Wing Chun - recognised as Master Mark Beardsell by the ICMAUA

Hello

I do Wing Chun, not to become famous or impress everyone with a high grade to say "hey look at me" i started off doing it because i felt i was cheating myself in that i never completed a martial art from beginning to end, so i went on a journey... now over 10 years later i fulfilled that dream and i am being recognized for my achievements, and being a very humble person, while reluctant to pout this on the internet, i am very honored to be recognized for that achievement by the ICMAUA.

Very many thanks for the honor

The wing chun dummy form


I had an epiphany the other day, a big bright light bulb came on just above me head, which made me chuckle, when many of us refer to the dummy form, some say there are 8 sections splitting up section one to the left as one section then the same thing to the right as the second section then the other six sections making eight. Other will say seven sections BUT split section one up as section one side A and section one side B.

What occurred to me was that in every section of the dummy form there is a side A and a Side B so why in our minds did we feel the need to break section one in to two parts whether turning into 2 section of the form or defining it as side A and side B. maybe its our first stepping stone in the form and once we have learned that section it becomes embroiled in are brains.

Just thought I would share this as it never occurred to me before, it shows that regardless of your level there is always something new to learn.

Distance Learning in 1974

Before computers were around the message was passed to budding martial artists via comic, this was taken from the "Deadly Hands of Kung Fu" it can be clearly seen that the creator was attempting to assemble a MMA system not unlike myself, every time I encountered a situation where I could get beat I went out and learned that system so that it could not be used against me, this i did with Aikido, Judo and Karate, my growth was stunted however as I could not find what I consider to be the ultimate solution, the use of the three above with relaxed tai chi energy and fingers strike know as kyusho and dim mak, I eventually found all of this in my Wing Chun.

Focus on defence, hitting comes later

Before you can practice chi sau properly you need a structurally correct bong sau and tan sau on one hand and a structurally correct f00k sau on the other hand this is your defence against the other person and if their structure is weak i.e. not structurally correct you will collapse their hands easily every time. This is why a hard training student can progress to chi sai after around 12 months, leading up to this the student should focus on don chi sau which is less confusing for the brain.

Meaning a self taught will always get beat as they have not practiced the basics correctly from a certified instructor.

Wing Chun - The truth

Because of the following directions left by our wing chun ancestors, nobody does wing chun the same way, however there are many ways to do wing chun incorrectly, these incorrect versions are not following the guidance left to us below, and that is a how to tell correct wing chun from bad wing chun. 

Always stick to the principles/maxims of wing chun they are laid out in stone… really they are laid out on stone chops made Moy Yat 

Wing Chun is a conceptual based system; for example, if you’re using a tan sau for something and it works without being collapsed, then use it that way. Otherwise do not use it that way, as its flawed.

Wing Chun does not use techniques, these are set of moves that fit together to meet specific scenarios. If your training this way your setting yourself up to fail, we don’t read minds nobody knows what’s coming at you until it arrives. 

Your best Wing Chun will be seen before the end of your life, it will never be complete or finished, but you will have learned what works and why it works which puts you ahead of those that are taking the same journey. A mans wing chun is like a fine wine it gets better with age, and the quality can be clearly seen from beginning to end. This is what makes the grandmaster, a culmination of a mans journey to learn from his passion.
