Wing Chun Unchained, will challenge you to open your mind to the potential of Wing Chun. Many students of this great system limit, not only themselves, but Wing Chun itself, due to their preconceptions of how the system should be applied. Many of these preconceptions are due to the popular Ip Man movies, and other movies that focus on Wing Chun. Still others suffer from the system being propagated by instructors with no real experience in practical application of the tools of Wing Chun in "todays" violent street conditions. Author, Tony Massengill brings not only fifty-four years of training in the martial arts, but experience based on a twenty-seven year career on the streets as a police officer, firefighter and emergency medic, to the subject of applying Wing Chun as an effective self-protection method. He has "been there and done that" and brings that practical experience to the readers of Wing Chun Unchained. Wing Chun can't be taught effectively for today, as Ip Man taught it from 1950 - 1972, because the world of fighting has changed a great deal in the intervening years. The tools of Wing Chun are efficient and effective for the task of self-protection in the modern era, but changes in the approach of application need to be considered in light of the world we live in, not the one that Ip Man's students lived in. In this book you will discover how not be afraid to develop your skills such that you can make your Wing Chun a better fit for today’s situations, rather than blindly clinging to old approaches to training and applications that do not equip us for the needs of the 21st century. The world has changed over the 300 or so years that Wing Chun has been around, and as practitioners of this system, we need to address those changes and free ourselves of outdated practices and ideas that prevent us from reaching our full potential, and we need to allow Wing Chun as the method we use, to serve us to it's full potential as well.
