If you want to learn Wing Chun, this page is a good starting point to help you with your journey. But, the best way to learn is by finding a Wing Chun school and taking a class. This is because Wing Chun is a martial art that requires physical contact to learn and understand the style. It’s also a good way to help you decide whether Wing Chun is right for you. There are no substitutes for an actual Wing Chun instructor.
I have provided a list of resources that may help you along with your current Wing Chun training. This is a growing list and I will add to it as I find more quality learning material.

Please do not spend any money unless you feel you really need it and will help you reach your goals.
Videos
- Ip Man: The movie that sparked my interest in Wing Chun. A must watch for any Wing Chun fanatic!
- The China Boxer: Great videos on Wing Chun applications. Each video is very informative and definitely worth checking out. Some of the material covered in the videos may be a bit more advanced.
- Sifu Chuck O’Neill’s Video Courses: Instructional video courses for each open hand form and Chi Sao. Sifu Chuck goes into great details to help make sure people understand each technique, application, or drill. Each video is usually an hour long with exceptions to each forms applications and drills which are even longer. Read my review here.
