Wing Chun vs Boxing | Wing Chun does NOT work?

http://www.londonwingchun.co.uk/does-... ► Wing Chun vs Boxing: "Wing Chun DOES not work." Many people assume that if you learn Wing Chun that you will be unable to fight at a long range or cope with basic boxing or kickboxing combinations. Granted that Wing Chun is an exceptional martial art at close quarter fighting, but it can be used effectively over a long range of fighting.

The notion that “Wing Chun does not work” comes from a misunderstanding of the training methodology of Wing Chun. This video explains how Wing Chun can be used effectively over a long distance, while introducing the basic concept of improving footwork mobility.

Surprisingly there are some people outside of the Wing Chun community that have the opinion that Wing Chun does not work a fight. Of course defining a real fight is difficult, as the term can mean different things to different people. This is where the misconceptions about Wing Chun begin.

As in any martial art it is necessary to develop the ability to manage and control distance to the person that is attacking you. This involves the attribute of developing good mobility and footwork.

Our Wing Chun video discusses some simple and techniques in which to improve your mobility at long range. Key points to note, that mobility is not important at close range especially when connected (Bridged) with your attacker. At close range you should focus on good structure and rooting to the ground. In contrast, when you are moving at long range, where there is no contact with the attacker, then you should focus on mobility for distance control.
