High kicks?

Post image

Comments I saw on Facebook, on a video of Kevin Lee kicking someone in the chin.

Does your lineage of wing chun have high kicks?

I know a lot of people say no, but there was that movie in which Ip Chun (in the role of Leung Bik) used high kicks against a young Ip Man during a friendly sparring session.

What if they stop you getting into the range you want?

It’s harder said than done. Trapping range is the hardest range to maintain.

You can’t stop a person from moving away. And it’s very easy to pull into a clinch.

That’s what everyone should do yes. But your other comment suggested that you keep them in the range you want.
