Relaxation plus speed equals power

What does this really mean? Most martial arts believe that when two forces come together, the greater force always dominates. Which is true in many factors but in the art of Wing Chun, the opposite is true. In Wing Chun we believe that the redirection is most important. It is like a car driving forward at a high velocity and you are standing in its way. You have two choices: 1. stand and try to stop the forward energy, or 2. move away either to the left or the right to evade the kinetic energy.

A simple swift attack is more severe than a long complicated arranged one. Applying the softness with the hardness is the main factor in Wing Chun. Speed generates force, or power. It doesn’t matter what size or gender he or she is, anyone can apply maximum force.
