Should Wing chun or other style of kung fu be in my bucket list?

There is no harm in visiting the club.

Wing Chun attacks and defends at the same beat (Simultaneously),

strike at the centerline,

Use kicks below the waist and hands above the waist, (Normally)

Contains 3 empty-handed forms, 1 wooden dummy form, 2 weapon forms (Although the late version of Leung Jan has no forms)

Wing Chun is Concept-based: most of its moves follows the same concepts. It's better to know most of the concepts than most of the techniques.

Young/old, tall/small, strong/weak, male/female, and even a Blind Person can all learn Wing Chun. Since Wing Chun's Chi Sau drill involves reacting with touch and feeling, a person can fight blindfolded as long as he or she has physical contact. Even a blind person can learn it. Wing Chun still uses their eyes.

If you heard of Bruce Lee's one inch punch, Wing Chun has the same principles as that since Bruce learned Wing Chun as his first martial art. Wing Chun can use short range power, their hands is like a nail, and their body is like the hammer.

So, why not? If you're curious, might as well visit to see if you like it.

How easy for a Wing Chun practitioner entering a Shotokan club?...

Here is some thing to think about:

If the group is a bunch of lower ranks it may even prove to be very unwise. If a qualified instructor philatelists these sessions you may have a better chance of being able to participate constructively in a process which everyone can learn. If it's a bunch of low level people getting together shoot'n the sh*t working out you will most likely have a problem unless you know someone in the group that is high in standing that can recommend you to present techniques to the group from another perspective.

There are 2 systems of Kung Fu that I like that I consider practical. 1) Wing Chun and 2) San Soo. If you can't find a San Soo (Chinese kickboxing) school near you, then I would say definitely enroll in a Wing Chun school. Wing Chun offers realistic trapping, punching, and kicking techniques that work in a real fight.

do you do the kata naihanchi (tekki) that that is similar to wing chun or rather many of the movements can be

this is what i posted a few months back about tekki, i have another ne i poster about tekki and ground fighting. ill have to find it

@ksnake there are over 300 styles of kung fu can you even list more then two. you still know crap about martial arts

To master wing chun you must train hard.

It is not an easy art to learn and takes time to perfect.

By all means join the club in your town but do take it seriously.

Wing Chun is really fun to learn, but it's also pretty hard, like every other martial arts. You should watch the movie Ip Man. Hopefully you'll be inspired to train.

Of course! More martial arts is better for anyone who loves martial arts in general.

But don't think learning WC will let you go 1v10. That would be foolish. It's a style, an asset. It really boils down to you.

complicated factor. look on to the search engines. just that could help!
