Minimum Use of Brute Strength

View on YouTube

Wing Chun allows you to overcome physically larger and stronger opponents through its non-reliance on brute strength. Through training, you learn to 'let go' and maximise both the mass and acceleration in your movements, enabling you to generate greater speed and power than through strength alone.

Wing Chun's emphasis on deflection and redirection over hard blocking also allows you to neutralise the strikes of someone much stronger than yourself effectively.

Len uses a double Bong Sau to redirect his first attacker's stab before knocking him down with a palm strike and hook kick. Against his second attacker, he applies a Chit Sau with the support of his body to neutralise the stab, which he follows up with a latch and knee strike.

In a real-life attack, your attacker is likely to be physically larger or stronger than you. No matter what style of self-defence you use, if you rely on physical strength, a stronger attacker will almost always win.

Our unique Wing Chun system will teach you how to use efficient biomechanics to defend yourself against larger, stronger opponents.
