Effect of the Wing Chun Punch with Xingyi principles

* [ Please read comments ] Pardon for the sound, this is NOT meant to be an instructional video. It is meant for students of Ursa Major sited in different parts of the world. (This video was taken at the age of 35 under medical conditions. For some who had wrote in on the misconstrual that the subject to look too young for his age, it's the effects of taiji. Taiji youth preservation has been well known. For more information, you may wish to write in. Ursa Major will be glad to share non-combat learnings, esp. if you could help in aggregating the knowledge.) While it may be misconceived that the Wing Chun strike is merely a push - it's plain logic that pushing does not produce a loud impact.

For another demonstrative effect, you may also wish to view:

There has also been much discussions on the difference of the common boxing and Wing Chun/ Xingyi principles. They are rather repetitive, please view the past comments. Ursa Major does not charge for any lessons, however no instructions will be given as lessons are only taught to students with attested character.

* The method and stance have been modified with Xingyi principles to adapt to personal injuries. The original Wing Chun uses the goat stance and shoulders locked down.

[Effects of Wing Chun Strike Mechanics Verses Resultant of Common Punch] Just a light demonstration on the different effects of a common punch vs the one from Wing Chun.

Martial arts should not be the means for the ego to exploit and exhibit inordinate power, but for the mind to understand that nature of power to tame that wilful mind and redirect it for the noble use of excelling his spirit in the service of all mankind. - Ursa Major

Good Punch... i believe you could do it better if your back is Straighten up. don't bow, it wil reduce the Chi power. Greetings from Wing Chun Lover! @elfrania who is your sifu?

[Elfrania]

Hi @TheAstoria88, for the reason of my injury, I have to adjust to avoid the forces from passing through parts of my body, and indeed, the power is lessen because of that. It's just to demonstrate the difference even under a disadvantageous situation. I have several shifu(s), some of them wish to remain anonymous, as they do not want to be known as part of the martial society.

[TheAstoria88]

@Elfrania well, it was just a suggestion as a wingchun lover, coz i believe no matter how great we are, we still need suggestion. hehe! nice to know you though! i am from SamKwok Lineage, and greetings from Wing Chun Lover :)

Thank you @TheAstoria88. Please do send me your thoughts. I am looking and gathering for ideas. We can discuss more via inbox.

It looks like the punching is done almost entirely with the body and the fist being only the point of contact.

[Elfrania]

@PHANTOMZ0NE Excellent. You got 1 of the main parts. The principle is to "speak to the body" to pack that power behind that punch. We load the body mass, and the difficulty is in delivering it only at the point of contact. The inertia returns as a back propulsion. I am discussing with my students if the return reaction may cause certain injuries to the body. This is especially a consideration for aging people.

Martial Benevolence is a movement to influence the central value of martial arts - justice.Everyone who believes in bringing better persons to this world should focus on intellectual and humanitarian concerns to solve real world problems. Every martial artists should refine themselves and others in making an egoless and caring society. We make people stronger, faster, smarter and - kinder.This is the martial justice we must uphold.Ego is poison.Pride is pollution.They are the cancer to humanity.

Guy in the video looks young as hell. Probably 30 years old.

@Elfrania I cannot make any thoughts if you are not making more video, and also, i am still practicing a.k.a beginner, just becoz i always ask suggestion from sihung Samuel Kwok, so that i know the basic principles.,but,, anyway, let me know if you need something! :),

@Elfrania u need to get rid of the media then, but thats not gona happen

[Elfrania]

@griqs Let's discuss this gradually. I was in States, and had taught at no charge. My only request is for students to study hard and make themselves excellent people to succeed in life, and reform humanity from its current backward state. My school teaches beyond simplistic combat, it makes anyone, faster, stronger, smarter and, most importantly, kinder. There are a lot of work to in my classes, and they are not merely physically training, you have to be prepared for that.
