Imagine That the Second You Make Contact
With An Opponent, You Knew INSTANTLY
What He Was Going To Do

From: Phil Bradley
Subject: "Volume 3: Chi-sau" of the AWCA eBook Training Series

Dear Wing Chun/ Ving Tsun/ Wing Tsun friends and colleagues,

ll Wing Chun practitioners feel that Chi-sau is important, which is an understatement. The methods, movements, and concepts of Wing Chun are definitely effective, but what makes them effective are the Chi-sau concepts.

Without Chi-sau, everything we do would be considered a mechanical reaction rather than "automatic". And that is exactly what Chi-sau is all about: putting yourself on "auto-pilot" so that when a situation occurs, you do not even have to think about it. Instead, you just do it.

Chi-sau, or "Sticking-hands," is the act of training the arms how to immediately determine the direction and power of an attack once contact is made. Knowing what the opponent is doing before the attack fully executes allows us to "cut off" the attack in mid-action. In this way, the attack is intercepted before it completes with full power.

In essence, the opponent is "telling" us what he is doing.

There are a few good publications on the market that illustrate what Chi-sau is about, as well as a few others that take you through some of its training. None of them, however, take you beyond a very basic level. Why? Because they do not want to release their "secrets."

For just a moment, though, let's be realistic.

If you took all of the websites currently available, plus all of the videos on YouTube, Google Video, etc., you could almost re-construct the Wing Chun system - including Chi-sau - in its entirety. There is really no mystery to it, and anyone with the time available can do it.

The real problem is, do you have that much time?

Introducing "Volume 3: Chi-sau"

"Volume 3: Chi-sau" takes the guesswork out of your training by delivering a fully progressive curriculum in Chi-sau, Lap-sau, and Chi-gerk. I will show you exactly how to train these programs step-by-step, what to look for, the key points for making them work, and the concepts and theories "behind" the actions that are happening.

Combining the three primary distance learning methods of videos, photos, and text, Volume 3 takes you by the hand throughout each element of training in a quick and logically-progressive format.

"Volume 3: Chi-sau" includes FOUR COMPLETE EBOOKS (digital only vs. a physical product), each including their own series of videos, photos, drills, and comprehensive concepts/theories sections.



Part 1: Chi-dan-sau
"Single-arm Sticking-hand" Curriculum
"Part 1: Chi-dan-sau" introduces you to the world of Sticking-hands. Here you will learn how to position your arm for interpreting the many actions that result in attacks and defenses, as well as the footwork used for absorbing and deflecting force.

Part 2: Chi-sheung-sau

"Part 2: Chi-sheung-sau" continues your Chi-sau training by introducing the double-arm curriculum. From basic rolling to rolling with force, from stepping to the seven primary attacks and defenses, Chi-sheung-sau is the epitome of taking your Wing Chun skills to the next level.

Based On Approved Distance Learning Guidelines
True learning resources must be approached from the viewpoint of the learner, not the writer. Therefore, professionally-certified distance learning educators were consulted to provide guidance on the format and to ensure consistency throughout the workbook.

Instructional System Design (ISD)
In addition to approved distance learning guidelines and principles, the entire format is driven from the foundation of Instructional System Design (ISD). This is the same logical foundation that programmers use when creating applications that require step-by-step progression from section-to-section.

"Volume 3: Chi-sau" goes where no other Chi-sau related publication has gone before by bringing you the full core curriculum in its teachings. Instead of "bits and pieces," your training is the actual core material from which everything else is derived.

In fact, let me share with you just a small sample of real comments from real customers of "Volume 3: Chi-sau". These are just brief examples of what I continuously receive. Practitioners love their workbook that much!

Not Enough? Here's MORE!

"Finally: REAL Chi-sau training for everyone!"

Terrence L.
Quincy, MA

 

"Thanks for such a great training experience."

Jon H.
Boise, ID

 

"Totally awesome training!"

Quinton P.
San Jose, CA

 

"Can you come to New Mexico and teach?"

Barret J.
Los Lunas, NM

 

"Wow! What a truly enlightening session!"

Patrick S.
United Kingdom

 

"The 'standard' that others should follow"

William B.
Sydney, Australia

 

Not only have users of "Volume 3: Chi-sau" seen first-hand how easy it is to use their workbooks, but they have also seen how easy it is to incorporate the lessons learned into their training sessions. And imagine the excellent practitioners that some of us will get to train with one day because of it?

For experienced practitioners who are already versed in Chi-sau, now they have a step-by-step training curriculum to also use for their own students. They now have access to a logical program of training that will assist them with dissecting what is happening, "how" it is happening, and "why."

In short, whether you are new or experienced in Chi-sau, "Volume 3: Chi-sau" is for everybody.

But like other publications in our eBook Training Series, I want to be honest and upfront with you by saying that

This Program Is NOT For Everyone!

"Volume 3: Chi-sau" was created for those that actually want to train and learn what Chi-sau, Lap-sau, and Chi-gerk are all about. It is for those who are serious about their training and want to make a difference by learning the skill sets vs. talking about them. Therefore:

If living in front of the television is your idea of training? This workbook is not for you.

 

If you think watching a few videos vs. actually training the drills will magically create a skill set? This workbook is not for you.

 

If you are one of those YouTube or GoogleVideo "keyboard warriors" that trash talks everyone instead of getting out there and doing it yourself? This workbook is definitely not for you.

 

If you think you will breeze through Wing Chun without putting any effort into it and working until you are exhausted? Again, this workbook is not for you.

In other words, if you are not ready to make a concerted effort in your training, then do not expect a skill set to "magically appear." Like everything else that involves physical movement, Wing Chun - and particularly Chi-sau - requires work. And a lot of it!

So if you are of the mindset that "reading" about Chi-sau will create the skill, then you are in the wrong place because Volume 3 will do nothing for you.

But if you are ready to get involved and really explore what Chi-sau and Lap-sau is all about, then you came to the right place, because "Volume 3: Chi-sau" is the real deal.

Isn't it time that YOU experienced this training for yourself? And to make it even better, I am including a few time-limited FREE resources so that you can get the most out of your training efforts.

Bonus #1: "How To Train Wing Chun"
(Value: $24.95)

How To Train Wing Chun

Originally created for my personal students, I decided to make this special eBook report available to customers of our eBook Training Series to further your training efforts.

Chapters include:

  • "The Five Stages of Learning" - Understanding the five stages of learning and how to take a simple process for applying it to any level of training.
  • "Forms Training" - Forms training is more than just mimicing what you see; instead, there are a variety of elements that can help you get the most from your efforts if you know about them. And with this chapter, you will.
  • "Specialized Training" - Utilizing Chi-sau, Lap-sau, and Chi-gerk during sparring sessions.
  • "Creating Power" - Still having problems generating the kind of jack-hammer hitting power you know you should be? That will be a thing of the past after working through this chapter.
  • "Staying Relaxed" - Wing Chun requires a calm, relaxed, "explosive" nature in order to deliver our fighting methods. Here you will learn how to remain relaxed throughout your rigorous training and sparring sessions.
  • "Reality vs. Classroom" - Many have approached their training from an unrealistic viewpoint, working dangerous and unworkable actions in the gym and "thinking" it will work in real life. In this chapter, I will show you how to keep your training at a realistic level so that you do not fall into the trap of training something in a way that can see you hurt when you really need it.

 

Bonus #2: Email Training Support
(Value: $250.00)

Have a question about your training? Not entirely sure if you are on the right path? No problem! Send me an email (via the exclusive email ID you will receive after purchase) and I will offer assistance to ensure that you get the most out of your training.

 

Bonus #3: Special Discounts on Future AWCA eBooks and Services
(Value: $5.00 - $10.00 per product, for EVERY new product)

Your purchase guarantees that you are placed on my EXCLUSIVE Gold Customers-Only list, which is notified immediately when new eBooks and services are made available. This list is never rented, sold, leased, or even SEEN by anyone other than myself.

I always offer special discounts to my Gold Customers list approximately 72 hours prior to any eBook or service being made available, giving everyone the opportunity of not only being the first in the WC/ VT/ WT communities for getting things first, but saving some serious money along the way.

In other words, others will pay full price, but YOU will get phenomenal training resources at a reduced rate.

Valued at over $275.00, this entire package by itself would normally drive any product or publication through the roof. But right with your purchase of "Volume 3: Chi-sau", it is all yours... ABSOLUTELY FREE!

And Just When You Thought It Could
Not Get Any Better...
THINK AGAIN!

Wing Chun practitioners can be pretty finicky with their training media, and rightly so. Many of us have been duped by books or videos promising something, only later to learn that they do not deliver even half of what they promised. And in the end, it makes us all a bit "gun shy" about purchasing anything again unless we can see it right up front first.

That is why I am taking all of the risk out of your purchase - right here, right now - with my

How Much Is It?

It is no secret that I have spent a small fortune during the creation and development for the eBook Training Series, and "Volume 3: Chi-sau" is by far the most laborious and expensive. From writing, editing, filming, and working all of the programs into approved distance learning guidelines, the amount of time and money for this project has far surpassed any volume to date.

Market research clearly indicated that this type of training media should sell for a minimum of $160.00, and that would be a bargain itself. However, my personal philosophy is that Wing Chun training should be available for everyone, without breaking their bank accounts.

So you will not see it for $160.00. In fact, you will not even see it for $120.00, $100.00, or even $50.00. Right now, you can experience Wing Chun's phenomenal Chi-sau training curriculum for only

$34.95

Click here to get started

Yes, you read that right. For only $34.95, you receive the entire Chi-sau training package that you have been reading about.

Now, I know that some of you might be asking "Why so inexpensive?" You are glad it is, but it is still a question, right? Well, the answer is pretty simple: What good does a training resource do if it is so expensive that only a few could ever afford it?

My view is that quality training should be available to everyone, and I refuse to take advantage of my Wing Chun colleagues by making things so expensive that you have to save up forever just to acquire it (and in today's economy around the world, we can all do with some savings, right?)

That is why you are seeing "Volume 3: Chi-sau" at the very affordable of price of only $34.95, and it includes every single bonus, benefit, and feature you have seen here. Nothing is left out and it is presented in its entirety.


Normally I would say, "You could spend hundreds of dollars - as well as countless hours - on other products and still NOT find the level of training available that Volume 3: Chi-sau provides."

But I cannot really say that, because quite frankly, it just does not exist anywhere else, no matter how hard you look!

If you are tired of wasting your valuable time, effort, and money searching the Internet and still only finding "bits and pieces" of useful information, then you owe it to yourself to work with a REAL training program. You deserve nothing less than the absolute best, and that is "Volume 3: Chi-sau".

To your training success,
