I just want to ask when after no. of years after starting to train when you guys learnt the different techniques.
I see some of the higher grades just starting to learn bong sao after around 2 years of starting. Are your schools teaching at this speed also?
Please anyone who reads this please reply because i want to know the speeds people are being taught wing chun.
Thanks in advance!
If you put in the time and effort, I see no problem in speeding up someone in a curriculum. This is how I was taught throughout my MA and this is how I teach.
When I teach what I know (mostly privately/semi-privately), I can get someone through the first form in a few classes (they have the gross motor skill part). I also don't spend the whole time of that class going through the form...they're learning various techniques in that class in conjunction as to where they are in the forms and their aptitude.
Best,
