  • when do you usually start learning the dummy form??

    my sifu said you learn it after you learn siu lim tao, chum kiu, and biu jee but said he wanted to start training me, and others on my level, on the first several movements of the dummy form already (we only know siu lim tao)

  • @airsoftwannabe618 : It depends on the master's style of teaching. In some schools, they will teach the dummy techniques along with the basic techniques, so you can even apply techniques you learn from Siu Nim Tao to the dummy, to feel the correct positions, angles, energy, receive feedback and condition your hands, stance ...etc...

    There is no unique true answer for your question, but I prefer to teach the dummy when my students can perform basic techniques to a reasonable level.

  • good to know all this because there are many evil trees around that can atack you

  • @einstienear This is a form or pre-arranged set of moves. However, the dummy can and should also be trained freestyle. Think of a form as an alphabet. The moves are like letters. You can use all kinds of different combinations of letters to make words. That's how you communicate. But without a solid understanding of the alphabet, you can't possible communicate. The forms give give you the foundation. From there, it's up to you to make it come alive.

  • honestly this wooden dumby is setting people up for failure when they fight

    this guy right here, would DIE if he slipped on a banana peel.

  • this isent tradition wing chun because the bui gee sections are done first it was only changed when ip man became ill and could not remb the forms properly so master wong shun leong surgested he teach the dummy backwards

  • @TanSauNg2008 Hello TansauNg2008 ! I would like to ask you who is your teacher,is it Master Benny Meng.I trained with him myself & he's really good at what he do & very informative about Wing Chun.Master Benny Meng knows me here in upstate,NY.Great video!

  • this video was ruined by the cheesy music

  • I would love to spar against someone who knew this just to see if its effective at all. I give pretty much anything besides take my dough oh im sorry i mean tae kwon dick a chance at working

  • Do you get browses on your arms while doing this?

  • maaaan, it's such a shame people waste their time on bullshit like this. LEARN ACTUAL FIGHTING DON'T GO HITTING WOODEN 'DUMMIES' YOU IDIOTS!!!

  • I guarantee if some white guy posted a video of him doing what this guy did move for move, everyone would be bashing him and disliking the hell out of the video.

  • Very nice flow and control. I love the sound of the wood and the beauty of such woodwork too. Thanks.

  • @TanSauNg2008... exactly, when i started wing chun when i was 14 i had learnt all 8 forms even before i learnt chum kiu and it helps a lot by correcting angles, stance etc it helped me understand the art and also relaxation deflection and forward momentum other than just using plain brute strength when fighting.
