Dummy measurements are surprisingly style dependent. Our style uses a higher arm position. The different preference shows up in interesting ways when touching hands with WC practioners.

Low is better ....
@GaryLamWingChunKungFu3 ай бұрын

@ehisey3 ай бұрын
@rumsbums3113 Given the option between too low or too high, too high is more useful as you rarely deal with agressors who are noticably shorter. I see among dummy users with too low arms a tendency to train the bong sau lower as the arm is lower, which opens the head more. Dummies are very good at building muscle memory, so bad habits there become bad habits in sparring/fighting. But too far either way is not going to be good.

i think the preference is a kind of 'neutral' height for wc, as that's fully defensive for middle and lower and high (middle can raise, or lower, to match the different attacks, but if you're always high then the lower targets open up and hard to defend and vice versa. It's evident as chain punching should be neutral and raise up to hit a head target, not start high and just stay high to go in. Much better to punch his jaw than his forehead (break your fingers). @@ehisey

Thankyou for sharing your knowledge 🙏 it's very helpful for the understanding of what it was originally designed for. I remember being taught in the early years of my training that the wall mounted Wooden Man was called a "Live" Dummy and the Wooden Man on the floor referred to, as a "Dead" Dummy. But as you explained in the clip, that the Wall mounted dummy is "Active" makes better sense as it sounds more functional as a training aid

Thank you Sifu Gary - really useful information. Though me being a small girl, most of the dummy are set to bigger people,.so not sure how to get around that? Look forward to meeting you in Warrington soon 🤜🫷

Thank you for your kind words. Regarding the wooden dummy, you can practice the wooden dummy form without using the dummy. Just remember to fully extend your punches and kicks, which you can't do when you're working on the dummy. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the seminar.

no, not really. There's a lot of attributes not being discussed or demo'd here, which are necessary. It's very important to lightly spar with mma / boxers to reveal one's weaknesses and while not getting concussions.

ah yes, because shaolin punches dont come back, theyre metal, but wing chun punches rebound in a nice reloading way. A dummy that is metal and that doesnt rebound is good too, has a different chi gong value.

Now I know that. But how about the BACK FIST? 4:44 right. Don’t chase hands. Or hit the dummy. Chopping arms. Face and focus on the target. 😉👍💡💯7:09 that was absolutely awesome. Seriously. 😎💯
