  • 詠春=剛柔並濟

  • 剛 = steel

    柔 = soft, gentle

    並 = together, simultaneously,

    濟 = applied, used, help, support, reinforce

    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.

  • 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...

  • @CaiRemnant Man, i hope that, this will help me too!!

  • i would've love to be trained by Ip Man.

  • 甩手直衝

    來留去送

  • @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.

  • 1:00 What if I attack without hand contact? Then, he is really a blind man. Oh, by the way:: I've also legs :-)

  • 詠春 = 剛柔並濟 => Wing Chun = hardness with softness

    tnx google translate ^^

    谢谢你谷歌翻译

  • 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.

  • @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"

  • @cellarjudge I can try to give an explanation:

    沾 - zhan1 - it means to moisten or stick to

    粘 - nian2 - it means to stick to

    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.

  • 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!
