• Harnessing Elbow Energy (Tan Sao): Master the art of generating and directing elbow power in the Tan Sao (Extended Straight Hand) technique.

The Wing Chun Three-Hand Concept

A core principle of Siu Nim Tao is the concept of the "Wing Chun three hands." The Tan, Bong, and Fu Sao techniques are fundamental to success in Wing Chun Chi Sao (sticky hands) and real-world combat. A deeper understanding of these techniques will unlock significant progress.

Why a Deeper Dive Matters

After three years of dedicated practice and extensive study, including direct inquiries with Ip Chun before his retirement, I've discovered that a thorough understanding of Siu Nim Tao is essential to avoid frustration in Chi Sao. This course offers that deeper understanding.
