I heard this from a wing chun instructor in a video.
Is this true? I mean is this official wing chun philosophy?
If this is really correct and UNLESS you attack at the right time and intercept your enemy
and in case you miss this window of opportunity you get beaten up then this means that wing
chun is really very limited.
I mean what sense does this even make?!
For example if a wing chun guy only has a chance of winning against somebody else by being
able to destroy him before the fight really starts then this means that the wing chun defense sucks.
This is like saying boxing only works if you attack. A boxer can also simply keep the distance and not
attack but his defense still works and protects him.
But obviously in wing chun this is not the case otherwise people wouldn't always say "he just stood there"
when a wing chun guy gets beaten up.
Take IP Man 3 for example. Ip Man doesn't always attack like a madman he also deflects punches. He's not
always rushing into his enemies like a train.
