What Iâve learned about a lot of the âimpracticalâ martial arts is they were created for a specific purpose, wing chun for example youâre supposed to wield two bladed weapons, it focuses a lot on parrying and deflecting on coming attacks instead of blocking, capoeira was a style that was designed to be practiced in secret and was done to music to look like a dance. When you take these martial arts out of their context and apply them to actually fighting you have to understand you canât use them the exact same way you learned this, because despite how fluid and lively capoeira looks, when stationary and planted it can deliver some of the most powerful kicks Iâve seen from some really odd angles. Context matters and itâs always important to differentiate that practicing and learning a martial art will be very different that using it in a practical setting, that even applies to judo, wrestling, boxing, etc. youâre learning skills but in a real fight you arenât going to be playing by the same rules you trained under. Always appreciate where your classroom ends

I took classes in both Wing Chun and Taekwondo.
Both of them seem really focused on teaching fighting like choreographed dance.
Specific attacks with specific defenses, it doesn't all seem very practical and applicable to real life.
One thing I did learn in taekwondo was how to kick someone in the face really fast.
One thing I learned in Wing Chun was how to block a punch and lock up someone's arm in the same movement.
Those two things alone have ended the few fights I have actually been in pretty quickly.

As a wing chun student thatâs also learned and cross trained in Muay Thai and some bjj, most of wing chun is much better suited for grappling than striking, or at the very least, is best when in grappling range. The few things you can make work outside of that range are parries, straight punch to the face since most peoples guards arenât expecting a straight punch, and kicks to the knee or stomach from punch range. All the other stuff like trapping, guard manipulation, elbows, and chain punch only really work from close range, with chain punch only really working when the opponent canât run, like when theyâre cornered or you have them on the ground and youâre in mount.

When people dislike Wing Chun because it's a classical martial art, it always bugs me that they don't immediately bring up Jeet kune Do. That's what I teach, and it's the original mixed martial art. Our mantra is literally, "Accept what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is essentially your own." Which means that if you find something that doesn't work, they expect you to leave it out of your repertoire

Hereâs what people get wrong. Wing chun isnât useless, it might feel useless because you are not learning it right. Itâs a style of martial art focused on defending and techniques. Brute muscle force isnât needed. My teacher said that Wing chunâs number one Nono is being too tense. Not to mention it also comes with spiritual parts, years of dedication and training, itâs not a fighting style you can achieve because you want to âtry something newâ

One aspect of WC that I feel many people ignore is the context of its original purpose and theory.
The system was created for someone one smaller, with less force in their strikes. The emphasis was placed on speed and multiple strikes to compensate for someone stronger. Almost all modern striking arts emphasise getting the most power for a strike. When you apply that to WC, it throws off its form and frankly just canât compete based on its framework.
WC, is weaker because of its design, not there lack of. Figuratively speaking, boxing is like âhow can I get the most power out of this one punchâ while WC is more like âI canât throw like that guy, but I can throw 15 punches in the same time to equal the overall power of their one punch.â

Wing Chun + 2 knives = 25 stabs per second
