(rapid volley of punches)
- So there you go,
that's the basic Wing Chun drill.
Today, I'm gonna show you Wing Chun for beginners.
How do you do the low block,
which is the Guan Sao,
again, a lot of people get it wrong.
Today, I'm gonna show you the right way of doing it.
(Robust techno music)
So the last three episodes, I shown you how to do
the Tan Sao, the Bong Sao.
Those are the upper angle attack.
What if someone hit you with an uppercut,
something like low attack, what do you do?
You would do from the, everything that we do,
is comes from the basic form Siu Lim Tau "Little Idea."
So you know, from here,
Is this, is this motion
now, again from the center line,
here's what you don't wanna do,
it is not a, it is not a chopping motion
it's not like this, it's not the Karate block,
nothing wrong with the Karate block,
I'm just talking about Wing Chun,
so I'm here, I'm here.
Because in Wing Chun, we always believe in,
economy of motion.
Instead of going from here, to here.
From here, just go down.
I'll do it slowly, from here,
not from my palm, not from my wrist,
but my elbow, just like that.
So imagine, it's almost, I'm touching my pocket.
Just like that.
And this will work, if it's a punch,
and this will also work if it's a kick.
So let me demonstrate.
Let me do it wrong first.
So, if Shin was to hit my stomach this way,
if I block like that, the problem with this,
is it leaves too much opening, see that?
And maybe I miss, see that?
One more time, now this way on the other hand,
I'm not trying to catch it, I just dropped it.
Watch, and when I dropped it's easier to attack.
One more time, like that.
From here to here, elbow.
Alright, same thing with this side, if you hit this side,
same idea, cause my hand is already here,
and hit, right.
Ideally if he hits, see here?
It's you are, Guan Sao, and here neck chop at the same time.
One more time, so from here, right?
Do that, again, now hit a little bit harder.
Little bit harder.
See, I'm not using any force, I'm just,
putting stuff in front of him, right?
Just putting stuff in front of him.
Because my body mechanic, right?
So again, one more time, see, from here, right?
It's very simple; he's hitting hard, trust me!
It's not like he's, "oh, lets go easy."
It's pretty, and but this, nothing, so relax.
Just relax.
And so powerful, so let's say Shin,
you're going to do a kick.
It's a swift motion, kick.
Kick.
See, this, cause I'm not taking the force like that,
I'm chopping it down, so let me do it slowly,
so imagine, I'm redirecting the force,
I'm not hitting hard head like that.
So imagine, this is a force coming in right?
I'm doing this, so if I'm hitting,
fighting the force, I get hurt, but
if I'm here, redirecting the force,
redirecting the force, see that?
It's going that way, that's how this works.
Right, that's how this works, so Guan Sao.
From here, again, go low, use the elbow, drop your elbow.
It's kinda thing of doing this. Like this.
So from here, low, now, don't,
I'm exaggerating, don't drop it like to that point.
But here, see how much this covers my face?
Someone attacks my stomach, see how much this covers?
It's like a big sweep.
It covers all this chunk, right?
You remember in last video, if you haven't watched,
click on the "i" button, we talk about Bong Sao,
when someone attacks on the side like,
"What the fuck man, whoa!"
Right, same thing here, in fight.
Fighting in real life, self defense,
this is all fucking blur,
you don't know if it's a fist, it's a palm,
it's a fucking jet, I don't know what the hell,
it's just a blur.
So when it's high, you kinda like, "What the hell man?"
If it's low, you like, "What the hell man?"
This, this just covers a big chunk of my body, right.
So try again, you hit, low, it covers big chunk of my body.
It's not gonna be that precise.
I don't want to be that precise.
It's gonna be sloppy, it's going to be,
timing is gonna be off, it's okay.
I want at least, fuck, I'm blocking something, right?
But, if I, try again?
If I (yell) like that, if I miss, that's it.
One more time, and if we're going into weapons,
and stuff like that, it's a different story,
if it's a knife or whatever,
I'm not talking about knives in the area,
I'm just talking about empty hand.
So, Guan Sao, like so,
and the ones you can also practice,
let me give you a drill before you go.
So from here, you did a Guan Sao, and you can punch.
From here, Guan Sao, you can punch.
Guan Sao, you can punch.
Punch.
And that's what we did in the beginning.
When the drill happens,
so you can just do a free flow punch drill right?
I'm doing my strict flats,
not even doing like force, 1/3rd half speed, right.
He hits low, fine, he hits low,
I don't know which angle he's gonna hit, right.
From here, right, right,
so I'm just doing my thing.
That's what it is.
