About This Month's Video

Many martial arts think that Wing Chun has no grappling actions. What they see as grappling, they then think that Wing Chun "borrowed" something from another art. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth. For some reason, these same people forget that Wing Chun's reason for existence came to light as a response to Shaolin methods, methods known for their sometimes brutal takedowns and ground fighting applications.

This month we examine the topic of grappling by way of Man-geng-sau, or Neck Pulling-hand. This is the second movement from the Muk-Yan-Chong but the concept of grappling is seen throughout the system prior to this.
