Two women Kung Fu students go at it on the street!

This is one of the better Kung Fu fights; at least they tried to apply some techniques instead of turning it into a scrap the way other real Kung Fu fights on the Internet end up.

Wing Chun is practiced globally in over 64 countries. It is the world’s most popular form of Southern Kung Fu.

These women are at the beginner to intermediate level, and they go after each other at full force.

Wing Chun, also romanised as Ving Tsun or Wing Tsun, is a concept-based Chinese martial art and form of self-defense utilising both striking and grappling while specialising in close-range combat.

Wing Chun techniques are uncommitted. This means that if the technique fails to connect, the practitioner’s position or balance is less affected. If the attack fails, the practitioner is able to “flow” easily into a follow-up attack. All Wing Chun techniques permit this.

Any punches or kicks can be strung together to form a “chain” of attacks. According to Wing Chun theory, these attacks, in contrast to one big attack, break down the opponent gradually causing internal damage. Chained vertical punches are a common Wing Chun identifier.

Direct Lineage of Wing Chun as passed down from ip man to the UK – Grandmaster Ip Man, Grandmaster Ip Chun, Grand Master Michael Tse, Master Darryl Moy, Sifu Sean Mann.

Technically, the word Kung Fu is closely translated to “martial arts” in Chinese.

However, if you meet Chinese who are not from Hong Kong or the Guangdong province (also known as Canton), where they speak Cantonese, you may hear them say, “Gong Fu” or maybe “Wushu.” These are all similar terms.

But, in China itself, “Wushu” is the common term for ‘Chinese’ martial arts, not Kung Fu. Most people will talk to you about, or train “Wushu,” not kung fu.

Wing Chun is one of many styles found in Kung Fu/Wushu. There is also Taiji (tai chi), Bagua, Choy Li Fut, Sanda, Hung Gar, and many more.
