Kung Fu for Women in Orange County
In our art's legendary beginnings, Wing Chun Kung Fu was created by a woman as an equalizer against larger and stronger opponents.
Wing Chun finds its power in relaxed softness. The painstaking development of this sensitive, enigmatic soft "force" allows even very small people of seemingly inferior strength to develop "penetrating" power -- a power made even more effective against an opponent using more typical, hard, brute force. The "hard" or rigid energy of the opponent actually serves to augment the "passive" whip-like energy of wing chun. It is acquired through repetitive, precise positioning of the body. The positions and techniques are always practiced in a calm, relaxed manner. While the process to achieve this kind of force should be emphatically soft and relaxed, the end result for anyone on the receiving end of Wing Chun can be quite destructive.
One of the world's most popular forms of Kung Fu, Wing Chun Kung Fu is a logical, scientific and highly effective form of self-defense.
Wing Chun Kung Fu appeal is due both to its simplicity and its depth. Emphasizing direct and efficient body mechanics by controlling an opponent's centerline, Wing Chun Kung Fu quickly overwhelms an attacker.
Wing Chun is an interesting form of combat which doesn't use the force-against-force style of Japanese Karate or Korean Tae Kwon Do. Wing Chun is simple, quick effective and economical. No brute strength. Correct positioning, feeling, awareness, timing and strategy are relied on instead. Low kicks, straight punches and immediate counterattacks are the trademark of Wing Chun. Wing Chun is easily one of the most effective systems ever to have come out of China.
