You're right, maybe i argued a bit too generally. I noticed that this is a demonstration, but isn't better 2 demonstrate a clean and realistic technique and isn't more authentic 2 defend against an opponent - even if it's a demonstration. I don't mean 2 fight back, but please keep the hands up or at least try to cover ur head.
If you read between the lines i am talking about defending not fighting.
Thx 4 the offer: Real fights belongs to fighters on both sides, 1 fighter doesn't make a fight.
Again, bearing in mind that this is a demonstration video, look again at the example where he is blindfolded. I know it does look rather like the guy is just holding his arms down, (which he proably is), but in reality the instructor's arms would actually be preventing the other guy from coming up. (Though this does not mean he could not come around in a slightly long-winded manouvre, but again, this is a demo). Trust me, it really does work when you are good at it. No skill comes without effort
olliewells212 he cant but he can fuck your mom blindfolded though hell even i can bang your mom blindfolded too bring the bitch over ..........come on be a good sport....but tell her to shave her back
To the inexperienced fools, no this aint "patty cake." And also addressing to the person who says "Who starts fight touching hands." Statement like these shows your ignorance and you know little of the arts.
This practice is called Chi Sao, a drill for hand sensitivity, this is not how they fight realistically.
Through this practice, they train their mental reflex, sensitivity, and speed to deliver fast, counter-attacks, to the target in combat.
I agree totaly with CupNoodlez,and i have to add something:Yeah it's quite possible to start a fight touching hands..It happens when your opponet is trying to wrestle with you..
it's not THAT impressive that he can do that blindfolded. Their arms are touching. What does he need to see? That being said he's got amazing timing & control & strength.
to real fighter it sounds as if you have never been involded in martial arts or perhaps have been involved in the wrong schools.I'm notsaying that all martial arts out there today are the real deal but martial arts evolved as a system to keep yourself alive feudlistic times and is the basis for all law enforcement, and military self defense systems. please do your research on this if it was all make believe then our soldiers that you reference would never survive a single hand to hand situation.
Real fight is a combat between one or more individual and usually takes place in unpleasent situations and circumstances , martial arts ideas are to con people to give them a pictured confidence using certain cocky and made up fake moves so they can think that they will face a real combat situaton , NO ! a real natural combat situation needs nothing but you fearless and trained to face any circumtances like a soldier! that is the real art of dying in order to kill and not to die !
Hm. I would be more impressed by him blocking every punch (without looking) if there were some variation in the attacks. They come at a constant - slow - pace and aim for same target and come along same path.
Besides, whenever he begins to strike back, his oponents transform into stationary targets making no attempts to evade his attacks.
I do not doubt that he is good, but the video does not demonstrate it IMHO.
Sify Evangelos nice vids! I like appreciate your attention to detail with the chi sao & blindfolds. I live in the Dallas Texas and wanna try Wing Chun are you aware of any instructors in this area?
I love the style of Wing Chun. Mostly attacks on the throat and neck. You can build muscle pretty much anywhere on the body besides 2 areas. Your neck area, and your groan area. Keep them open and your pretty much down on the ground.
In JKD you have just to undrestand the Principiall....this is the iportant thing...if you undrestand that you just have to search the free ways, you will be a good fighter...

I am a senior level IV student in JKD and I got to tell you that this is one of the coolest training videos I've seen who is the master in the blindfold.. That guy is a master's master!!
I need some advice. I live in Lousisiana and to my knowledge their is not a single Wing Chun school here. I'm wanting to learn it but I can't move (college) yet I don't want to wait years to find some instruction. Does anyone know what would be a good way for me to learn the basics somehow? (I dare not learn anything higher without proper instruction from a good teacher)
i would've love to be trained by Ip Man.

連 - lian2 - it means to link or togetherness
隨 走 - sui2zou3 - it means to walk in this fashion
I believe what this proverb means is to attack, fight or proceed in such a way that you can be close to your opponent, ie, sticky hands so that you have feeling.

Most forms of oriental martial arts are based on purely breaking, killing and disabling people, which involves all of those, kung fu in particular is NOT a cage style of fighting.

funny how people that know nothing about martial arts spew their ignorance because they started watching ufc. cut the commentary and just watch suckas :)
took wing chun for a year; I definitely think it could have its applications in a sport setting like MMA
caelitus1 2 years ago
jeez people place way too much emphasis on styles, it's about the trainer/sifu/sensei and the student. I took 2 forms of karate, wing chun, and now I'm learning jiu jitsu and muay thai. stop bitching about styles and just take the martial art that works for you and advances you whether it's boxing, wrestling, kickboxing, etc. etc.

my friend how could u have gone from a taditonal backround like karate to kung fu and start learning this modern sport wrestling brawling style? if u understood how ur stance applys and chi sao from wing chun, why would u choose thai kickboxing and "ground and pound"?

Thai Boxing is a lot better than Wing Chun tbh and thai fighters with speed can easily overpower wingchun fighters

wing chun is not fighting
it is WAR!!
weichiveli 2 years ago 2
thai boxing is a sport, wing chun a selfdefence.. you dont train to fight against real hardcore thaiboxers, you train it to fight against a common atacker on the street. And also make a difference between al the kinds of wing chun out there in the world.. they became to different so you can't talk about wing chun in one content anymore.. Some wing chun arts suck.. but some are extremly dangerous (and not popular: vt) .. so dont underestimate something you have no clue about

xiaolintraditional90 2 years ago
Any martial art is only as good as the practitioner. People pick a style that best suits them. Wing Chun isn't for everyone.
No one style can be said to blanket defeat anyone of any other chosen style as it is entirely dependent on how well the practitioners involved have learned and apply their arts.
Gross generalisations are rarely accurate in my experience.

I agree..
Every martial art has has the same idea and good as his practitioner and must be respected.!!!

I have to agree with what your trying to say.
Most street fights end up being close slap battles of punches trying to get through, and on the ground. This was developed to get around that.
When with boxing, you have these big gloves and your limited to not being able to grab the arms and pushing. I have done boxing aswell, and Ive also tried wing chung.

A movie finally is coming out about the legendary Ip Man of Wing Chun:
Youtube:
"Ip Man/Yip Man Official Teaser Trailer with Subtitles(New Donnie Yen Film!)"
.
mmivv 3 years ago
Saw it at the cinema a few weeks ago (in China) it's actually pretty good. Another film about Yip Man is coming out too (I think Tony Leung is Yip Man in this one), but sadly the director has chosen supreme twat, sell-out and gong fu nobody (and by that I mean he knows absolutely jack shit about gong fu, but thinks he does and he's the shit) Zhou Jie Lun (Jay Chow/Zhou) to play gong fu legend Bruce Lee. I for one will be boycotting this movie. I hope the director has a VERY swift change of mind!

its a form of kung fu, designed for realistic situations i.e. for on the street.
gains power from speed, precision and technique rather than raw power like in boxing.
its like kung fu streetfighting ;)

No, actually, in Wing Chun you have to be "soft".
SerjTankian33 3 years ago 2
wing chun is known to be uncommitted. That means if a strike fails to connect, the martial artist may flow into another strike wiith ease. This can only be achieved when the body and muscles are fully relaxed during striking. This is why wing chun is known so well for chain punches.

Ingve1234 3 years ago
Let me say i respect the hard work and skills of these guys. But, i can't accept it as a good example, even if this is a training fight. What's the matter with one guy doin some punches to the head while the other guy just still stands with his arms down. Throwing some punches without any power behind - no impulse, no hips turning in, not going through the hit point. U have to choose between to express your body in fight or just try to impress non-skilled followers. I am not judging Wing Chun.
nouseforanoname 3 years ago
guys, first of all it's not a spar session, it's a demonstration ok. showing wing chun moves to people who dont know anything about them. and that's not his training partner, that's his student. this is how students learn in martial arts. if it was a vid of him and his sifu then his sifu would be demonstrating on him.
we have a lot of hip turning and follow through in Wing Chun and I'm sure sifu Evangelos would be happy to give you a friendly demonstration. this is a demo vid, not a spar vid.
bhibatsu 3 years ago 5
furthermore, you really dont know what you're talking about, talking about real fight. Sifu Evangelos has been working night security at the best clubs in Greece for many years and has been in more real fights than probably you and everybody you know combined.
Wing Chun is a real combat art, not sport. Whether anybody wants a real challenge fight, or a polite demonstration, just ask and sifu Evangelos will be happy to show you. Thx for your comments and good luck in your training.

ive notised hes a bit muscular for a wing chun practitioner, ive heard smaller muscles are better suited for the style. does it really matter or not?
superdruid999 3 years ago
There are 4 main types of muscle groups:
1)Surface muscles for speed
2)Deep muscles for strength
3)Small joint muscles for stabilization
4)Rotational muscles (wrist, neck...)
WC fire element attacks uses 1), for structure and power attacks it's 2) and 3), and for hand techniques, Tan, Bong, Huen is 3) and 4). All of WC power attacks are actually a bit of speed, but mostly deep muscle from the structure. Unlike other styles which uses muscle and kenetic energy, WC uses mostly structure.
littlepoop77 3 years ago
superdruid, yeah smaller arms are better for wing chun just because theres less resistance so you can get in there faster. alot of wing chun practitioners will work on their triceps more than biceps because it will help strength while maintaining speed.
having said that, sometimes its good to have a little heavy muscle on you so you cant get pushed around by a 400 pound sumo wrestler.
gotta find a good balance between the two.
ninjiujitsu1 3 years ago
You're right, maybe i argued a bit too generally. I noticed that this is a demonstration, but isn't better 2 demonstrate a clean and realistic technique and isn't more authentic 2 defend against an opponent - even if it's a demonstration. I don't mean 2 fight back, but please keep the hands up or at least try to cover ur head.
If you read between the lines i am talking about defending not fighting.
Thx 4 the offer: Real fights belongs to fighters on both sides, 1 fighter doesn't make a fight.
nouseforanoname 3 years ago
Again, bearing in mind that this is a demonstration video, look again at the example where he is blindfolded. I know it does look rather like the guy is just holding his arms down, (which he proably is), but in reality the instructor's arms would actually be preventing the other guy from coming up. (Though this does not mean he could not come around in a slightly long-winded manouvre, but again, this is a demo). Trust me, it really does work when you are good at it. No skill comes without effort

To the inexperienced fools, no this aint "patty cake." And also addressing to the person who says "Who starts fight touching hands." Statement like these shows your ignorance and you know little of the arts.
This practice is called Chi Sao, a drill for hand sensitivity, this is not how they fight realistically.
Through this practice, they train their mental reflex, sensitivity, and speed to deliver fast, counter-attacks, to the target in combat.

to real fighter it sounds as if you have never been involded in martial arts or perhaps have been involved in the wrong schools.I'm notsaying that all martial arts out there today are the real deal but martial arts evolved as a system to keep yourself alive feudlistic times and is the basis for all law enforcement, and military self defense systems. please do your research on this if it was all make believe then our soldiers that you reference would never survive a single hand to hand situation.
vastin01 3 years ago
Real fight is a combat between one or more individual and usually takes place in unpleasent situations and circumstances , martial arts ideas are to con people to give them a pictured confidence using certain cocky and made up fake moves so they can think that they will face a real combat situaton , NO ! a real natural combat situation needs nothing but you fearless and trained to face any circumtances like a soldier! that is the real art of dying in order to kill and not to die !

who starts a fight in the middle of a game of lets touch arms?
gizzizzle 3 years ago
Hm. I would be more impressed by him blocking every punch (without looking) if there were some variation in the attacks. They come at a constant - slow - pace and aim for same target and come along same path.
Besides, whenever he begins to strike back, his oponents transform into stationary targets making no attempts to evade his attacks.
I do not doubt that he is good, but the video does not demonstrate it IMHO.
