Wing Tsun is a direct style of Chinese
Kung Fu that wastes no time or effort on superfluous
movements. Wing Tsun
believes in using the least amount of required force in any fighting
situation. It believes properly, correct timed position and movement
can and should be used to defeat their opponent. This is achieved
through balance, body structure and relaxation.
Wing Tsun uses deflection and counter-attack in the same motion or will
intercept the opponent to nulify an attack, rather than blocking then
attacking in two separate motions. Further, this
interception can act as a block as a consequence of the
structure and the position of the arm travelling along its path toward
the opponent. This means that the opponent's attack is automatically
deflected by the arm-structure of the Wing Tsun practitioner as the
counter-punch is delivered.
A person using Wing Tsun is said to be able to defeat a stronger person because they are
able to use their structure effectively. Given this, it is essential in
ensuring that the Wing Tsun practitioner has a full understanding of
structure which enables them to use the correct use of energy required.
At the core of IMAS Wing Tsun is our biomechanics and fitness
programme that develops these core capabilities in a minimum timeframe.
