Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau

Wing Chun’s Little-Idea Form

Official Training Curriculum
of the Arizona Wing Chun Association®

Sifu Phil… Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau is worth MORE than I imagined. After 5 months of training with it, I was finally able to afford classes at a school. My Sifu said that he was putting me in the advanced Siu-Nim-Tau class! He was VERY surprised (and impressed) when I told him my previous training was solely through your eBook!

Dear Wing Chun friends and colleagues…

Are you tired of spending countless hours on the Internet searching for Wing Chun training that just ends up being bits and pieces? If so, then this will be one of the most important messages you will ever read.

If you are like me, then you have a genuine passion for everything that concerns Wing Chun. From books, magazines, and videos to websites and newsletters, there is just something about this art that captures us and will not let go.

Something has always puzzled me, though.

Look at any other martial art and you will find a variety of instructional manuals. Not just demonstrations here and there, but illustrative video-laden books and DVD’s filled with step-by-step teaching materials to actually learn the art being portrayed.

But not Wing Chun.

Sure there are various books and videos on the market now, but what do they really do? They demonstrate the art. They might show a form here and there, and even an example of a few movements. But really teaching the art? No, that is something you will not find (and if you do, let me know because I have looked for over 20 years and have come up with nothing).

Since beginning my training in 1985, we always took notes so that the last 10-15 minutes of class, we could review with our Si-Fu and ensure that our lessons were understood. I always kept meticulous notes about every aspect I was exposed to, and over 20 years, the result is now five 3-ring binders packed full of step-by-step training information. From forms, drills and applications to concepts and theories, everything I have learned is documented.

When I started teaching, I decided to provide my students with study guides in order to get them involved with taking their own notes and documenting their progress. Not only does this afford everyone the same opportunities for reviewing their lessons, but writing something down vs. remembering it actually reinforces the material you are working on.

Over the years, some of my colleagues learned of these study guides and persuaded me to make them available for their classes, too. And as AWCAOnline progressed through the communities, I realized that many visitors to the site were thirsting for information since there were no schools in their areas.

I took my technical writing and eLearning trade to heart and began creating a full-featured digital publication series that included videos, full-color front and side-facing photos, a 3-step drill training process, and in-depth discussions of the concepts and theories.

This endeavor lead to the creation of the eBook Training Series, and the first volume of this series is

“Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau”

Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau takes the guesswork out of your training by providing all of the resources you need into one convenient workbook. Rather than wasting time on the Internet trying to piece together odds and ends from YouTube or other websites, the full curriculum is provided right here.

Features

Over 70 MB of narrated full and slow-motion videos takes you step-by-step through real-time Wing Chun training in the Siu-Nim-Tau. Train at your own pace, pause, rewind, and play over and over!

In-depth Discussions of Concepts & Theories
Understand the “why’s” behind the movements vs. just the movements themselves to give you more insight about what the Siu-Nim-Tau accomplishes. This lets you progress faster and learn more efficiently along the way.

Step-by-Step Training Objectives
Outlining what each lesson plan entails, you will never go into a section blind. Instead, you will know exactly what you will be learning and what is expected with each training phase.

Progress Indicators
Know immediately how far into the curriculum you have accomplished, which is an excellent motivator for continuing your training. No More Guesswork!

Based on Approved Distance Learning Guidelines
True learning resources must be approached from the viewpoint of the learner, not the writer. Therefore, professionally-certified distance learning educators were consulted to provide guidance on the format and to ensure consistency throughout the workbook.

Instructional System Design (ISD)
In addition to approved distance learning guidelines and principles, the entire format is driven from the foundation of Instructional System Design (ISD). This is the same logical foundation that programmers use when creating applications that require step-by-step progression from section-to-section.

Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau was created as both a learning platform and a reference manual so that all levels of practitioners can benefit from it. From beginner to advanced practitioner, it can be used from the ground up as an introduction to Wing Chun, as well as a full reference after the Siu-Nim-Tau has been completed.

In fact, take a look at the actual curriculum that you will be working with.

It is not easy to find quality Wing Chun training out there, that is for sure. But Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau provides the solution to a variety of problems. I have combined my years of professional multimedia work with over two decades of Wing Chun training to create a workbook training series that meets the needs of today’s practitioners.

In fact, let me share with you just a small sample of real comments from real customers of Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau. These are just brief examples of what I continuously receive. Practitioners love their workbook that much!

Phil… I just wanted to say how glad I am that I found your website and that you created the eBook Training Series. I’ve been using Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau since a few weeks after joining a school, and my classmates are amazed!  Your eBook really makes a difference, so thank you!

Si-Fu Phil’s Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau is a revolutionary step forward with Wing Chun training media. Not only is it easy-to-read, but it is also in-depth in both demonstration and explanation.

Dear Sifu Phil… This was more than I ever imagined. From the sales page I knew that Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau was going to be a good read, but I really didn’t think it would be as intensive or step-by-step like you said it would. Thanks for proving me wrong!

This is the best training manual about the Siu-Nim-Tau that I’ve ever seen. All Wing Chun practitioners should have this book.

Not only have they experienced first-hand what Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau has done for their training, but they were also kind enough to send their feedback so that others could see how effective it really is.

I do, however, want to be completely upfront and tell you straight out that

This Program Is NOT For Everyone!

Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau was created for those that actually want to train and learn the Siu-Nim-Tau. It was not created for just watching a few videos and then thinking that you can get something out of it. Instead, it is geared for literal training and for those who are serious about what they are learning.

Therefore:

• If living in front of the television is your idea of training, this workbook is not for you.
• If you think that watching a few videos vs. actually training the drills will magically create a skill set, this workbook is not for you
• If you are one of those YouTube or Google Video “keyboard warriors” that trash talks everyone instead of getting out there and doing it yourself, this workbook is not for you.

In short, if you are not ready to make a concerted effort in training, then you will get little to nothing from this training workbook. But if you are ready for the real thing, and you are ready to create a workable skill set in Wing Chun Kuen, then you have come to the right place because Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau is the real deal.

Isn’t it time that YOU experienced this training for yourself? And to make it even better, I have included some valuable resources so that you can get the most from your training efforts.

“How To Train Wing Chun”

(Value: $24.95)

Originally created for my personal students, I decided to make this special eBook report available to customers of our eBook Training Series to further your training efforts.

Chapters include:

• “The Five Stages of Learning” – Understanding the five stages of learning and how to take a simple process for applying it to any level of training.
• “Forms Training” – Forms training is more than just mimicking what you see; instead, there are a variety of elements that can help you get the most from your efforts if you know about them. With this chapter, you will.
• “Specialized Training” – Utilizing Chi-sau, Lap-sau and Chi-gerk during sparring sessions.
• “Creating Power” – Still having problems generating the kind of jack-hammer hitting power you know you should be? That will be a thing of the past after working through this chapter.
• “Staying Relaxed” – Wing Chun requires a calm, relaxed, explosive nature in order to deliver our fighting methods. Here you will learn how to remain relaxed throughout your rigorous training and sparring sessions.
• “Reality vs Classroom” – Many have approached their training from an unrealistic viewpoint, working dangerous and unworkable actions in the gym and thinking it will work in real life. In this chapter, I will show you how to keep your training at a realistic level so that you do not fall into the trap of training something in a way that can see you hurt when you really need it.

Email Training Support

(Value: $250.00)

Have a question about your training? Not entirely sure if you are on the right path? No problem! Send me an email (via the exclusive email ID you will receive after purchase) and I will offer assistance to ensure that you get the most out of your training.

Special Discounts on Future AWCA eBooks

(Value: $5.00-$10.00 per eBook)

Your purchase guarantees that you are placed on my EXCLUSIVE Gold Customers-Only list, which is notified immediately when new eBooks and services are made available. This list is never rented, sold, leased, or even SEEN by anyone other than myself.

I always offer special discounts to my Gold Customers list approximately 72 hours prior to any eBook or service being made available, giving everyone the opportunity of not only being the first in the WC/VT/WT communities for getting things first, but saving some serious money along the way.

In other words, others will pay full price, but YOU will get phenomenal training resources at a reduced rate.

Valued at over $275.00, this entire package by itself would normally drive any product or publication through the roof. But right with your purchase of Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau, it is all yours… ABSOLUTELY FREE!

And Just When You Thought It Couldn’t Get Any Better…
THINK AGAIN!

Wing Chun practitioners can be pretty finicky with their training media, and rightly so. Many of us have been duped by books or videos promising something, only later to learn that they do not deliver even half of what they promised. And in the end, it makes us all a bit “gun shy” about purchasing anything again unless we can see it right up front first.

That is why I am taking all of the risk out of your purchase – right here, right now – with my

100% No-Questions-Asked
Money-Back Guarantee And…
FREE LIFETIME UPGRADES!

Let’s Wrap This Up And Get You Into Your eBook!

You have seen what Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau is all about, and you know what it will do for you.

Approximately 70 MB of narrated full and slow-motion videos.

180+ front and side-facing photos of the complete Siu-Nim-Tau form.

3-step training drills for the applications.

In-depth concepts and theories.

A complete testing section.

Phenomenal bonuses valued at over $275.00!

Certificate of Completion at the conclusion of the training course.

I have shown you the door and now it is time for you to make the decision. You can either experience for yourself what Wing Chun is all about, or you can walk away with no hard feelings. Wing Chun is not for everyone, and not everyone has the dedication it takes to actually learn it. That is just how life is.

But if you are ready, then Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau is waiting for you.

How Much Is It?

It is no secret that I have spent a small fortune during the creation and development for the eBook Training Series, and Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau took almost 2 years to complete. From writing, editing, filming, and working all of the programs into approved distance learning guidelines, the amount of time and money for this project would blow you away (I will give you a hint, though: it was literally in the thousands of dollars).

Market research clearly indicated that this type of training media should sell for a minimum of $75.00, and that would be a bargain itself. However, my personal philosophy is that Wing Chun training should be available for everyone without breaking their bank accounts. Especially in today’s economy, who can afford that?

So you will not see it for $75.00. In fact, you will not even see it for $65.00, $55.00, or even $45.00. Right now, you can jump-start your Wing Chun training with the AWCA’s approved Siu-Nim-Tau curriculum for only

$34.95

Yes, you read that right. For only $34.95, you receive the entire Siu-Nim-Tau training package that you have been reading about.

Now, I know that some of you might be asking “Why so inexpensive?” You are glad it is, but it is still a question, right? Well, the answer is pretty simple: What good does a training resource do if it is so expensive that only a few could ever afford it?

My view is that quality training should be available to everyone, and I refuse to take advantage of my Wing Chun colleagues by making things so expensive that you have to save up forever just to acquire it (and we can all do with some savings, right?)

That is why you are seeing Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau at the very affordable of price of only $34.95, and it includes every bonus, benefit and feature you have seen here. Nothing is left out and it is presented in its entirety.

If you are tired of wasting your valuable time, effort, and money searching the Internet and still only finding bits and pieces of useful information, then you owe it to yourself to work with a REAL training program. You deserve nothing less than the absolute best, and that is Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau.

DON’T WAIT! Purchase Volume 1: Siu-Nim-Tau right now and get into your reserved training package. It will be the best training decision you ever made or your money back. Guaranteed.

To your training success,

Phil Bradley
Arizona Wing Chun Association
