After several years in Wing Chun I began to study Tai Chi. While it has enhanced my Wing Chun i would not recommend it for the beginner. Advance in one system before learning another. If the styles are close then you could have a problem separating the two and become confused. I have a very close realationship with my Sifu and cleared it through him before I began to study Tai Chi. We agreed that if any problems arose, that either one of us detected, I would drop the Tai Chi and concentrate solely on Wing chun since I maintain that as my "mother" art. One thing said it the styles compliment each other then one may make the other stronger. Although the opposite could happen I believe it is an individual thing. We ahve students who in no way shape or form could handle two arts at once, they can't even understand the one. |

A STRONG BASE in one art is a must before u learn differnt styles.
I find that Hsing Yi , Ba Gua , and Wing Chun go together better than u could ever hope. I like to do Wing Chun hands and Hsing Yi stepping it works really good. Ba Gua evasion and uprooting aslo goes good
with the othere 2 styles plus the coiling sping like power.
Don't Try this at home! |

I've often contemplating doing such a thing myself, but i'm further convinced that i should get a solid base in what i'm doing now before i intend to branch out so to speak, but then again, JKD has a lot to offer already. _________________ you scythe with it!!!!!! |

I train in JKD and a Judu/Jujitsu class. JKD is great for stand-up, and the Judu/Jujitsu class helps in takedowns and grappling. Very good combonation. |
