The spiral energy use was mentioned in our Kung Fu Report episode #191 (👉 • Can you really DEFEND ... ), and we briefly spoke about motions in circles, spirals, and curves forms, and different training of it. Today, Cris and I will get to demonstrate to you the spiral force use concept and how to apply it to your daily Wing Chun training.

Circle Power ☯️ when all circles move as one. I would love to hear Big Brother Chan's take on the importance of tan-tien breathing 🤓

I think what Adam is mostly showing is spiral force generation. For expressive force, it adds an expansive quality to motion and also a kind of hardening to the exterior of the body. In receiving it makes the opponents force diffuse more and it makes them more likely to lose their balance. Chen Taijiquan and Cheng Baguazhang strongly emphasize spiral force generation. This is in contrast with "large circle" force generation like a slap (horizontal), or a vertical hammer fist (vertical). You can add spiral force generation to almost any motion. Add in too much and the footwork and angles of your system will start to change (meaning you will have to rework the applications). Bong sau has a lot of spiral built into it, so it's application should not be impacted. Hands without a lot of obvious spiral force can have their application modified from the original if too much spiral force is added in. The most common changes are going to be the opponent being knocked back or uprooted more, or the opponent being shifted off line more.

These are fantastic points, with the circular motions they’re karate like in their motions only smaller. I’m now confused though. Because recent videos talked about the value of shock power So, do different situations call for different blocks

@TheLuconic Жыл бұрын

In the old original Okinawa Karate, the birth place of karate, it was similar to wing chun and had takedowns and tons of circular movements which was abandoned for the stylish straight punch and kicks we see today. I’m very bad at really explaining this, Jesse Enkamp is the best source of how Karate used to be. I made the connection of how old karate looks so much like wing chun. Real wing chun. Like Adams.

What Chi Kung have you found in the different Wing Chun Kuen lineages? Why is Chi Kung important in Wing Chun and what are the differences between our approach and Tai Chi Chuan Players approach?

@Simon2k17 2 жыл бұрын

The Chinese have a saying. "There can be 10,000 variations, but will never leave its core principles." It's pretty much all the same despite different movements. The vocabulary in wing chun are "sit, pull up spine, structure, relax, tuck in tail bone etc. The vocabulary in tai chi are "yin yang seperation, heaven and earth, sink the chi, song, root, relax, hang, reverse breathing, etc. Both arts have slow movements, both have pushing drills, both have standing postures, both have heavy pole forms to enhance your structure once you can feel it. In fact I'll go as far as saying that most eastern martial arts have an internal component to it. If there's slow movement in the form, it's most likely to train internal power. The destination is pretty much the same. The interpretation to get there varies from art to art. Hence wise the different forms.

Traditional bong Sou of wing Chun is inherently flawed as it puts the shoulder in a vulnerable position. Adding sing i bagua body dynamics and requirements makes it work better.

@@aidenfisher5679 you seem confused. I did not mention anything about hardening. I'm pointing out the weakness in body structure that wing Chun has in bong sau.xing yi practice can correct this because of its superior body structure. You must be in beginner stage you will understand what I'm talking about if you continue in the Chinese martial arts.

@Johnsmith-pd3uk Жыл бұрын

Depends. My physical structure had resulted in a modified version of bong sau. I can't throw a traditional bong sau without severely compromising my structure, so o don't, I've agitated it to my frame and joint mobility. It's just as effective,and doesn't negative effect my shoulder. Movements are taught the same to everyone, it would be impossible to attempt tabbing any other way. But, after being shown the basIc principle, the person needs to identify whether or not the blanket demonstration is suited for their body, then adjust accordingly. There is no such thing as one size fits all. Understanding your structure and biomechanics will help take your training and skills to another level

@@joanstone6740 sometimes. My particular bone/muscle structure impedes my ability to perform a "proper" bong sau. When I first started training, I tried very hard to achieve it without success. So I went to knowledge from a previous martial art and teacher. You learn the firm and function, then tailor it to your particular body. I will never be able to do a traditional bong sau, but the adjusted bong sau I've created to conform with my structure is extremely effective. Like I said, there is no one size fits all. Any Sifu/Sensei that tells their students that shouldn't be teaching, that type of attitude woo only result in irritation, frustration, and ineffective skill. If one seeks to cultivate skills to the highest levels they can achieve, this principle needs to be applied. Like Sifu Chan said, there's no way he could pull Chris's hands off of him because Chris is too strong. Were you to change Sifu Chan with say a power lifter or certain types of athletes, they would be able to prey Chris's hands off relatively easily. Everything on training and fighting is dependant on both persons physical attributes and limitations, not just training.

Great in theory, but doesn't work in real world. Even a mere Club Level Western Boxer would have you eating jabs like it was religion. The stuff being shown is what happens when there is a complete lack of hard contact, non-cooperative sparring on a regular basis. Theoretical fantasy becomes the norm.

@1mataleo1 Ай бұрын

This is why I am so glad that I spent a few years as a competitive boxer before branching off into other martial arts with the goal of becoming a more versatile fighter (for self defense purposes). It makes it very easy for me to weed out the bullshit that would never work against someone trying to take your head off. Even experiencing a few real street fights or self defense situations should make people have a more realistic approach to self defense training, yet KZfaq seems to be littered with people teaching others how to essentially get themselves killed. I just don’t get it. I always thought that fights were a normal part of growing up, but evidently this isn’t the case for a majority of people 🧐 🧐 🤨 🤷
