You feel insecure? You are reading in the newspapers that many people are victims of violence, especially in the big cities? Smaller cities are often relatively safe compared to larger cities, but you cannot feel really safe anywhere. Therefore, you should prepare for appropriate situations with the appropriate self-defence.
Above all, it is a problem to know how to react correctly in every situation. The case of emergency help for other people, in which one should show moral courage, is often in discussion in connection with the topic of self-defence.
However, it is not always a proof of the quality of a martial arts school to have a lot of students, because not all students practice martial arts for self-defence, many only for the improvement of health or for philosophical reasons.
Pay attention to whether the teacher teaches techniques that work without physical strength, because if you need a lot of strength for self-defence than you can also do weightlifting instead. If you visit a Wing Chun self-defence school that has a 1,90 m tall Kung Fu teacher with a lot of muscles, you should ask yourself if the teacher is just good because his muscles or because his Wing Chun skills.
Wing Chun Kung Fu was developed by a woman and passed over to a woman. Unfortunately, the true knowledge of the practice of the original Wing Chun has barely arrived in the West (and even in some cases not in Hong Kong) until today, and most teachers only talk about softness and no force requirement, but always use strength for the techniques for self-defence. Grandmaster Ip Man and his son Ip Chun were or are only about 1,70 m / 1,50 m tall and not muscular, even our German Grandmaster Venerable Chi Sim is only 1,68 m tall. Even the King of Kung Fu Bruce Lee was not taller.
There are also many self-defence courses especially for women, which promise that after a few hours they would be able to defend themselves. Such promises are worthless and above all dangerous, because for real self-defence a period of several months of regular training is needed.
Incidentally, your gender, your age, your height, or your athletic ability are irrelevant if you want to learn true self-defence.
We make even shy, quiet and weak people to persons, who can defend themselves with confidence! And all this in a friendly, harmonious atmosphere like in a family with a slow coordinated approach to the more aggressive aspects of Wing Chun Kung Fu for self-defence.
