The Key to Effective Kicks - Wing Chun, Kung Fu Report - Adam Chan

- Wing Chun kicks look boring, but when done correctly, they are very effective.
Part of the reason is because there's great emphasis on not telegraphing your kick.
What good is speed and power if you telegraph your kick? All the speed and power in the world is no good if you don't touch the target.
Don't move your shoulders, don't make facial expressions, don't turn your tips.
As always, go slow, train safely, work on your non-telegraphing skills.

Adam I always love your content. You explain in a few moments what it took me years to find out else where. Another great video!
Amen!
Nice, I love how he said, referring to kicking, it is not pretty. Fighting never is.
This is so good! I like how Adam explains why such kicks are effective; especially surrounding the necessity of keeping specific joints immobile.
your one of the better kung fu guys out there keep up the awesome tutoriols great video
You help me learn and understand Wing Chun so well Master Chan! love all your Wing Chun vids! You are tremendously skilled! You and Master Wong are my favorite practitioners of Wing Chun to watch on youtube at the moment haha thank you so much for the informative and great videos!
I want to say that Wing Chun does work for self-defense and street fighting it is effective people talk and say what they want Wing Chun does work
I agree as its very effective in close rang situations.
it can certainly work there are limits too wing chun but there are some things I certainly take from it
you can give away a lot of physicality to an opponent with wing chun but it is limited..
@Aidan Fisher Wing chun is simply the principles centerline, keeping your elbows in, and...that's it probably. A lot of the other principles are also found in many other martial arts. Body connectivity, circles, using body mechanics to use less effort, fluid motions, and so on. You can apply these to all martial activities, no?
@Aidan Fisher I saw a video of Cheung when getting attacked by Boztepe. Even on the ground, Cheung kept his Yin pretty well and Boztepe could not get a punch through, even though he was kneeling on top of him. Better to resolve issues with a minimum amount of violence and instead help each other out. That is the idea behind martial art, right? To better our health or position or whatever. Helping each other accomplishes that way better than violence.
Awesome. Great information and instruction.
Wow I love this video I’ve been doing chum kiu for a while and my kicks aren’t very good this helps my thinking and is very encouraging
i like your Ideas. THank you.
Great video Sifu Chan 🐉
That was a very good video ... Invisible kicks are used more that you think in MMA if you look for them ... I just know them from Kung fu especially wing Chun.
That was a GREAT video and you should be proud I hope that we could see it in combat use though or anything similar because those are sensitivity drills.
Sensitivity drills especially in wimg Chun are not combat ...
I really like this video.👍👍👍
Listening to the instructor made me realize even more just how fast Bruce Lee must have truly been, because the kicks that the master showed that telegraphed were the kicks Bruce Lee used, but they weren't telegraphed, which means that he had either perfect timing or he was extremely, extremely fast.
always helpful ~ thanks
Always a treat in stall 🙏😉
Really love these videos. It would be amazing to see an exhibition match of wing chun vs. Kick boxing. I think it would be great to promote both sports being as how they are both very effective defensive and offensive.
Most people (like me) like POWER. So they practice Muay Thai or JKD and they expect to stand strong and invincible in a fight and deliver crushing blows. What they have left out is what boxers have known and Wing Chun knows is that if you want to hit your opponent hard then you have to follow your jab to get close to him. As you showed with the kicks that weren't telegraphed, they distract an opponent for a second but that is long enough for you to follow up with the power shots. Even Conor McGregor said, "Precision beats power and timing beats speed." When Conor was at his best, he was deadly and beat the toughest guys in MMA. Always practice your combinations.
I'll readily admit I have no real expertise in any martial art (maybe I should stop right there ...), but , based on my experience in muay thai, a "structurally slow", "telegraphed" kick with enough training to commit the movements to muscle memory can be fast enough to hit the average person before they can move (whether to block or retreat). Before muay thai I tryed to kick like Bruce Lee or Bill Wallace, nearest weapon to the nearest target, that kind of thing, but after muay thai I realized that even big movements off the rear leg, with an initial step to one side can become both powerful & fast.
That being said, I do appreciate Adam's reasoning & explanations, there are definitely different techniques & approaches that can be effective in their own ways. Speaking of leg techniques in Wing Chun, Adam, how common or uncommon is the practice of chi gerk in Wing Chun? Am I correct in thinking most Wing Chun schools don't practice it at all?
Very good 👍👍👍
All arts work when they are performed at the right place and right time just as all arts have their weaknesses. That's why practicing different arts is important. There is no one superior art that is better than all other arts plain and simple.
This guy is a superb instructor with blinding fucking speed. Everything is a blur.
Weight on the standing foot is for controlling distance, weight on the kicking foot is for closing distance. A single strike can be multi functional, there is no correct weight distribution - just form fulfilling function.
I think WC is genius system. Would you explain the fist and head punches. Bare knuckles boxing often has a lot of hand damage?
It's not just the leg lifting... The kick is a deem gerk and even though there is no chamber, the entire leg is engaged including the quadriceps which are the main source of power leading up and out knee/toes at 45 degrees and out to the heal with a relaxed snap ball of foot pulled back.
¿Pueden subtitular los videos en español? ¡Gracias!
Holy shiet you’re based in van? I might join....Watched the Ip Man series and I love the economical movements of Wing Chun
YES
The key to power is inner energy, nothing magical, but just doing things differently. We seek the best ways to kick and punch. Like you always say, it's different for different people. Long arms, short arms, muscular build, skinny, etc etc. There is energy inside of us that can be used by doing things differently. Qi gong is becoming so popular. Why? Another trend? Or is there really inner power that can be used by doing things differently than we are used to. Every martial art has its own stuff. Bruce Lee had the right idea. If he was still alive he would be talking about qi gong among other things. You make fantastic videos because they are not full of bull. You get to the point. Isn't that what you want in a martial arts video?
1:40 2:30 2:41
Where is the balance? Cause when you don't move shoulders and body to hide kick, the power will be low. And when you do move, you get power, but the enemy will detect the beginning of strike. Two different ways, which of them is more effective?
Think of the kicks that aren't telegraphed by shoulder movement like a jab in boxing. It distracts your opponent and moves him out of position. Or, more accurately, it moves him INTO position for you to follow up with the power shots.
How to defeat wreslers and grapplers with wing chun adam?
First and foremost, is to never telegraph your intentions.
..did adam chan even once say he was teaching his students skills to be used in 5 minute rounds,in a locked cage with lots of space,against a trained opponent,with no outside interference,and no threat of weapons?or would these kicks
and blocks be useful in a crowded space,like a bar,with someone rushing at me,trying to take my head off with a bottle or something else?c'mon,guys..we all know nobody stands a chance against an mma fighter..but if i ever came up against a mugger or a burglar,what are the chances that they would also be a ufc fighter?
Very true. Never hold back against a person on the street who knows mma, because as they say, they are deadly. You should fight as if your life depended on it, meaning you should not hesitate to use weapons. Especially, if they are the aggressor. Sadly this is the world that has been created by mma now. You don’t know who knows mma on the street now. I personally study Ameridote and the other MMA (Mexican Martial Arts) but I’m just a white belt / beginner.
I master I want to learn wing chun and join in online training
In the comment section who are questioning about its effectiveness,
please try the demonstrations instructed in the video with any of your partner and then instruct your partner to go full cage fight mode against you (who is on the defending side following wing chun principles).
Test the art by yourself if felt unsatisfied with the result, drop it.
Thank You.
🙏
You do realize most people don’t even have the work ethic or dedication to complete a marathon for fun or even attempt to run on a regular basis… Most people won’t commit to a martial art even if you could magically make an unbeatable martial art and give them free lessons…
MMA is deadly. And nowadays you don’t know who knows MMA on the street. If you encounter an MMA fighter on the street who is the aggressor, make sure to not hold back. Use weapons and whatever it takes to get back home alive. If you hold back on the use of force you’re sadly mistaken, as this person comments, they do not hold back either. This is the sad but real reality really (not fake) real reality that MMA has created and proven time and time again which we face out there today now boys.
Why traditional martial arts have a softer side to it is beyond me. Practicality is all that matters. 🤪
@@nellyfabulous MMA is the most productive form of combat system that exists. One of the reasons for it to be that way is also the fact that is being tested by an enormous level as well as in numbers.
But, as far I can see, I doubt that any aggressor on the street would be having any background in MMA. Most likely not. The reason is simple. Training is hard. Efforts need to be routinely maintained. And lets not forget injuries from sparring someone. I cannot guarantee that there won't be any cases of street threats from an individual who goes through aforementioned activities. On the other hand, the individual who does practices the activities understands that involving in any kind of fight can be harmful for their own well being. There are no gloves to limit damages. The ground isn't that soft to joke about either.
I would bet all my money on the roadwork I do if I ever encounter a threat on the street. 😅
Actually, Ameridote would probably fair better on the street than MMA, that’s a known fact. Go look it up if you don’t know what it is. That said, MMA is more prolific than you say simply because it’s all over the media and you can consume instruction videos on it all over UA-cam. One can never know who on the street knows how to fight nowadays (look up Blackie Chan who won quite a few matches early on just by watching UA-cam videos). What you are actually describing is true in the sense that most people who join an MMA gym (and who’s done nothing else) doesn’t come out becoming a pro fighter by magic. In fact they would probably lose to a pro MMA fighter like any other Traditional MA hobbyists would under MMA rules. In fact Traditional Martial Artists from Karate (Lyoyo Machita) to Kungfu / Sanda (Cung Le) have faired pretty well in MMA matches in the past. So it all comes back to the individual, and on the street I wouldn’t bet on anything personally. Unless of course that person learned Ameridote.
Verlos es como ir al circo .
A weighted kick is only one of wc kicks application I don't know whether Adam is just say'n that cause it's a beginners class or he doesn't know d other types??
real kung fu
Harassment kicks are so sneaky 🦵📉
Donnie Yen was raised doing Hing I among other things in Hsing I you step on your kicks nice observation stomp the leg in self defense
if you look at professionals and see them load up and kick the opponent. you see they get them if the timing is good and they put strike before the kick. the strike is cover to hit the opponent full power. so watching this video and you talk about you wouldnt get them is not real talk. And i know you know cuz i see you do have real skill. I dont believe in preaching and teaching non telegraphic strikes cuz if you put it in a combo the second punch is mostly non telegraphic. I believe in good form, in mobility instead of stifness. Remember Bruce talking about it in Game of Death comparing himself and the opponent to tree and its stiffness. I do believe there is a time for wing chun in a fight but always done in good form, mobility and good timing. If you wanna kick the guy just kick the guy with good form instead of comparing loading up ( thai) kicks, speed ( karate ) or that step kick. As i see you good easily get hit with a right straight. No pak sao would counter that.
@Where's Walshy thats not the discussion
@Where's Walshy you just want air time for your boring podcast. I say you are missing the point.
ลองกับมวยไทยไหม
AND CHI GERK????? 🤔
lol
wing chun is only effected against a wooden dummy or slap fighting
🤔😉😉Шарлотаны??Или юмор это.?
Yes, wing chun kicks are "ugly" 🤣
Good bye knee 🎶🎶
Also Wing Chun vs. Jeet Kune Do which wins I would say that Jeet Kune Do egg cells where Wing Chun does not
Wing chun is in jkd it the basis literally jkd is wing chun that cover long range close and mid range
It's really on the person honestly. Just because you train wing chun doesn't mean you can't grapple, throw head kicks or use boxing techniques.
@@TheChocolateChamp Also Wing Chun is a hybrid art, a mix from grappling and striking, you can adapt it to your need. As long as you apply the principles it is Wing Chun
@Aidan Fisher the gracies are fiction and myth. Helio and carlos jumped people they lost to outside their hotel and went to jail and all gracies lost to sakaruba where was their precious bjj when faced against sakaruba?
@Aidan Fisher your making all sorts of excuses for the gracies and explain to me how jumping a person outside of their hotel after they beat you is an extracurricular activity or honarable at all? Sakuruba lost to ALOT of people he wasn't some ultimate fighter watch the video of him destroying gracies, he did it effortlessly theres nothing to analyze. Where was their precious bjj that beats larger opponents? He beat all 4 of the gracies big and small. Those fights in japan didnt have rules rigged for them "superfoot" wallace says the same thing. Gracie BJJ don't work on the streets only in the ring with the rules of get on the matt get on the floor from the jump that they came up with. Myth gracie challenge beat all, Reality they lost to many and afterwards jumped people they lost to. Welcome to reality.
Can someone post a real fight, wing chun vs anything. Let's see it in action. In a real fight people throw punches not these wierd slaps ...
One system is never meant to be used in a real fight solely. It teaches only aspects that another system might not teach. Judo teaches throws, Wing Chun teaches close quarter fighting, Tai Chi teaches the fine and inner mechanics of the body.
Bruce Lee won many fights with Wing Chun alone, but somewhere along the way he realized that it was still not enough and that's why he developed Jeet Kune Do, essentially an MMA system.
But WHO uses in FACT this "mma system"? WHERE?
Does someone in UFC, Bellator, etc. is JKD practitioner?
The problem is see is that wing chun only teaches how to fight against people who throw these wierd little punches, but who actually fights like that??? So basically wing Chun won't work again anyone who fight a different way, kind of pointless.....
Fernando Falcon Have a look at Anderson Silva, Tony Ferguson and Jon Jones on the MMA circuit.
@@fernandofalcon3301 wing chun focuses on controlling the opponent. Keep that in mind. It looks like a primarily striking art, and to some degree it certainly is - but if you only look at it that way, and think the traps are only for an opponent that is also a striker, then you misunderstand the actual *grappling* aspect of the art. In western boxing, there is no emphasis for grappling - once you get in the clinch, the referee breaks it up. In WC, getting into the clinch can be the best part of the action.
I can't believe people still study this useless Wing Chun...what a big waste of time...so much trouble to learn this style for what? To be able to beat up old people or some drunken homeless man...because that's all what Wing chun is good for beating up untrained mostly weaker opponents! The only Sifu I kinda had respect for is Gary Lam...but even him did not manage to get his students to a level that could impress anyone...anyone who studies Wing chun will just remain a mediocre Martial Artist...oh and by the way Martial Arts are not how you learn to Fight...you learn to Fight By Fighting out there...you don't see street gangs study any Martial arts...They are street Fighting and living it!
