This review is from: Wing Chun Kung Fu Vol. 3 with William M. Cheung (DVD)

If I was reviewing this on video production, it would be lower. So skip over the 90s animation, titles, screen wipes, and weird background music.
The Wing Chun is awesome. He breaks down the wooden man form into about 10 sections, and then give examples of how to use it with Sifu Eric Oram (Robert Downey Jr.'s teacher).
He does it slow, but occasional he speeds up quite quick which is nice to see.

William Cheung is the one true heir to the Traditional Wing Chun. There are many people out there that like to dispute this, but it's a fact!

Wing Chun Kung Fu, Volume 5 by William M. Cheung

This volume 5 of the video or DVD series simultaneously summarizes basic concepts already covered in previous volumes in a clever, almost imperceptible manner of blending the concepts in with some new scenarios.

General topics covered in this volume include Wing Chun Fighting Strategy, Tactics and Techniques to deal with other fighting styles in opening moves, Dim Mak, defense against various confrontation scenarios against an armed assailant wielding various weapons, at the conclusion of this volume William Cheung and his assistant perform the Chi Meditation ritual again.

Wing Chun Kung Fu fighting strategy integrates a unique combination of basic, elemental concepts to form the strategy into the system as it is learned and practiced. These are the basics: guarding the center line of the body from attack, attacking the opponent's balance, opening the opponent's defense to counter attack, gaining control of his elbow and maneuvering him or setting him up to have his arms crossed to which will hamper his efforts to attack and provide the opportunity for the defender to take the offensive at the moment of best opportunity. Other elements of Wing Chun strategy include avoiding a clash of force against force or power of the defender against power of the attacker. In this regard Wing Chun shares with aikido and jujitsu practitioners a similar strategy and attitude in dealing with an attack.

William Cheung's series of Wing Chun Kung Fu demonstrations on VHS or DVD is consistent with the information contained in James Yimm Lee's book, "Wing Chun Kung Fu" as well the books authored by William Cheung such as "Advanced Wing Chun Kung Fu." The VHS and DVD series bring the illustrations of these books to life.

Any Karate or Kung Fu practitioner will be able to appreciate what Wing Chun Kung Fu has to offer or contribute to their own practice of martial arts.

Although this series of Wing Chun Kung Fu demonstrations is available on DVD or VHS, I recommend that you buy this series on DVD so that you can replay sequences of moves and the applications of moves in fighting in slow motion or freeze scenes for better examination.

Other titles of books authored or co-authored by William Cheung include:
Advanced Wing Chun Kung Fu,
Wing Chun Kung fu/Jeet Kune Do: a comparison
Wing Chun Bil Jee: The Deadly Art of Thrusting Fingers
Kung Fu Dragon Pole
