It has been voted by some of the martial art stylists as one of the best martial arts of the twentieth century. Though, you might have seen some of the best martial arts from China, Japan, Thailand, Brazil or some other countries, but I reckon that Wing Chu differs from most of them in terms of its execution and hold on the opponents.

Students of Wing Chun understands the fact that, they should use force to counteract a force. Use your brain & The Power of your opponent is the basic formula of Wing Chun Stylists.

Wing Chun emphasizes time and time again, the shortest straw between the stylist and the opponent is the center line of the human body, which is where the maximum of the movements are taking place. Due to the linear fashion of Wing Chun, students will spend a lot of their training learning how to direct attacks as well as opposing force towards the center line.
The most vital areas on the human body are found along the center line of the human body, the very important area that Wing Chun teaches its stylists to protect from as well as attack with their proper techniques. This line is the most vital in battle, which is why martial artists should always aim their attacks for any area that exists along this line of the body. Most of the vital points found in the center line can be the end of the encounter if the stylist is able to land one powerful puff.
