Grandmaster Sam Kwok is the GOAT of Wing Chun!

Wing Chun Kung Fu taught by Retired Police Officer and Tactics Expert, Dominick Izzo.

Dominick Izzo has been training Wrestling and Coaching since 1988 and training and teaching Wing Chun since 1996 and has been teaching. He was the first American Wing Chun instructor to be published and published in back to back issues in Wing Chun Illustrated.

He is world renown for his realistic, aggressive and combative approach to Wing Chun Kung Fu.

Grand Master Kwok worked at a mental hospital and would utilize Wing Chun to subdue unruly patients with out harming them! He is a true master. I had the privilege to attend 3 of his seminars down in Southern Californin and I got to touch hands with him.

I was under Sam Kwok's lineage when I started, and met him at my first seminar in 1997. Compared to anyone I had seen, he was the first real deal Master that I met. Blew everyone's mind.

Paul Smith was my first Sifu. Paul Smith and his brother got attacked by 10 guys and Paul beat the crap out of them. Paul had great respect for Sam and Paul scared the crap out of me! Paul died of ALS a few years ago.

He seems to be gifted with a natural intelligence, which is excellent in Wing Chung . Most people can never expect to emulate him, no matter how hard they practice. Thank you . Cheers

He is like Bruce Lee, No Real Fights only Movie Fight.

What do you think of Jiu Wan lineage...Jason Lau and Francis Fong

one of the few schools in HK that allegedly empasized sparring...that attitude has been passed down along that lineage. Very beneficial.

I was taught from Samuel kwok lineage over 30 years ago in the UK. I have just started back at it recently and wish I'd never stopped. Im greatful my sifu who taught me for 4 or 5 years, & taught strictly coz a lot of it stuck.
Dominic's videos really resonate, no BS and so much to learn of you listen. ✊️

My sifu Rick Frye had a falling out with Ron Heimberger when I was learning Chum Kiu, began training under Sam Kwok when I was learning Biu Jee. When he came back from his trips to the UK and Hong Kong he was full of new ideas and super impressed with Kwok. Some things blew his mind, like the way he collapses his bong sau, apparently breaking all the rules but making it work perfectly.

Cant doubt Izzo's passion for the art. The guy loves it

Can you do master wong wing chun . Is he a legit wing chun instructor. It seems like his wing chun version looks more aggressive.

Dominic - it's strange when you talk about Samuel's arms. I did chi sau with him back in 1996/97 and I swear his arms were like trolley bars wrapped with skin. Incredible. If interested, I have a video here somewhere of a seminar he did in Edinburgh with Ip Chun. During the seminar Ip Chun and Samuel are chi-sauing and it's getting faster and faster and faster and in an instant Ip Chun breaks Kwok's centre line and slaps him so hard that it took him off his feet. There was such a gasp in that room. Even my sifu Paul Smith was stunned. We all were, including Samuel himself, who did crack the joke 'oh you are so kind' to Ip Chun which brought about laughter. But even after that seminar broke up we were all talking about it.

in my opinion, wc is not for beginners, but for fighters who like to go into infight and close combat. wc is simple but also complex, many techniques and unusual techniques.

[martialgeeks]

I'm far from a pure stylist in anything and have very limited formal WC training...that being said I've used it every single mma fight I had, I spar with it every time I put gloves on and people who know what to look for recognize that it infact is wing chun 🤷‍♂️

[DenshaOtoko]

Sifu Izzo what do you think about Kenneth Cheung and Leung Sheung Wing Chun? Also what do you think about Ip Man and Ip Man Wing Chun or Ip Ching and Ip Chun Wing Chun?

[Viewpoint]

Kenneth Chung is a worthwhile master to look at too.

[PrejeanTime-prkw]

Sam Kwok was never great but he is a fantastic ambassador for Wing Chun! He goes to different countries promoting it, he is well connected with those from other martial arts, he stayed away from conflicts such as the Wing Chun war in the 80's. In terms of functional Wing Chun to directly use on the street, Sam Kwok's Wing Chun is as far removed from that as you can get, for functional practical stuff check out people like Sergio Iadarola, Francis Fong, Thomas Mannes, Emin Boztepe, etc but to learn the art to look good and to learn more about Chinese culture then Sam Kwok is the man. Any of the afore mentioned people would knock Sam Kwok around a room at chi sao and those from other lineages who have done chi sao with Sam Kwok they describe him as being like swiss cheese i.e. full of holes and very easy to hit but to someone not trying or that doesn't know too much then Sam Kwok's chi sao can look great to them.

Chu shong tin did always say that if you want to learn how to attack just learn to defend.

[russellthompson]

Well if you do chi sau then hit the dummy just touch the dummy and it should move like it was hit by a 20lb hammer very dynamic ?

[martialgeeks]

Been a while since the last video very excited

Omg, my first sifu was Master Heimberger in Orem, Utah with the Wing Chun Kung Fu Council.
