Wing Chun in Krav Maga
I was watching an episode of Human Weapon the other day. The martial art in focus was Krav Maga. What especially interested me, from a Wing-Chun perspective, was the Krav Maga bursting defence against a downward knife stab. Bill Duff was in awe exclaiming that he has never seen this sort of defence in any martial art before but the defence was right out of Wing Chun!! In Wing Chun it would be Fak-Da with stepping in. The “Krav Maga” bursting defence is good to use when you have several attackers coming at you at once. The danger is that you have to drop the attacker with the strike to the throat otherwise he is going to just keep coming in again. I would combine Fak-Da with Jik-Tek aimed at the knee.
