  • @KingR3aper: It's not like American folk wrestling, BJJ, and Muay Thai had a baby and named it MMA.

  • @KingR3aper: While it is true that many MMAists train in different styles, "Mixed Martial Arts" is just semantics. It was a phrase invented in 1995 to replace the long-used "No Holds Barred" and the pejorative "human cock-fighting". If you mix martial arts, it doesn't make you a mixed martial artists. There are a lot of jokers running around saying they've combined Muay Thai and TKD, and therefore teach MMA. MMA is a combat sport that allows for a wide range of techniques.

  • Muhammad was taking a beating actually in his fight with george foreman.

  • @rbdhack are you a wing chun guy? If so u can find different ways to "bridge the gap" like a low kick and as the guy reacts to the kick, u follow your kick into them or if you're a boxer u can wait them to jab and follow their jab into them or u can jab at certain times and follow your own jab in but there's lots of ways

  • I have a friend.. he's a boxer and a good one.

    The problem is that they don't make such mistakes to move the shoulder away so you can catch them... He's also a big guy and really there's not enough force to block he's attacks..

  • Amazing video my friend and very informative. I am a mix martial artist but for the street. I choose to combined Wing Chun and Japanese Jujitsu. Your videos are great keep them coming.

  • what happened when you nearly got in that fight?

  • damn jin continue ur story about how you guys almost got into a fight with 2 other guys! :D

  • dude your such a dumb ass. mixed martial arts is allllllllll martial arts including wing chun. all martial arts is included when your in mma. if your not trying to drop the other guy then what are you trying to do? cuz im pretty sure your dumb ass is gonna get kocked out

  • Love the sounds effects at the beginning x]

  • Tell usss !!! =D

  • is the choke a legitimate concern at 3:30 when you're controlling his wrist?

  • Another story? Starving to hear!!!

  • hi ,thanks alote for this videos ,you are a very good teacher,could you please developpe the priciple of strechin.thank you very much.

  • mentally how would you respod to such an event, what goes through your mind when you have a street guy closing the distance unexpectedtly and how do you react? anny words of wisdom?

  • Hey CB, awesome video. I love the martial arts and have practiced various forms. Fortunately I have avoided street fight after starting martial arts. Unfortunately i have a false sense of how to close the distance or react to an opponent who closes the distance on the street. When in the street, have you had experience in either closing the distance on someone, or what was your train of thought when an opponent all of a sudden closed the gap? that would throw me off guard to be honest....

  • would this work if you are fighting people who are taller then you and have more reach? i spar with a guy who is about 6'1 and im only 5'9 and his arm has quite a range. I cant seem to get close to him without him throwing a few punches before im able to get in. Im not a professional fighter but i still try to improve.

  • I am slightly over 50, learned Wing Chun b4, now staying with Karate, u make a lot of sense, sending your videos to my karate dojo facebook web, let my sifu and bros/sisters look @ them, dunno what my sensei thinks, but he is a opened minded person.

  • Jin, "Closing the Gap" is as important as "Keeping the Gap Closed"; sticking with them all the way to the end.

  • What are some other examples of applying martial arts to daily life besides discipline and principles?

  • the only difference between this guy and the other "old school" wing chun teachers, are that this guy explains the obvious whereas the older teachers, expects you to already know the little details this guy explains.

  • kunalagon.

    MMA is not martial arts? MMA stands for Mixed Martial Arts.

    He is a very good teacher, he explain the things like my Sifu never would. really nice work!

  • this is definitely a good tutor...

  • interesting idea to work on ring job, just some more wing chun techniques togather with principles, just more mechanics from wing chun and that would be an interesting quest

  • I studied Wing Chun for about 5 years and jiu jitsu and Muay Thai for about the same. Everything has merit. The best thing about WC for me was the quickness, reflexes, attributes that I developed doing it. I have definitely incorporated the concepts into my grappling game and standup game. No way I'm thinking about all that shit while I'm in the ring. But WC attributes and concepts certainly compliment BJJ and Muay Thai in my experience. I love all of them and glad I've studied them all.

  • @brotherbartlett

    If you want to kill somebody dont waist yourt time learing martial arts, buy a gun, ang get into some gang...

    MMA is not martial arts, it is a way of expresing humans hate. Guys cant fight with police, thay get into the ring to prove something to themselfs and to others...

  • I'm not sure what I wrote to offend you. But who said anything about killing anyone? Who said anything about hating anyone? All I said is that BJJ, Muay Thai and Wing Chun all have things that are worth learning. Sorry if some MMA guy hurt your feelings at some point but, dern, no need to gripe at me about it. And I doubt you really have any idea why people get into the ring. You're right, I['m sure about a lot of people but not all.

  • Thanks Jin... more great stuff from you! ;-)  Keep 'em coming.

  • right, final addon-

    Theres no such thing as MMA is better than ANY martial arts

    because its ALL in there.

    Its the ultimate demonstration of the collaboration of various martial arts around the world with jolts of each one in a fight.

    But you testosterone filled ignorant little fagtards ruin that whole experience with your idiotic fanboy faggotry.

  • it's a legit question, i don't compete anymore, i'm too old now, when i was in my prime, UFC didn't exist, MMA competitions didn't exist. that's why i did Shooto, which was as close to MMA back in the day.

    i only spar now and train and teach. but the people i spar with, i highly doubt that they will let me video tape us full sparing and then allow me to post them on youtube.

  • i'll ask them, but like i said, if i we were good friends and both had many years of experience and sparred, would YOU let me video tape us and post it?

    sparring for us is a learning experience, but for us specifically.

    but like i said, i'll ask.

  • there all effective counters so if it was used in tha ufc im pretty sure most of it would work especially with some of tha sloppyness i see

  • LOL @ MMA homosexuality!

  • There is an anti-grappling video in here. U can check it out.

  • to flipthescript

    boooooooooooooooooooooring. comments like yours i get so tired of, its not like anyone reads them anyway

  • I don't understand all this craze about MMA being the ultimate testing ground for martial arts. I'm sure Jin would do fine in a cage. Plus I'm sure there's other strategies for that type of attack in Wing Chun. Just like you don't "Double Leg" everyone all the time in MMA. It's common sense. Only block when you need to.

  • You goddamn UFC MMA guys are always like "OMG LETS SEE THAT DO THAT AND THIS DO THIS THEY WONT LAST FOR [enter time period] LONG"

    Shut up already. Thats not the point of martial arts like Wing Chun, and many others. Most of it is discipline than fighting. Not who can drop who the fastest in the octagon.

    If you can't understand that, then you are just another frat fag screaming "AUGHGHH!! YEAH!" at the T.V with beer in one hand.

    Thats right, stfu and Grow the fuck up, you fags.

  • @KingR3aper i agree with everything you're saying and i am not your typical elitist mma fan, however i do agree with people who say martial arts have evolved more in the past 15 years than it had in the past 1000 solely through mma competition. i truly believe that at this point the best discipline is a freestyle one. learn the BJJ guard, the wrestling sprawl, single and double leg, the muay thai clinch, the science of boxing and kickboxing and you have a fighter who can win at anyone's game.

  • @forbesfoofighters i like how you mixed different martial arts, but wouldnt it be better if you stuck to one? like if you did muay thai, wouldnt you want to stick to muay thai only? even if you were in a ring.

  • @cosminso1230 it would be great to excel at 1 style but even if you were a wizard at muay thai what good will it do you when you're fighting a stronger wrestler who can take you down with ease. i am fascinated with the theories of catch wrestling but as far as stand up fighting goes, i think you need at least 2 disciplines 1 being either boxing/kickboxing/karate to fight on the outside the MT clinch and of course your counter wrestling and sprawls.

  • @forbesfoofighters so you mean any art which you throw hits and you cant fight more than one opponent, and a second to be able to grapple, trap, lock, etc like jiu jitsu, or brazillian jiu jitsu, or wrestling. is that what you meant?

  • @cosminso1230 exactly! to be a great fighter you have to be able to force your style on the opponent. it isn't enough to be a good boxer or muay thai boxer because you have to be able to stay on your feet to use those skills. that is where having counter wrestling and takedown defense comes into play. if your skill is BJJ you have to be able to drag your opponent to the floor but if you cant you must learn how to out strike them and make them want to take you down.

  • @forbesfoofighters now i understand what you mean. you have to get to know how to fight while standing up, and while on the floor. thanks for the explanation.

  • Secondly, where the hell do you think "MMA" Comes from.

    MIXED

    MARTIAL

    ARTS.

    I see a lot of constant bashing from MMA fanboys. Who probably haven't even PRACTICED any type of Martial arts.

    But wow, why the F- are you trying to insult martial arts purists, when thats where MMA fucking comes from?

    MIXED. Dumbasses. MIXED. Insulting the origin of your MMA which you retardedly try to go "ITS BETTER THAN TKD, ITS BETTER THAN KUNG FU ITS BETTER THAN-" Shut, the FUCK up already.

  • @KingR3aper Agreed completely.But Internet is full of such "my dad beat your dad" dudes. Some kind of spam you know. :)

  • @KingR3aper You can never compare WIng Chun to MMA, wanna know why? Wing Chub was designed for street fighting, you go for overwhelming moves where you seriously damage your opponent such as neck shot or gouge. In MMA this isnt allowed so you cant compare a ring fighting style to a street fighting style.

  • @KingR3aper Well said my friend. Nearly every kungfu video I watch there is one of those "______ WON'T LAST A MINUTE AGAINST..... IN A MMA FIGHT" guy. Fucking annoying.

  • @KingR3aper couldn't have said it better myself. if only i can like your comment x10 =)

  • Finally -

    To insult ANY or say "MMA IS BETTER THAN--" is like saying "FUCK YOU" to your OWN fanboism.

    You're insulting yourself with your own ignorance, and fratboy faggotry.

    /endfuckingrant you MMA fanfags.

  • @fliptthescript wing chun is about deflecting not blocking. mma is a sport not intend for the streets. i love mma but i wouldn't want to find myself in a clinch when a guys buddies jump in!

  • @fliptthescript the concept of this form of martial arts is to not block, but to throw your opponent off balence or manipulate their limbs to leave them wide open. so basiclly its 25% block 75% moveing your opponent. even george st. piarre got thrown off balence, he would loose, in this style, they hit the fast, hard, and without getting hit them sleves. and power dosent matter. muhhamed ali would beat george foreman because of his speed. wat good is power if u cant hit? <.<

  • Your videos are excellent. You're great at explaining what's usually thought of as complicated. Very good material, it's helped a lot with my Wing Chun training.

  • thanks for your support and words of encouragement. peace!

  • Great selection of Videos. I want to learn wing chun to cover that mide range where dirty boxing happens. Also, I heard and believes that Wingchun concept is good for ground and pound (trapping and punching) I hope you will do a video on such if you have already explore it for such use. Thank you!

  • wing chun concepts are great for many aspects of combat and is also a road map of how to live your life. take care and peace!

  • nice wing chun very correct principles i study wing chun also visit us at delta wing chun respect

  • thanks for the kind words, i'll take a look at your site as well, peace!

  • Apologies, but I want to know the story of the 'almost' fight. Do you tell it here? :) Cheng

  • lol...yea, scroll through the comments above and you'll find it. peace!

  • thanks for these lessons I'm learning Wing Tsun for two months now and your teachings helps a lot *bow*

  • no problemo. take care and peace!

  • yeah the pak sao works try to throw the pak with full force like a punch with diagonal forwarding pressure if you do it right you'll get some nice openings to stick em with your fists.

  • ChinaBoxer, you must realize that it is much easier on your training partner to throw them with circular momentum and speed than if you let them fall off of your back slowly...

    Of course it must be done slowly to explain, but in the reps your students will do it the same as you show it, then they will have a subconscious distaste for the technique and not be as good at it as they would be otherwise.

    I really appreciate your work, keep it coming!

  • Thanks Kazmundio for your sympathy towards us students. I hate to correct you, but we all consciously have a distaste for everything Jin makes us do, but he keeps the keys to our cages in his back pocket. It's a long story, but the lesson to be learned from it is never let Jin give you a lift.

  • hahah ^^^all true by the way.

  • I don't even know what to say to that.... they have social services for that sort of thing, local agancies and counselors.

    Do you guys know of a good online video depicting slow sequential breakdowns of variations on the lat sao drill or combinations used in chi sao?

  • Yo hi again.hey how about you number your videos of what a beginner has to learn lik sil lim tao 1 then other videos...2....3....4 like that is ok if you do not like this way is just a comment haha.

  • hmm..maybe i can incorporate your idea on my future website, let me think on that. thanks for the idea, peace!

  • nice one

  • thanks!

  • glad you enjoyed it, take care and peace!

  • I also see this throw in Sanshou a lot

  • yea, sanshou fighters have some pretty nasty throws.

  • Nice Vid Jin:

    Also I know for a fact that there are guys who are wicked fast and would adjust their center of gravity instantly .Thats just from personal experience outside the ring--dealing with good/excellent streetfighters--(BUT this would work perfectly on a Shmoe). I would just imagine a trained groundfighter would have a few counters to this because i would think that the instant he gave you his back he is doomed--and would do his best to prevent that.

    Nice vid though bro.

  • Also Jin:

    I would stay away from all discussions about streetfighting. I understand that lots folks are looking up to you but I can PROMISE you that first "Street Fighting" Vid you post some punk kid is gonna try it in school on some harmless kid to try to be tough.

    Let em learn the HARD WAY.

    The rule on the street is to NEVER-E_V_E_R start a fight because these kids today are mostly armed and dangerous-(in Inner Cities across U.S and vid on You Tube will never make anyone a tough guy.

  • again, when i say "street fighting" i am not referring to the Kimbo slice going out and picking fights out on the street. no no no...what i am referring to is getting into a situation where someone attacks you outside in a more self defense situation.

  • the no holds barred Kimbo slice fights that were held out on the streets is NOT "street fighting", it is "ring fighting" without the ring. so don't take the literal meaning when i say "street fighting", you have to understand the context of what i'm trying to say. maybe i just worded it wrong or didn't explain myself properly. hope you get it now, peace!

  • I didn't think you meant it that way.

    Having said that bro--I would sincerly advise that when you DO make a "Self-Defense Vid"-that you focus more on standup. Why? The guy 75% of the time WILL have friends and they WILL jump you.

    The days of "UP-and UP" are long gone. Friends my age reminisce about the older days of the when folks respected a loss-a handshake and it was all done.

    I've had my head/eye split open by "Friends of the Loser" a few times. Ground=BAD ;o)

  • Also-as far as your explanation about the "Basics" of closing the gap-indeed if I wasn't a Wing Chun Practitioner even I would find this to be extremely useful ("I" meaning a person with 25 hard years streetfighting"). In fact youv'e revealed the centerline concept in such a succinct manner --you have earned my usual;

    "FIVE STARS!"

    PS-Please continue to integrate W/C with a ground mentality for the ring--you help me to integrate my own "Philosophy of Movement"-from a Wing Chun perspective

  • anti grappling is a must strategy for "fighting on the street". i'll get into that subject later. and yes, you do not want to go to the ground in a self defense situation. very true, you are 100% right.

    every video where i show you grappling, is for "ring fighting" and not "street fighting". we will get into anti grappling later, patience! =D

  • @chinaboxer I am middle aged, living in HK,, learned Wing Chun b4, now staying with Karate, u make a lot of sense, sending your videos to my karate dojo facebook web, let my sifu and bros/sisters look @ them, dunno what my sensei thinks, but he is a opened minded person.

  • true, but don't focus on the techniques. i only show you some "flash" for fun and to illustrate the "concept" that i'm about to talk about. don't forget i'm not into the "tic for tac" method. which means you do this, and i counter with that kinda mentality.

  • jin sifu i have a real question for you... have you ever fought in the street for real?

    if yes... where n when, what happened???

  • hiddenwingchun:

    Why is that a relevant question? This is a video about RING FIGHTING o_O.

  • true true. but don't forget that the video is really trying to convey is the concept of "closing the gap".

  • actually its about "closing the gap"

  • alot when i was younger, i had a quick temper. but as i've gotten older, i feel no need anymore to try and defend my "ego".

  • JIn, so when you mean street fighting, are you talking about self-defense? The aggressor initiates the fight and closes the gap which makes you more of a counter fighter.

  • when i say "street fighting" i'm not saying go out and actually fight outside. no no no. what i'm trying to say is that you're either going to get into a situation "out on the street" or you want to compete "in the ring".

  • and to prepare for either requires two different strategies.

    preparing for the street - your opponent will come to you, you don't have to move at all. when he attacks, he has full "intent" and "commits". this is why wing chun works in this situation very well. because that's exactly what we want from someone who attacks.

  • preparing for the ring - your opponent will not always fully "commit" or attack with "intent". this is because in the ring, it has alot to do with setting up and baiting each other. because fighters know they are vulnerable when they do attack like that. so their initial jabs and kicks are used to deceive, bait, fake etc..which means that they remain balanced

  • that's why fighting in the ring, you have to learn that game, "how to close the distance" safely. which you don't have to even worry about when someone attacks you "in the street".

    so when i say "street fighting" and "ring fighting" that's what i'm talking about.

  • don't take the literal meaning, but the context in the message that i'm trying to get across.

  • ahh..i get what you're asking now "thedosman", yea, "street fighting" is a "self defense" situation.

  • jin can you make a vid on how to fight a street fighter

  • little by little, first is cover all the basics or else all the flashy stuff is pointless. that's what i've been focusing on so far.

    as the tutorials continue, you'll get a better and better understanding of how to "fight in the street".

  • Jin, you can't knee in the head can you when they are on the ground? also, if you have trapped his arm can't you just break it?

  • it depends on the rules, they change from venue to venue. and yes you can straight arm lock him. you can fall into an armbar, you can step over and shoulder lock or kimura. there's tons of "technique" that you can do from there, but i wanted to focus on the important part of the video which is "closing the gap". take care and peace!

  • did you get into a form a grappling yet? and i'm still waiting for you to post videos! *tap tap tap =P

  • great videos and explanations as always... thanks for the upload.

  • thanks for the comment. glad you enjoyed it. peace!

  • Jin, great explanation- it shows that you are a very open minded martial artist.

    i always enjoy your videos.

  • thanks for the kind words and your support of my videos. take care and peace!

  • I know you said you'll save the story of mike and yourself almost getting into a fight with two guys but, I'm can't wait to hear how you diffused the situation. I know the physological aspect of wing wing chun took over or else there would have been a fight. So....what did you say? What body language did you use? I'm curious about some of the physcological or fight prevention tactics! Maybe a good idea for a soon to come video. "How to diffuse a fight before it starts"

  • ah..nice suggestion for a video. hmm..let me think on that. look through my replies above and you will find the story of what happened. i think you'll like it.

  • Your the best on Youtube

  • thanks for your words of encouragement! peace.

  • actually the thing i said is i dont like wing chun guys to be on rings... and you just said to me another way of them to fight.... damn dude...

  • "Mike and I got in a fight with these two guys...that was actually funny!"

    Now THAT's something I'd like to see ;)

    All joking aside, fantastic video as usual, great explanations and a thoughtful view on distance fighting.

    Keep up the amazing work, Jin. We're loving it!

  • now you sound like Mike..haha. i'm glad you're enjoying the videos and hope they help you on your martial arts journey. peace!

  • good advice.

  • very true, it also has many similar concepts and principles as wing chun. learning too fall is definitely something you learn to appreciate as you get older. nice advice!

  • i know your tired of hearing these two words from us your fans but we all have nothing to say but to Thank You Sifu Jin!:)

  • i balance it by saying four words, that you guys are probably sick of hearing from me...take care and peace! =D lol..seriously, it's the honest, sincerity of everyone's support here that keeps me going!

  • jin, i should say cheers from my trainigspartner. he likes adding the judo-roll ;) he (brown belt judo) always beats me on the ground...

  • judo throws can be nasty!

  • also dont encourage wing chun people to fight in the ring jin... thats not good haha

  • no no no..i want them to fight in the ring, but i want them to be prepared and have the skill set to be able to handle themselves in the ring. =D

  • It's awesome if someone make the movie like you,,and you're in youtube to explain things and all that,that is really amazing in learning things online. =)

  • thanks for the compliment! =D

  • you know it is soppused to not make people want to fight ..... especially on wing chun... what a teacher are you>?heheeehehe

  • "don't follow in the footsteps of the old masters, but seek what they sought." - one of my favorite quotes on martial arts.

  • This is an interesting video. I come from a JKD background, actually under a Jerry Poteet instructor, and we always emphasized interception at the earliest possible moment. I guess in the ring you have a bit more time to be patient, but in your experience do you think that something like Lin Sil Die Dar would also work in competition? Watching MMA and such I see a lot of missed opportunities to just hit, but then again, I don't fight in MMA. :)

  • Jerry Poteet teaches street fighting not ring fighting. what you have to understand is that when someone attacks you "in the street", they have intent and commit. that's why "intercepting" at the earliest moment works. but in the ring, they set up and bait you with all kinds of deception which is why you can't "intercept" at the earliest possible moment.

  • lol...i like you mofotox and i really do think you are a fan or else you wouldn't continue to watch all my videos. this question is valid so i will answer it. I am trying to develop a martial arts method that is done through a "single point of view". the reason i don't "lunch" at him is because i'm not hungry? lol..i'm kidding

  • My bad, bad spell check =) The feeling is mutual. I like you because you are not afraid of and being defensive to criticism. Most people on Youtube would have blocked me by now. I may not necessary a fan of yours because I bash everyone and u r not da one I bash da most. Read my channel, I just like to give the Wing Crap people a hard time. Cheers =)

  • you are very disrespectful and obviously have little to no knowledge about what you are talking about. What he was doing was merely blocking and trapping the hand and striking at the same time. BIG FRIKKIN DEAL.

  • hmm, people on youtube are really like to comment on trivial matters. doesn't matter he screaming or moaning bla2. just watch what he trying to tell you.

  • y do ppl always make those fuckin sh sh sh sh sounds when fightig?its retarded

  • Its a way of maintain your breathing when you strike, try it out. People wouldnt do it if it didnt work.

  • 2 main reasons, it stops you breathing in while attacking which leaves u open to being winded which is essentialy the end of the fight. It also helps you excert your energy while striking

  • it was ironic :D 'cause i make sch sch sch louds too... i like em, and they are good for breathing

  • also this thing is also good for tkd practisioners same aspect

  • the only thing the onlyyyyyy thing i am dissapointed by you jin is... dont you have your scream>>?? i dont really like that shh shh shhh shhh shh .... anyway that not means you are a pro... but you know everyone tries to make one its an true expression of you

  • yeah we wanna jin hear scream ;D

  • i hope that was not ironic brother

  • never the less i wanna jin here doing the bruce sounds haha :) thats not ironic now

  • you see thats the problem i want to hear jin expresses hiself i want to hear his tru expression sound/voice/scream not an imitation of bruce lee.. but a mimic video would be fun..hehe

  • the short exhales are very important, because it tightens your "core" which gives you more power and it removes air from your lungs in case you get hit.

  • cmon jin short exhales??? i mean i do the same thing this exhale does by my screech but it just sounds differ.... i am dissapointed.........

  • short exhales is a breathing technique that pretty much every expert that fights or trains for self defense uses. It's easier to remember to breath on each movement, than to try and time your natural in and out breathing with your movements (which is much, much harder).

  • the problem is that i am not saying not do exhales i am saying having a scream a taekwondo one that not only does the same things like exhale but even express yourself

  • yea, i get what you're asking. many years ago, i used to train Shito Ryu under Fumio Demura and developing "spiritual power" through a shout was an important part of the training. if you youtube him, you'll see what i mean, he's got a wicked "heeya"!

  • i developed a really good "heeya" and it would scare my opponents when we sparred back then. maybe i can include it in the next video, just for you. we'll see. =D

  • i like it because you just showing really showing yourself into the opponent thats what he is afraid of.. thank you for understanding my position on the theme jin..

  • i saw his exhibition right now that master has life inside of him i can sense it .. respect nic shout indeed heya style

  • yea, he's such a great person too. you would be very surprised at how similar okinawan karate is to wing chun. hmm..i'll make a video on the subject in the future. i think everyone who studies a traditional martial art such as karate, tae kwon do etc..will really enjoy it.

  • i am interested i see your history is martial arts is so big i mean how old are you m8>>>?? 55? cause you look like 30 to me

    hahaha

  • i've been studying martial arts for so long it seems. going back and watching Fumio Demura makes me want to go and train with him again. i'm getting close to 40. time flies when you're having fun! =D

  • you have to be kiding me you?? 40 years old? hahahaha dude just look into the mirror

  • HOLY CRAP! 40?! I don't believe it. You've got to be 25, oldest. :D Seriously, though, that fact inspires me to do more training.

  • dont forget i want to hear the wicked kia shout next video....

  • he jin, i see sometime you get into a jkd-stance. personally for the ring i prefer the jkd-footwork/hopping because of its flexibility. the wc stance is to static in the ring, just my opinion (based on my loses in sparring with skilled boxers/kickboxers). what are you thinking about?

    may be in future, if you find the time, you could make a drill for more fexibele footwork, i liked your pertner drill, in which on must hit the others shoulders very much ;)

  • more footwork drills are coming soon which will include Jun Fan JKD footwork for "distance fighting".

  • I saw that throw in one of Hawkins Cheung's videos.

    watch?v=cyyIbYGKjXM

  • ah..nice! here's another video of Hawkins back in the day doing tai chi...

    watch?v=q0TEAqj-O20

  • Yeah I like them push hand takedowns

  • Hey Jin, was that Tan sao then pak sao or was it the other way around ?

  • at 7:19 that was a pak to biu jee.

  • Jin, what happened with those 2 guys?

  • Jon has been sick and Bryan is working on a film project. they'll be back soon!

  • What about the other two guys?? Tell us that story soon lol.

    This is an interesting and fun concept. I've been wondering how to stick to my opponent if he were a boxer or a fighter who retracts his hands after a jab.

  • lol..it really was a non event. but okay..i know everyone wants to know so here it goes...

    Mike and I went to Beverly Hills to grab lunch. we pull into a parking structure an SUV was in front of us also looking for parking.

  • lucky for us, a girl friend of mine was pulling out and she let us take her spot. the SUV had already passed her. so we took the spot. but the two guys in the SUV (australians if i remember correctly =D) tried to back up and steal the spot.

  • my friend ended up blocking him and we parked. they got mad but just a bit farther down they found a parking spot. Mike and I got out and the two guys came up to Mike and started giving him crap.

  • i finally got fed up and went right up to the one trying to start trouble and got nose to nose to him. and i said.."it's a beautiful day outside, we both got parking spots, why don't we just go and enjoy the day." now mind you, that
