| In practicing Wing Tzun, the focus is less on drilling powerful and quick techniques, as in many martial arts such as Karate and Tae Kwon Do, but rather on so-called 'sensitivity drills' where the students learn a softness in the limbs which prevents the restriction in movement created by being permanently tense. The system also stresses minimal movements to achieve the necessary effect so all movement is as efficient as possible. One of the characteristics of Wing Tzun is its development of a systematic, progressive system for transmitting the art. The Wing Tzun system provides for a set of levels of achievement, each of which must be mastered before moving to the next. There are a number of "grades", ranging from student, to technician, to master level. Wing Tzun enables men and women of every age to defend themselves against a stronger opponent. The student learns quickly how to protect him/herself efficiently in a realistic situation. Our students build upon their natural reflexes that are trained with the EBMAS training system. Through this specialized training, one stays calm in a fight situation. One can rely on his/her reflexes that are much faster than a reaction started through visual contact. Wing Tzun teaches one to utilize the opponent's force with soft movements. EBMAS students become more self assured through a new self-confidence with the result that they rarely get in dangerous situations. And if they do find themselves in a potentially dangerous situation, they have efficient, weaponless techniques and are able to effectively use them with explosive movements. One who learns Wing Tzun develops a complete new sensitivity for one's body and relaxes its muscles. Everybody can learn EBMAS-Wing Tzun and perform it independently from age. It offers safety, mental and physical balance and joy. A student of EBMAS can continuously learn something new and develop it. |
