Is wing chun good for the steet?
Wing Chun is one of the hard kungfu styles, it does have some great techniques, cause it's still kungfu of course, but if you want to use it in a fight, i would definitely not choose for kung fu, it is fast and got great techniques, but the defence is crap comparing to boxing etc. I see it as a pretty fighting style and not hard enough, i did Wushu and Wing Chun since i was little, so i know how it feels like when you're in a fight with your kungfu, got pretty beat up, but even though i won ^^ now i'm doing Thai boxing for 3 years, i would suggest you to do that too for a better fight outcome.
Reply:O wing chun is a very very good style that u can use in a street fight it also lets u take on many people if u studies it properly. This style will definately suit all of ur need on the streets.
Reply:go either for thai boxing, kick boxing or jeet kwon do


that will suit ur requirements the best
Reply:no
Reply:Who knows, anything will work against someone who doesnt know any kind of fighting but as soon as the other person knows a little bit of boxing or a little wrestling, well, its GG for you, because unless you find a real school you probably wont practice in full contact and unless you get into alot of street fights you will not have the mental attitude when it would come to a real fight





Jeet Kun Do is better, if you really want to do kung fu go with JKD
Reply:Yes Wing Chun is good for the steet....
Reply:Wing would be good for the streets although it is not a very hard kung fu. It is very useful and highly aggressive art which concentrates on centreline. Blocks are more in the nature of a deflection, which set up a hit in retaliation.Like most people said you can't compare Martial Arts you can only compare Martial Artist.
