Kickboxing and Sanda at Siu Lam Wing Chun:
Dynamic martial arts diversity
Kickboxing and Sanda are dynamic aspects of Siu Lam Wing Chun that combine traditional and modern martial arts elements. Kickboxing combines techniques from Karate, Muay Thai, Western Boxing and Kung Fu to form a martial art that not only enhances physical fitness and self-defense skills, but also improves endurance, strength and flexibility. This practice emphasizes fast footwork, strong punches and powerful kicks while upholding the principles of discipline, respect and self-control.
Sanda, often referred to as “Chinese boxing” or “free fighting”, is a form of traditional Chinese martial arts that integrates modern competitive elements. It combines punching and kicking techniques from boxing and kickboxing with grappling, throws and wrestling techniques from kung fu. This martial art is often practiced in competition and offers comprehensive training in various fighting techniques that are applied in a ring using boxing gloves.
In the practice of Siu Lam Wing Chun, kickboxing and Sanda expand the spectrum of martial arts techniques and promote a versatile fighting ability. Both forms are an integral part of the training program and offer effective techniques in both sporting and self-defense contexts. The integration of these combat sports into Siu Lam Wing Chun enables practitioners to develop a broader technical base and adapt to a variety of combat situations.
