His Wing Chun Blows My Mind | Sifu Francis Fong

It's still amaze me that Sifu Francis Fong is in his 70s consider the way he moves and the speed of his hands.

I really enjoy training with Sifu Francis as well as listening to him talk. I hope you will find useful information in this clip!

the biggest takeaway from him talking at the end is the fact that he isn't 'i'm wing chun and i'm better than everything else'. He acknowledged there's a wealth of information (languages) to learn from all disciplines. Don't find that often in tdm instructors.

I had the honor of studying under Sifu Fong back in the 80s. He had a small school above a furniture (?) shop in Atlanta, GA. The most striking thing I remember about his technique was how... soft... it was. I mean when you attacked you could almost not feel his defense and counter. His arms were so light to the touch, yet he could control you and then blast you with such speed and power. The best analogy is to say it was like fighting a hurricane. When you attacked it felt like you were fighting air. When he countered you felt like you were in a storm. (I still have our class picture on my home office wall).

I think this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. To Sifu Francis Fong... I don't know where to start... Thank you Kevin for sharing this video. This video is a wakeup call for me to get back into training and back to Wing Chun. My Sifu moved far away a couple of years back so I stopped training. It just wasn't as fun anymore. Now I will look up new clubs and hope that I can find a great teacher. Again, thank you!

not gunna lie, this is the most impressive display of wing chun concepts iv seen.

[mazekepr]

Didn't know wing chun could have this kind of "faces". I'm in love!

I've wanted to study Wing Chun for over 10 years and this is the most in depth training/teaching I have seen. Thank you and Sifu for sharing this online for free! It has inspired me to find a good Wing Chun master to finally start training properly

[jimrudolph]

This master is taking Wing Chun to different level. Very impressive. Never seen Wing Chun applied while on the ground.

I met Sifu Francis Fong at his institute of Martial Arts, in GA, during the 90's. Truly a great teacher. Great sense of humor!

[BradYaeger]

My background is very limited when it comes to Wing Chun, but there's enough cross over with Silat and Kali that I can relate. As one teacher said, "It's not really about the hands and feet, I'm attacking your spine . If I can control that, I can control you ." If you watch how when he wants to, Sifu steals your balance and breaks your structure . That translates into any style and application . Even when you are squared up with an aware opponent. This same teacher used another example when he was walking across the mats on day he caught his toe on a loose edge and stumbled a bit. He stopped class and said "Who saw that? I've been training for 30 years, I have 5 different black belts, but look how none of that mattered the instant I tripped and was off balance. THAT'S the thing we are trying to create."

Probably the best wing chun I've seen online. Blessings for many more years for Sifu.

This guy clearly knows what he is doing. It's great to have this kind of master to learn from.

[MrPunch-iojo]

Simply amazing. Some of the best integrations of Wing Chun into ground work.

With Sifu you can tell he’s spent time on the ground learning. The minute he mentions “seatbelt” and points out micro adjustments and positioning you know he’s been learning Jiu Jitsu, THEN finding a way to use his base for the possible solution. Thank you for posting.

[mannygotdahits]

He seems like an AMAZING teacher for SURE. Very Patience, very sturn, nothing is silly, but obviously effective.

[Jeff-febi]

This master is a gold mine of knowledge. Im a bjj guy through and thru, trained since 2007, and in the lineage of Rickson. If people would actually watch this whole video he has some amazing concepts in which he applies to grappling. Its actually the same ones Rickson always, speaks about Connection, flow with the go, wieght distribution, angles, base . would love to see one of these keyboard warriors challenge Sifu in his prime. Stop with all the " that will never work on the street" or "that is all outdated, or " that wont work on a trained guy". If you are a martial artist you will see the beauty in this masters knowledge.

[martinstuvland]

The amount of in depth understanding of bio-mechanics and leverages is insane. This is going straight to favorites! I'd be prepared to be humbled and honored to learn under him. I practice Kyokushin on the general.

[cynthiagonzojohnston]

It's magic. I could watch for hours and still not be able to see what's happening in front of my eyes. Beautiful and compelling. Thank you!

The Wing Chun of Sifu Fong is like water. Hard and soft, as needed. But always fluid and dynamic.

[marshallarchiveofasianfilm]

Many people claim to be a 'master' and put it before their name, however many of them are simply not that good. Sifu Francis Fong is absolutely a master, he is awesome ! Every move is quality and made to look so easy. Much respect.

[ooolol]

His Moves flow like water, doesn't appear like doing much but then you loook at the opponent and you find the opponent tapping.
Simply incredible.

Bless this old man. He's sharing his wealth of knowledge with a new generation. May he have many more years of happy life before he joins his ancestors.
