The next movement is called cutting hand, from the double barrier hand, sink elbows, keep wrists there, go forward.

Or it can be double Jam sau, sinking arm, which will be introduced later in the form.

There were all directions downwards forces, and there were left-right whipping forces, then back to forward again. This is the first time that tells us, don’t withdraw your arm/hand when you are pointing the wrong direction (not pointing at the opponent), just sink the elbow, align the structure, and then punch forward. When we talk about the second form, there will be more to extend, to discuss. Here in the first form, nothing is important than forward.

Then we do rolling hands, clockwise, anti-clockwise; those tiny movements are easy to ignore, but these exercises can be really important when we combine them with whole body movement. The first rolling hand can also be interpreted as double Tan sao, spreading hand, a very basic version of it, we will extend it in the next section of the form. The second rolling hand will be used in a palm strike or a horizontal punch, which will be practicsed in the single sticky hand drill; no movements are wasted.

After two rolling hands, our central area of chest is now exposed, so we do jerking/dragging hand, Jat sao to recover back, it’s called dragging, but it’s actually not. Because our arms are attached to our shoulders, the jerking action has to be somewhat withdrawn; we do not invite our opponent to attack us, and we also do not push down for now.

After the jerking action, we are compressed, or because of the shoulder joints, we are somewhat withdrawn a little bit, so next we thrust fingers, or biu jee, the name of the third form of Ving Tsun; however, DO NOT think about eye-thrusting, this is not for it, the reason why there is movement called thrust finger, it’s that fingers are leading the way, are telling you, go forward, even far beyond the target, since the previous action a litttle bit retracted, this is tell you to fully release, penetrate the opponent！

Then our arms are fully extended, and the middle part of the body, our abdomen level is exposed, so we press down, rotate our shoulder joints, and the whole arms recover downwards, then the chest level is exposed, we rebound, recover back. That’s the whole idea: when you cover one side, the other is exposed. So never just try to cover somewhere. In applications, the pressing down hand can be used for sudden attacks to the abdomen area, the rebounding hand will just be a punch, unlike in form, we train the intention of lifting.

That’s almost everything about section two, for now.
