Ever immersed yourself in classic Kung Fu movies? In films like "Ip Man" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," it's a familiar sight that protagonists effortlessly defeat multiple opponents with just a few crucial moves.
While films often embellish, they also shed light on the emphasis of employing techniques of overcoming the strong with the weak in traditional Chinese martial arts. Such Kung Fu culture has attracted many martial arts enthusiasts globally, including Jesper Lundqvist from Denmark.
Having studied and promoted Chinese Kung Fu in Guangdong for over a decade, Lundqvist believes the principle of defeating strength with weakness in Wing Chun is akin to a self-defense skill in practical combat. Recently, he embarked on a special journey to Guangzhou to visit Chen Qingjun, a disciple of Wing Chun master Yuen Chai-Wan, to delve into the inheritance and application of this "self-defense skill" in modern society.
How do we employ skill to defeat greater force with lesser force to defuse perilous situations? Follow Jesper Lundqvist to explore the philosophical art and unique charm of Chinese Kung Fu!
