I must agree with jlittle. Ive only been practising wing chun for a few months, however i have studied jujitsu for several years. I seem to be able to mold certain blocks from the 2 arts (especially pressure strikes) making them both more effective. They seem to be a very interesting combination (from what ive seen so far) as they both have strengths in extreme close quarters (or my styel of jujitsu does hehe).

You are right sir, they have a lot of in common

Wow, that was an interesting video. Whether I agree or not with his techniques, its obvious he developed them from his own personal fighting experience and not from some video tape. What he does seems to work well for his body type and conditioning. Either way, it gives other practitioners a lot to think about, which is the point, right?

He trained WC with Moyat. His core MA is Goju-Ryu, so while studying in NYC he was the one called to spar "challengers" because of his experience. Point being, WC takes a long time to become proficient so it's not enough by itself against a real, random threat. But it has legitimate applications and practices that can really enhance a fighter's skill. Yes, practitioners of WC need to step outside the box and practitioners of other MA that laugh at WC need to look into its intricacies.

when playing with dummy, use pressure evrytime you touch the dummy- Tap- don't be rush, power comes from abdominal.

Videos such as this one gives wing chun a bad name. Technique is sloppy, no application of wing chun theory to the stance, the chi sao has no practical attitude at all. It's like wing chun designed specifically to fight another lazy wing chun fighter.

Another fat couch potato who thinks he knows everything. Please don't breed. Anyone else remember when only smart people were on the internet?

From the wooden dummy it looks like he sticks well, but his blocks are very Goju/shotokan. Really strange stance with the hunch back, but i guess it works for him. His sticky is at a range that is outside of a MT clinch and hence also out of WC punch range. His use of that strange long distance sticky to get kicks in is interesting, but in a fight people dont stick at long range... its not ballroom dancing. I really don't know what to make of it, was very entertaining though.
