Personal tuition in WIng chun?

I'm thinking of getting personal tuition in Wing Chun by my Sifu, was just wondering has anyone else got private in wing Chun? and have they progressed lots? is it worth it?.

Personal tuition in WIng chun?
It is not easy, any private lessons will be hard to sell.


People like to go to McDojos where they can learn bogus technique and jump around wearing a white suit with a belt.


Go to teach at a YMCA, or a local fitness gym...You will do better. Contact your Police Athletics League, I have been through this, I want to save you trouble
Reply:Ive been doing northern wushu, a couple of times i turned up to the classes later in the day and because of groups of belts ended up with a few one on one training sessions...





i have to say it was definately worth it, i dont know much about the wing chun style specifically or your si fu and si heng's but i thought it was worth it.





the best part was doing all the basic drills at the start against someone with good technique and strength, it really works your muscles properly.





ive been thinking of doing some actual private classes but ive been too busy.





Good Luck : )
Reply:Well, this could be a good situation, providing the instructor is honest.





He might decide to teach you privately but the content might not be different from what a full class would learn.





So, it's up in the air.
Reply:ok... this is a simple equation... Are you learning forms or chi sao or application?





If you are doing forms, then really you are better off saving your money and practicing them in class as you don't really need your sifu to correct you every step of the way, you will need to practice and refine these yourself and get your sifu's corrections later.





If you are doing any hands on work ie, application,, sparring, chi sao ect then private is def better... You will get the teachers gull attention and you will always progress more by training with more experienced people... This being said you also need to make sure that you practice with as many different people as possible as everyone will fight differently and it is important not to get too used to one way.
