Why? What about WC makes it imperative that they can defend specifically against BJJ?If Wing Chun doesn't have a defense for BBJ, it's about time to start developing one.
What if you cant get out your knife or gun in time?I have a different mindset when walking the streets. It is to bring a gun or a knife. Martial arts is a secondary. But there are too many factors when it comes to street brawls. But the idea that learning martial arts for the purpose of self-defense is absurd. There should be more to martial arts that just self defense. But I am not after self defense.
Why is learning it for self-defense absurd?
What are you after? Fitness, competition, or something else?
From another perspective, you are interested in turning WC from something that focuses on very specific things, into a 'jack of all trades master of none' style. If you do it badly, you may also put it in a 'devolved' state..the notion that arts improve linearly is not necessarily correct.It is most likely a job for your sifu's sifu to decide whether or not to 'evolve' WC, not your job.I am after WC developing it's own defense and offense against BJJ, and I want to throw this idea out there to a person who is able to practice with a BJJ practitioner. Why should WC do that in the first place? I do it for the satisfaction of knowing that WC would feel a little more advance than it's predecessor, achieving a more evolved state. You should feel the need for any kind of improvement instead of deeming it as a futile task.
If they are starting standing up...whoever is the better practitioner at their given art. If they for some reason start on the ground, most likely the BJJ practitioner.All I want to know is your thoughts about WC against BJJ.
