What do I know about distance learning? I live in a county where there was no wing chun, I started
way back in 2004 looking for a way to learn it, I thought about going to near by
counties but that was not really an option because of my job.
I had learned other martial arts from visually repeating what I would see and I
thought I could do it with DVD's so I went out and bought some. Seriously that
does not work, you can't learn wing chun on your own, I know, I tried it.
IF YOU ARE SELF-MOTIVATED then there is a possibility that distance learning
might work for you.
Out of frustration, in the end I bought the AWCA Siu Nim Tau eBook and started
practicing twice weekly for one hour each time, I bought this in 2005 and it was
not until 2006 that the AWCA Distance Learning course re-opened and I could join
and that's what I did.
Because I had been practicing via the eBook I flew through
two thirds of the Siu Nim Tau curriculum in only three months, but it took
another seven months for me to complete the Siu Nim Tau part of the course after
visiting
Chicago
At weekends I used to grab my nephew into help me demonstrate what I had learned
and I would send videos every week to Sifu Phil Bradley who would help me fix
where I was going wrong.
The following year I trained and trained the Chum Kiu form and application,
EVERY day I would work on it and by the time I visited
Arizona and had been tested
"in person", i jumped three grades putting me at student grade 6, then the
following year after being tested in
North Carolina i jumped up another
grade to Student grade 7.
It was at this point I joined with Grandmaster Samuel Kwok and received personal
training from him that my wing chun blossomed in to what it is today, but
none of this would have been possible without distance learning.
So "I have" lived the distance learning experience so "I know" what you people
need to learn it effectively, "you can" learn wing chun via distance learning if
you are self-motivated and you are willing to go the extra yard and put the work
in.
So that's enough about me.... this is my way of giving back to those who want to learn.
and FYI the grades don't come easy... you have to work for them!
Please note that while you can mimic the movements of
chi sau (sticky hands) in the air it would be better to have a training partner
to get better.
You will learn a lot of Wing Chun before we actually get to that stage where you
learn chi sau and most of it can be learned by yourself. so don't be put off by
that, by the time you get to this stage you will probably be talking and training
with other people.
