Which means all the others ones are fake.

It's all a matter of perspective.

It is just a name , nothing else

I know, just sounds arrogant and uncalled for.

I agree. It gives the strong message that any Wing Chun methods that are different from those of the person saying this....are NOT the "real" thing and therefore substandard or somehow "false".

How true, I think your choice of words in the past were; others are modified and yours is "traditional" (authentic)…

Well, saying that a WC system ( or any system) is tradional, modified or modern is one thing, saying it is REAL tends to state that all the rest are NOT REAL.How true, I think your choice of words in the past were; others are modified and yours is "traditional" (authentic)…

I just repeated what he said to me personally and agreed with his statement also… “Modified” (not authentic/false), “traditional” (authentic/real), then again you might be right…
Humm, maybe that’s why he posted it that way in the title of the clip, because they’re always taught from the beginning of their studies that their system is “traditional” and others are “modified” in which might have prompted the word “real”…
Take care,

I don't use the term modified. It's divisive.How true, I think your choice of words in the past were; others are modified and yours is "traditional" (authentic)…

It’s good to have a change of heart dealing with those terms…

This is one of the first versions of third form learned in Willam Cheungs academy in Australia in the early 80 s .

I was refering to the wide movements and the stomping on the ground like in the video. You should never stomp on the ground in any lineage of Wing Chun. You should always place your feet on the ground with control so that you can interrupt if you need to. Bak Mei, Lung Ying, and some other styles stomp but not WC.

Like i said , the form was teached by William Cheung , maybe it is wrong now , but 30 years ago was correct

I only watched some of the Sil Lim, and yes, it is somewhat different. I don't see that it is wrong though. Still looked WC to me. I don't think that you will ever see authentic today. Authentic has disappeared into history. What we see now is everyone's personal representation. When all these Chinese guys came over here to the US with Wing Chun, there were still 10,000 more Chinese still in China that did a form of Wing Chun. So who knows what is authentic? If it was taught in the Chinese army, do you realize how many people have served in their army up to then?
