If you speak to any Wing Chun practitioner they will always explain to you that one of the core concepts within this martial art is to attack and defend simultaneously when attacked in a fight. The idea behind this concept is that you can move more efficiently and therefore defend yourself better if someone throws a big punch.
How does this really work in a fight or in self defence? People tend to throw multiple punches in a barrage to overwhelm you in a street fight. So how does Wing Chun really answer this problem? Well in this video we discuss how to use a well known Wing Chun technique called Taan Sao for simultaneous blocking and attacking.
In the first part of the video we introduce the technique of Taan Da and explain the potential problems in making it work for self defence or in a real fight. The key point to note is that you have to punch hard in order to slow to stop your attacker’s second punch. Only then can you actually fight back with some clear Wing Chun follow ups. However, there is still a risk of your attacker throwing a second punch, especially if they are able to absorb your counter strike.
The second part of the video introduces a safer more reliable approach in which to use this technique. In this part of the video we discuss the safer option of moving to the outside gate of a punch combination and then intercepting to the inside gate with the Taan Da. This is a safer method for self defence because it allows you to control the space and the centre ground.
The third part of the video recaps the basic ideas of how to train this approach in Wing Chun Chi Sao. How it is derived from Chi Sao practice and how it relates to actual fighting. The key point to note is that practising in this method of training allows you the ability to understand how to find a simultaneous attack and defence when your arms are clinched with your attackers.
