This series covers the entire Ip Man/Moy Yat/Sunny Tang system of Ving Tsun in 108 steps. Three years in the making, each Blu-Ray disk takes you through 12 steps of the system, just as they are taught by Sifu Wayne in his schools.

The 9 Blu-ray Discs (BD) were painstakingly filmed and edited to professional standards, made up of over 4,000 unique clips, terminology, idioms, tenets, key concepts, summary dialogues, “Notes to Self”, over 100 different transitions, extremely funny gag graphics, and other artifacts. There is even a special easter egg hidden in the Blu-ray disc set where sifu Wayne demonstrates the highest of skills.

There is no duplicate footage in the Blu-Ray disc set – every explanation, demonstration, and detail is new. Changes in the way a subject is explained or new demonstration will surely help with your understanding. Each step is made up of 5 sections:

1 Teach / Demonstrate / Learn
2 Common Mistakes
3 Applications (street or chi sau)
4 Drills / Follow Along / Demonstration
5 Homework / Additional Reading

You will get sifu Wayne’s entertaining brand of funny-because-it’s-not-funny humor alongside straight facts and intelligent, logical, clear explanations that you can actually understand and believe in. The explanations are clear and the demonstrations are done both slowly and at a practical speed. If you want to learn, you’re in the right place – skill is knowledge applied if you want the skill you need the knowledge. The Blu-ray discs follow the known principles of wing chun, so our unbiased lessons will provide you with useful details regardless of what wing chun style you train. If you are looking for entertainment with speedy-flashy movement, drama, dragons/flames, cursing, simulated violence, or a style where every move is “extreme” – well, we don’t do that. Learning and entertainment are different.

Each step also uses a unique “Reality Score” system which will let you know how close this drill aligns with the final goal of using it on the street. The score is based on a formula of precision, sensitivity, environmental stability, and drill complexity. As the simple, uncomplicated, discrete skills you learn integrate into each other and are performed with greater accuracy in a more challenging and dynamic environment the “Reality Score” goes up. The scale goes from 0% which is part practice of key skills or elements of a larger technique where focus is on skill development to 100% where all the compound skills needed for fighting against a trained and uncooperative opponent are practiced.

Our open classes are essentially a “coached practice” session – where students work together on the skills that need developing and sifu Wayne will give subtle corrections or details or perspectives to help with understanding and progress. When the current skills have developed to a point where they can be combined or where they can support another piece, that new piece – the next step in the curriculum – is taught. When we teach that new step, it includes the 5 sections shown above – the 4 or 5 key points, mistakes to watch out for, a demonstration and the associated drills, how the technique is used, and homework. So we took exactly what our students learn and put it on Blu-ray disc for you.

Too much information at the early stage of practice would leave them overwhelmed. We want to give them enough that they can learn by exploration and ask questions. As time goes on and they get better or get off track, we will offer those subtle corrections or details to keep them going in the right direction or to clear up physical/mental roadblocks they might have.

I hope you enjoy and learn a ton from this set of lessons. As usual, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me. Enjoy.
