Ip Man Wing Chun with Grandmaster Benny Meng
Wing Chun University Level 1 Online Training
Siu Nim Tao: The Foundation is the first of the three empty hand forms of Yip Man Wing Chun. It is the foundation for everything else you will learn as you progress though the entire system. Many of the Grandmasters say that Siu Nim Tao is the most important form in Wing Chun. It emphasizes nearly all of the core principles and concepts. Pay close attention and train hard in the Siu Nim Tao, for everything else you do in Wing Chun will grow from these roots.

The Chum Kiu form is the second of the empty hand forms in the Yip Man Wing Chun system and represents the intermediate level of training. It introduces footwork and movement through body unity, teaching you how to generate power through all directions – up/down, twisting left/right, and stepping forward/backward/sideways. It examines the motions and techniques, forms and body mechanics, attributes, concepts and tactics, and applications introduced in the Siu Nim Tau form with the added dimension of movement.

Wing Chun University Level 5: Trapping Hands
This set of videos focuses on Wing Chun application. It moves away from the more formal and technical, systematic training of Wing Chun and into new territory, unlocking the effective fighting skills of this great martial art system.
In the martial arts, superior skill involves economy of motion, not just crashing yourself into obstacles. Obstacles can aid you in gaining momentum or building pressure to move past the limitations to achieve the successes. When you successfully trap an opponent, it is because your opponent presented the keys to his own self-destruction. Once trapped you can control your opponent – allowing you to limit the damage done to either of you.
At the highest levels, the study of the martial arts is the study of efficiency. This study begins with the skill of Trapping, specifically with understanding Forward Energy, Pak Sau, Lap Sau and Kau Sau. Approx. 60 Minute.
WCU Level 5: Trapping Hands 30-Day Access $30
Wing Chun University Level 6: Long Pole
These videos cover the Luk Dim Boon Gwan, the first weapon of the Yip Man system, and the secrets of the Luk Dim Boon (6½ Points). In this comprehensive set, Master Benny Meng covers the history of the pole, basic exercises to prepare you to use the pole, fundamental movements such as stances & footwork, individual techniques, and the sequence of the form itself, and most importantly, the concepts behind the term Luk Dim Boon (6½ Points).
Through the practice of Wing Chun Weapons, you will enhance your empty-hand skill, structure, and power, regardless of your martial arts background. This set builds on the previous levels, bringing you further into the advanced level of training and understanding, with a focus on Wing Chun as a concept based art containing only two weapons: the long pole and the double short knives. Within these two weapons are the concepts to understand and unlock the knowledge of all hand-to-hand weapons including: long, medium and short weapons, single and double weapons, blunt and sharp weapons, and light and heavy weapons.
