I don't take Wing Chun so I can't judge it. But to the Wing Chunners, what do you guys think?

Makes me to want to start Wing Chun.
I am pretty impressed, as long as those weren't choreographed and the attackers didn't attack slowly or go easy on him. |

Cool clip. Looks like wing chun employs a lot of elbowing. I didn't like the music. Classical techno? Very offensive art. I like it.

Went training with my Ju Jitsu friend today, and with this video clip in mind I asked him to try and take me to the ground, to charge at me, or simply to kick and punch me. Was great fun employing some of what I saw to get inside his guard, pummel him with punches them quickly sweep or throw him to the floor andp pummle him some more!
(With semi-contact padded mitts, of course. )
Some very interesting concepts in Wing Chun which can be quite easily incorporated into other styles. Not the moves themselves, but a lot of the theory and concepts, like controlling the centreline. |

"as long as those weren't choreographed and the attackers didn't attack slowly or go easy on him."
They were, they did.
I have the video that these clips were taken from - what you are watching is pre-arranged attacks by his own students to demonstrate the theoretical effectiveness of the art. He uses no techniques that I can see that would not be allowed in a mixed martial ats competition - let's see him do that against a Randy Couture or a Sakuraba. THEN I will be impressed.

The clip has a prearranged fight, of course. It doesn't reduce it's value by more than 20%, though.
Ironically, I find Wing Chun technique display there pretty bad. Try going to http://www.sifugrados.com and take a look at some of the free clips there. (btw, that is from the school I attend).
Tell me what you think.
Thx.

I'm taking a few a lessons in wing chun to see what it's like.. Looks pretty okay to me, I have a better idea of what it's about I think.
