On the actual combat characteristics of Yongchun boxing

Yongchun boxing is a close combat skill, which is similar to Longxing boxing, Baimei boxing and Southern Mantis Boxing. It puts both hands in front of the body to resist the enemy. It is different from other boxing skills of Changqiao Dama boxing and double boxing. Yongchun boxing extends many features from the feature of close distance.

Since the arms are placed in front of the body, we need to use the short-distance force method to make our fist and palm. In ancient times, this method is called "long bridge force" (long bridge means that the arms are extended in front), Bruce Lee calls it "Cunjin", while master Ye Zhun calls it "short-distance force". Among the three, the name "short-distance force" is the most clear and appropriate.

In close combat, it is easy for both the enemy and ourselves to be hit, so we should grasp the most important position. This position is the "middle line", which is the most vulnerable place in the trunk. Therefore, we will defend our own middle line and attack the enemy's middle line. When the enemy and us face to face, the middle lines of the two sides are connected, forming a "meridian line". This is the shortest distance between the enemy and us. People who practice Yongchun especially focus on mastering it.

In short distance boxing, the speed is very fast, so we can't evaluate the enemy's coming and changes only by eyes. Therefore, besides moves, Wing Chun emphasizes the training of feeling. We should understand the situation of the enemy and ourselves through our feelings and decide how to respond next.

In order to get close to the enemy as soon as possible, and in order to get out of the close as soon as possible when the situation is bad, Wing Chun boxing pays special attention to the flexible change of the horse step, so the horse step is higher, and the up and down advance and retreat are more dexterous. There are many characteristics of Yongchun boxing, such as short distance and short distance, holding the midline and meridian, paying attention to the feeling of contact
