Developing Body Structure

Jin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 15:59:26 +0000

Today’s lesson is a very important one, it is filled with alot of “keys” to help you unlock your own doors of understanding. It deals with how to develop body structure as well as how to handle a person’s whole body pressure. Very few wing chun practitioners in the world practice this way, and outside of Hawkins Cheung, i’ve never met another instructor who teaches this method of training. Hopefully you are starting to understand that chi sau is done with the “body” and not with the arms. keep practicing!

Cross Side Control

Sean Apperson is a good friend and one of my grappling instructors. He is also an amazing wrestler. Notice how he “sticks” to his partner and uses his “body structure” and hips to do all the work. See if you can find other Wing Chun concepts that he applies here in the video…

Pak and Punch Drill (part 3)

we cover some very important concepts while doing the pak and punch partner drill. also how to train the concept of “when to step” in your siu nim tau form. keep improving the quality of your movements and your form and you’ll find yourself really understanding the foundation of wing chun and why it’s so amazing and effective.

Conquer Yourself

Conquering others is easy, conquering yourself is a lifelong journey…

The ring or cage is not the proving ground, life is the ultimate arena…

The champion is not the greatest opponent, it is yourself…

Donations

recently i had to take a two week emergency leave from my work to take care of family, everything is fine, but it has drained me financially. If you have never donated to the tutorial, now would be a great time to do so, this will help me get back on my feet so that i can continue on with the website. I also want to take this time to thank those that have donated and continue to support my efforts to teach and share with everyone around the world.

Moving Dan Chi Sau

Jin — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 05:52:33 +0000

first video in HD! yay! =D

today we take a look at how to practice Dan Chi Sau (single sticky hands) while incorporating some basic footwork. make sure to focus on the “attachment” of the arms and maintaining “forward intent”, instead of constantly losing that “sensitivity” because you are focusing on the feet.

thanks for those who have donated and continue to donate to help with the improvements and maintenance of the website. If you have benefited from the Tutorial and haven’t donated, i encourage you to do so to help so that i can continue to make improvements. keep practicing, keep growing and keep sharing because that’s what this Tutorial is all about!

New Look

Jin — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 22:12:06 +0000

as you can see, i’ve changed the look and function of the website. hopefully you will find this much easier to find videos and blogs. there’s alot left to do, i have to edit every video which is very time consuming, so getting every video up will take some time.

let me know if you find any problems with functionality. Also let me know what you think of the changes. thanks to everyone who has donated which has made this customization to the website possible, you guys rock!

Single Hand Chi Sau

Jin — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 16:30:23 +0000

today’s lesson is all about linking the two basic single hand sensitivity drills, dan chi sau and bong/lop sau. After you have a good working knowledge of these two drills, you should start flowing from one drill into the next in a seamless manner. this will teach you continuity and also prepare you for double hand chi sau drills.

don’t look at this drill as a contest between you and your partner and who can hit who. focus on always maintaining a “stalemate” position with your partner. this will help strengthen your “structure”. most of all…have fun!

Weird Naked Choke

Jin — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 00:56:03 +0000

Sean Flanery demonstrates the “weird naked choke” when you have back control, but don’t be fooled, there’s nothing weird about this move! It is one of my immediate attacks when an opponent defends his neck with his hands making it hard to clinch the choke..and yes, Steve was the “red power ranger” from the hit series!

Mount Choke

Jin — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 00:46:12 +0000

You might remember Sean Patrick Flanery from “The Young Indiana Jones”, “Powder”, or “Boodock Saints” and soon to be “Saw VII” coming to theaters soon. But i know him as the owner and Black Belt of Hollywood Brazilian Jujitsu (HBJJ). He is a phenomenal grappler and a great instructor.

We often talk about martial arts and what’s amazing is that he also believes in the same core concepts as i do, he also practices the “old man’s method” into his grapping skills, which is why we have so much in common.

Today he goes over a choke from the mount position, which is sometimes called a “fist choke”. it’s a great move that can also be used to setup other submissions such as the armbar which he will demonstrate.
