Wing Chun is an ancient Chinese martial art that specializes in close-range, hand-to-hand combat. The style's emphasis on the economy of movement and intercepting an attack with a counterattack has earned it a reputation as one of the most effective fighting styles in the world. Follow these steps to buy Wing Chun videos to see a world class martial art in action.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Determine your reasons for buying a Wing Chun video. There are literally thousands of different Wing Chun videos. Some, such as the 1994 film "Wing Chun," are excellent kung fu films. Other videos are serious instructional movies that can give you an introduction to Wing Chun or help you improve specific moves and skills. So decide why you want the videos before you set out to buy them.

  2. Step 2

    Find a good teacher. Almost all instructional Wing Chun videos feature a master who is an expert teacher of the style. Because Wing Chun is largely an oral tradition, each master has a slightly different teaching approach and fighting style. Check out different masters such as Chum Kiu and Michael Wong to see which teacher is right for you.

  3. Step 3

    Buy a set or series. There are clear advantages to buying sets or series of Wing Chun videos. A well-produced series gives viewers a carefully designed progression of skills and moves and also tests students to see if their skills are moving forward. Check out Wing Chun video sets on the Tai Chi Finder website and save some money by buying multiple videos at once.

  4. Step 4

    Get specialized videos. After you have watched Wing Chun videos from a couple of different masters, you should progress to watching videos devoted entirely to certain forms and skills. You can buy videos entitled "Wing Chun Elbows," "Fist Arts" and "Palm Technique" to work on specific muscles, skills and forms.
