Traditional Martial Arts, Self Defense training, and Sport Combat…all 3 have overlap and yet all 3 have distinctions.
I say train all 3 for max benefit. What do you train???
CRANE & COBRA Close Combat
Private and semi-private sessions! First class is free! Private sessions will advance the student at a much faster rate of proficiency.
Self Protection in Pierce County, WA. 👊 Certified Hill Wing Chun Sifu and certified Black belt🥋in blended/mixed martial arts: Kickboxing, JKD, FMA, Eskrima, Silat, BJJ, Boxing, and Libre Knife Fighting 🔪
“Train like an athlete - Fight like a criminal”
Forms and wooden dummy work could have clinching and grappling principles. Wing Chun is more than just a fighting style…it is a set of physical principles based on human anatomy and movement. We must learn to think outside the box and beyond the mook yan jong! 🧠 💡
Economy of motion 💥 Great fighters learn to flow!
The 8 slashing knives of Wing Chun 🔪 Baat Jam Dao 🔪
Obviously in real life the knives I carry are a bit smaller and I don’t twirl them around but I believe training should have many aspects and Fun is one of them! 😃 If the brain and body are having fun the material is learned more readily 🧠 💡
Never underestimate another person⚠️ Old guys whoop up on bikers 🏍️💥

After the Black belt🥋test was completed ✅

I passed another Black Belt🥋test this weekend! 👊 💥 🎉
The test ran from 12 noon to about 5:30pm 👀 and was a mixture of demonstrating proficiency in many different martial arts styles and in showing grit and endurance during the grueling physical parts. It was difficult on purpose. From showing our skills in multiple mixed arts to running a mile, sparring all the instructors, grappling all the instructors, a Pankration round, doing Muay Thai rounds, getting Muay Thai heavy kicked in the legs 🤕, and finally staying in horse stance for 20+ minutes…congrats to all those that genuinely earned this belt 🥋!!!
This test was the culmination of years of learning and application and the end of very specific black belt candidacy training that ran from April through August at Barner’s Blue Dragons.
Special thanks to all the instructors for helping show us the way, and to George, my training partner, and of course to Shihan Daniel Barner.
🙏 🙏 🙏
Looking forward to official graduation and belt presentation and my martial art future! 🤜💨
Connectivity, Sticking hands, Limb Control help STIFLE the opponent’s Force‼️ 🤔 Unorthodox but Effective. It is interesting to note Roberto Duran, another boxing champ and GOAT like Foreman also sometimes fought this way. 👀
Martial art styles like Wing Chun, Jeet Kune Do, Silat, and Kali use similar tactics too⚠️ But they can also elbow, knee, kick, trip, choke, joint lock, and throw⚠️ 💥 💥

I use this successfully in sparring often. Definitely one to add to your toolbox 🧰 🥊 💥
