Since wewere living in the same neighborhood,he knew I was with Bruce Lee s LosAngeles China-Town group. Randy oftencame up to me and begged me to teachhim, but I refused. We did not crosspaths again until many years later. Sincethen, we have forged a strong friendshipand sharing our knowledge in the mar-tial art always considered Sifu RandyWilliams one of the most dedicated andresourceful wing Chun Gung Fuinstructors in the field.

5 His knowledgeand technical skills are exceptional. Hepreviously authored six volumes ofbooks on wing Chun Gung Fu, TheExplosive Art of CLOSE RANGE COMBAT , which contain some of the most precise,accurate, and detailed materials ever written in the subject of wing ChunGung Fu. Its theory, techniques, and method of training are well pre-sented. The wing Chun centerline theory, an important fighting strategyon the proper angle, body alignment, and balance in attack and defense,and Chi Sau practice, a unique feature in the system for developing sensi-tivity in the arms and the constant flow of energy, so crucial in CLOSE -rangecombat, are explained in Randy Williams is known for his generosity, especially when itcomes to sharing his martial art experience and knowledge, which is defi-nitely reflected in his books. This book will help any wing Chun practi-tioner who wishes to acquire a more in-depth and better understanding inthe art of wing Chun Gung Fu.

6 Ted Wongix RWBook1 8/19/04 1:55 PM Page ix RWBook1 8/19/04 1:55 PM Page xxiIntroductionThank you for takingthe time to look at thisbook. The series CloseRange COMBAT WingChun, Volumes I to III isthe latest attempt on mypart to capture and ana-lyze certain aspects ofWing Chun Gung Fu inwritten form. After muchpainstaking research,many hours of writing,typing, editing, and pho-tography sessions, theresult lies before you. Ihope that you find it tobe among the most com-prehensive studies onthese aspects of the sys-tem available today. Ofcourse, there may beomissions or subjectsthat might not be delvedinto as deeply as possible, but I have tried to at least briefly touch upon allaspects of wing Chun basics, COMBAT technique and Wooden Dummy the-ory somewhere within this latest series of books, which contain muchupdated information from my previous book series.

7 No one volume in itselfis complete but each relies on cross-referenced information from the othersto avoid repetition. If anything has been left out or written in error, it is onlydue to my limited knowledge of wing Chun Gung Fu, and not to anyinconsistency or intrinsic error of the system must completely credit my first instructor, Sifu George Yau Chu ofHong Kong and all others with whom I have trained for all of the valuableknowledge that they have passed on to me. I do not even consider myselfto be among the most highly skilled of their many students and as such, Iam not claiming that the structure of the techniques and forms picturedwithin the series is anywhere in the same league with my instructors or my RWBook1 8/19/04 1:55 PM Page xiseniors, whether they be students of my own teachers or of any otherworldwide wing Chun organization. The fighting techniques that I havechosen to illustrate the practical applications in each volume are strictlymy owninterpretation of the concepts and principles of wing Chun GungFu.

8 I refer to this interpretation as CLOSE RANGE COMBAT Academy WingChun, and it is this version of the style that is taught in my own interna-tional organization, which is not affiliated with any other wing Chungroup. CRCA wing Chun is not necessarily representative of Sifu GeorgeYau, nor do I claim it to be representative of any other instructor withwhom I have trained. With this new series of books, I only hope to clarifycertain misconceptions about my art as compared to other forms of thestyle and to provide a comprehensive training manual for those who areinterested in the CRCA system of wing Chun Gung Fu, but are unable toobtain qualified instruction in their area. I also hope that wing Chun stu-dents of all branches will be able to compare impartially what they havelearned with what I have gathered on the system and appreciate its differ-ences without necessarily agreeing with have freely used my own commonsense and experience to help me derive cer-tain applications and principles of the sys-tem that are not as obvious as others, andto use these to help me deal with moderncombat situations not encountered andtherefore not considered by the founders ofthe system.

9 As in all other forms of scienceand technology, I believe that wing Chunmust move forward. The inventors of thesystem never had to consider COMBAT many modern or non-Chinese arts thata fighter may encounter today, such as ThaiBoxing, Shootfighting, Brazilian Jiu Jitsuand Russian Sambo to name but a few. Inthe past, certain acknowledged ancestorsmade additions and improvements to thesystem, and it is my belief that the systemwill have to be continually modified andupgraded in order to keep pace with today sever-changing COMBAT technology. My own view of what is important inWing Chun can at times be very differentfrom many other traditional Gung Fuinstructors. Although I certainly appreciateThe author as a young man with his teacher, Sifu George Yau RWBook1 8/19/04 1:55 PM Page xiixiiiand respect the history of wing Chun and the importance of its lineage asit is handed down from generation to generation, I am personally moreconcerned with the more tangible aspects of skill, knowledge and perform-ance.

10 In other words, I respect my elders and seniors in the system, but Ido not necessarily believe that when someone began their study or withwhom they study is the primary criteria for their ranking or status in a sys-tem. Instead, I look at the person s skill level, ability to explain their sys-tem in detail and most importantly their ability to perform. In otherwords, I take a more practical approach almost an American sports atti-tude. For example, if one looks at the game of football, it will be noted thatmost fans probably do not care who taught Jerry Rice to catch a football,that Jerry Rice may not know the entire history of football, nor that hemay not have a genealogy of all of the players by which it was passeddown to him from the founders of the game. What isimportant to mostfans, though, is that he is one of the best (if not thebest) Wide Receiversof all time.
