A few words discussed about the Five Forms Fist system in Noi Gia Wing Chun

In recent times, many people (including students of the dojo) have asked me many things about Wing Chun boxing and also about things related to the past. postulate

Those of us who are passionate about martial arts all know: since ancient times, when martial arts (self-defense and combat skills) were formed, our predecessors have used many fighting skills to survive among animals.

In Wing Chun, as I have heard and learned, through research and experience, the Patriarchs of the sect have chosen five mascots that have profound impacts and demonstrate the essence of Wing Chun's martial arts.

Five forms of boxing (NHQ) in Wing Chun Noi Gia includes 6 exercises: 5 exercises of 5 forms and 1 synthesis lesson.

- Tiger fist practicemuscle - core.

- Report the right to practicetendon - force.

- Crane fist practicepure.

- Snake fist practicegas.

- Dragon fist practiceGod.

Thus we can see:

- 2 exercises: Tiger Fist and Leopard Fist belong to the outer part, training physical form (muscles - bones - tendons - force), serving as the foundation for the process of martial arts movement.

- 3 exercises Crane Fist, Snake Fist, Dragon Fist belong to the internal part, practicing Tinh - Qi - Than (Three Jewels of humans), creating sustainability and profoundness of boxing.

Besides, Vinh Xuan Noi Gia's NHQ also has other features, which are:What shape is that hand?.

To express the above content in NHQ articles is not a simple thing, and it cannot be done overnight.

Before 1959 (1955 - 1959), my master taught his students mainly fighting skills, without teaching specific forms. chance.

Although NHQ is not a high-level martial art form in Noi Gia Wing Chun, in the martial arts system of Noi Gia Vinh Xuan, NHQ is a very important part.

With a few summary points above, I would like to pause the discussion about NHQ in our Wing Chun Inner House.

If there is something I write that does not satisfy you, or is not satisfactory, I hope you will sympathize with my knowledge, as well as my limitation of only writing about our system.
