The ULTIMATE Trapping METHOD | Wing Chun Technique (Tutorial)

https://www.londonwingchun.co.uk/wing... ► Practical Wing Chun trapping for self defence. This tutorial that teaches a variation that incorporates an arm drag. This approach is rarely used by many Wing Chun practitioners and can be useful for practical self defence applications.

Trapping hands is a popular aspect of Wing Chun, but is it really useful? This video tutorial examines the real value of Wing Chun Trapping and how it can be built on for Self Defence. By definition this Wing Chun technique is the action of crossing and trapping your attacker’s arms. So, trapping may be more effective and relative to a self defence confrontation than a boxing, kickboxing, or mixed martial arts (mma) contest.

There is a misunderstanding of the action of trapping. In fact, the idea of Wing Chun trapping is shrouded by the myth that once applied your attacker will be magically incapable of moving. Of course the reality is that any person who has their arms trapped will fight frantically to free them. There is no martial arts magic in play.

The concept of Trapping is more ingenious than a simple trick in which you think you have rendered your attackers arms incapable. Trapping in Wing Chun develops your awareness of time, space, and energy. Read our blog to see how trapping relates to these martial arts attributes.

Tapping is essentially the ability to control space as a useful self defence technique. Trapping is useful for self defence because it allows the cross the arms of the attacker. If their arms are crossed then they will find it very difficult to swing punches at you. Hence, your attacker cannot defend against your counter attack. However, you only have a split second in which to follow up when you trap the person’s arms, so use it wisely.
