Wing Chun Training - Making A Fist

Wing Chun Training

Hello everyone! This is a video response to Sifu Zeigler's friends video on how to make a fist properly. After viewing the video I thought of a couple things I would like to add.

Looking back to my own experiences with showing people how to make a fist highlights a few key things that are important to remember.

1. Keep those fingernails trimmed short, and dont wear any jewlery. Aside from the obvious danger of hurting a fellow classmate - long fingernails or rings will interfere with making a proper fist. Compress your hand into a fist with long nails and you will end up cutting the palm of your hand.

2. Another common mistake I see is people not holding their fingers square. Your fist should be nice and flat across the top.

3. Last but not least - and this doesnt concern the hand so mutch... The wrist must be held straight with the wrist. Never crook your hand at an angle.

Thanks for viewing my video response - look forward to providing more! Have a great day and train hard!

Girls, this is one of the reasons you need to cut your nails. I know it is difficult for some of you to do, but it is a must for Wing Chun training. Besides cutting or scratching someone, you will also injure yourself. Making a fist with long nails and punching hurts like hell.
