SIU NIM TAO GRADING
The UK Wing Chun Kung Fu Assoc. runs classes based on ability. To proceed to the next level the students must pass tests. We have an extensive grading syllabus. It is a real challenge to take on these gradings. If successful the students are awarded a report sheet and certificate. The Siu Nim Tao grading is the grade that all students wish to attend. This is because after this there are no compulsory gradings and a student can move on t become a member of the Instructor Training programme.

Here is a short video that discusses some 'potential' uses for the Pau Bong 'Casting Bong' of the #wingchun #chamkiu 3rd section.![]()
![]()
The Pau Bong is used a little more indiscriminately in an attempt to catch something. Think of it like a fishing net being thrown out. ![]()
![]()
The high elbow of a Bong Sau is both a strength and weakness in the Art. The space it creates can be so useful, but can also be used against you. Something we are sure you are all aware of.![]()
![]()
This once again is only a short clip from a far longer discussion. As such it may bring up more questions or arguments. As these were like discussed in the full 30minute video we will not enter into discussions.![]()

We have to say we have noticed a large upturn in people watching our videos. Whilst gratifying to see, it would be appreciated if you chose to follow the UKCKFA or simply like the videos. Don't be shy, we only bite at close range, and you guys are in front of screens!!!![]()
