Economy of Motion (Universal Solution)


The '' universal solution ", the center line etc. The economy of Wing Tzun manifests itself in all corners and ends of this martial art and provides surprises and eye-openers to even the most advanced students.

WIng Tzun Kung Fu (WT) deals with the greatest number of possible attacks with the smallest number of deliberate movements.

Fewer movements = less confusion = faster reaction
... and faster learning.

There are no purely "defensive" or "offensive" movements in Wing Tzun. Every movement contains elements of both offense and defense. Our "offense" provides protection, and our "defense" attacks the enemy. Offense and defense are one in Wing Tzun, hence simultaneous, giving the enemy no time to renew his attack or evade our counterattack.

In Wing Tzun we learn to perform up to three movements simultaneously, e.g. different movements with each arm and a leg. The limbs are trained to move independently of each other.

Wing Tzun movements take the shortest routes possible to achieve their goals, increasing efficiency and speed.
