Benny Meng – Long Pole: Luk Dim Boon Kwan

This is the ninth in a series presented by the Ving Tsun Museum on the Yip Man system. This video covers the Luk Dim Boon Gwan, the first weapon of the Yip Man system, and the secrets of the Luk Dim Boon (6½ Points). In this comprehensive volume, Master Benny Meng covers the history of the pole, basic exercises to prepare you to use the pole, fundamental movements such as stances & footwork, individual techniques, and the sequence of the form itself, and most importantly, the concepts behind the term Luk Dim Boon (6½ Points). Through the practice of Wing Chun Weapons, you will enhance your empty-hand skill, structure, and power, regardless of your martial arts background. This volume builds on the previous eight volumes, bringing you further into the advanced level of training and understanding, with a focus on Wing Chun as a concept based art containing only two weapons: the long pole and the double short knives. Within these two weapons are the concepts to understand and unlock the knowledge of all hand-to-hand weapons including: long, medium and short weapons, single and double weapons, blunt and sharp weapons, and light and heavy weapons.
