How Best To Approach Your Wing Chun Training
I have been getting a lot if questions about how often you should train or go to your wing chun training classes.What is the right balance?Depends on your circumstances.Two or three classes per week should be OK.That may not be practical to everyone.When i started i was a student so i had time but little money. It can get quite expensive –and then when you throw in the uniform, and other accessories it adds up. However the thing you must realize is that your kung fu training does not end when you finish your class.You may only manage minimal training as life gets in the way. Developing your home training strategies is important.
It only needs to take about half an hour or 45 minutes whatever you can spare.Preparation is the key with stretching and warm ups important. This is the most important part….then follow up with a form. Alternate to to keep it interesting. From there I would practice a few punching drills working on your footwork. Moving forward and backwards than practicing a few kicks.Start out with Bil sao front kick~Try out with bil sao front kick drill~Start out with Bil sao front kick}.
If you have a wing chun wooden dummy then you are a step ahead of the rest. However this is not essential.
This will help you focus and maintain your skill on the basics and from there you can also practice on an imaginary opponent – practice what you learned on your last lessons and go through the moves. If you are really eager to do your extra bit you can do what I did and keep a diary of every class and every lesson you take. This can be your keep sake to always have to refer to. Remember your training does not stop at the classroom
