David Petersons Mook Yan Jong (MYJ) is a truly phenomenal DVD that takes the neophyte, student, or seasoned
Wing C hung practitioner through the Mook Yan Jong form of Wing C hun as practiced by the King of Talking with the
Hands Wong Shun Leung. The late Sifu Wong modified the MYJ form as taught by Grandmaster Yip Man due to Wongs

numerous challenge fights and conversations with his Sifu Yip Man. This DVD is a meticulous 208 minute study into the
minutest detail of the Wong Shun Leung Mook Yan Jong form. The coverage details the form, presents the MYJ form
from multiple angles for clear visualization of the form; shows examples of the applications, and elaborates on the
insight that the late Sifu Wong Shun Leung gleaned from his numerous challenge fights. This is truly one of the
definitive DVDs presented on the Wong Shun Leung lineage of the Mook Yan Jong form.

David Petersons Mook Yan Jong DVD seminar can be summarized, as he puts it, in one word recovery. It is well
known that Sifu Wong Shun Leung modified the Mook Yan Jong form as he learned the form from Yip Man. The late Sifu
Wong both added and removed techniques as he put his knowledge to the test in his numerous Beimo contests. The
form as shown on the DVD is many techniques longer than Yip Mans and does differ in the presentation of the
techniques.
In Sifu Wong Shun Leung Mook Yan Jong the number of techniques is not important, and the sequence of the
techniques is not important. What is important is that the techniques be practiced at some point during the form. Also
evident as stated by Sifu Peterson is that there are many shades of gray to the specifics of the form. The Mook Yan
Jong from should not be looked at as absolute with regard to the position of the arms and, rather these are
representations of arms and legs that will vary as the practitioner works through the form. Also, at some points within
the from Sifu Peterson shows what had been left out as one goes from technique to technique. This is most evident
when Sifu Peterson shows the wrong Bong Sau.
Sifu Peterson also points out that the late Sifu Wong stressed that one should not stick to the dummys arms, which is
quite different when compared to Yip Man Mook Yan Jong. Sifu Peterson is careful to point out that Sifu Wong readily
acknowledged that he changed when the student was introduced to the Mook Yan Jong and that he, Sifu Wong
modified, as he instructed his students. Indeed when asked by Grandmaster Yip Man why Sifu Wong modified the form
Sifu Wong explained his reasoning behind the modifications directly to Yip Man. However it should not be construed that
Wong Shun Lueng Mook Yan Jong diverges from Yip Man, Wing C hun, but rather approaches the original form with the
knowledge gained from the challenge fights.
To Sifu Wong Shun Leung the wooden dummy was a practice in techniques to be applied when something when a little
wrong, recovery, with a response to or execution of a technique compared to the first two forms of Wing C hun when
execution goes rather well and Biu Jee when something has gone quite wrong. Indeed as one presses further into the
DVD this idea of recovery emerges quite plainly. At each point Sifu Peterson executes the techniques with various
students and again when necessary at different viewpoints to further stress this idea of recovery.
As typical of Sifu Peterson, the approach to the presentation of Sifu Wong Shun Leungs Mook Yan Jong, of the seminar
is demonstrated with painstaking coverage of detail, execution, and most importantly the philosophy behind the idea of
the techniques that lead Sifu Wong to modify the form. One can see that Sifu Wong had justification for ideas on the
Mook Yan Jong. Sifu Peterson elaborates and punctuates each technique with the precision of a surgeon. The MYJ is
also shown from multiple angles with the use of two different Mook Yan Jongs to clarify the presentation of a particular
technique or sequence. Sifu Peterson is the consummate diplomat in stating that Wong Shun Leungs Mook Yan Jong is
not presented to the viewer as being a better Mook Yan Jong form. Instead this is a presentation of the late Sifu Wong
Shun Leungs ideas on the form gained by Sifu Wongs extensive execution of Wing C hun with his Beimo challenge
fights as well as careful analysis and conversations with Grandmaster Yip Man.
This is the third installment in the Sifu David Peterson Wong Shun Leung Wing series. The DVD is over 3 hours in
length. One little note this DVD seminar differs from the others in the series as the entire seminar is contained on one
DVD. It would have been nice to see a bit more practice drills and question and answers sessions. Once again I give

This is a must have video! Peterson breaks down the form step by step explaining the dos and
don't of each move within the form. Peterson conveys the philosophy of the late great Wong Shun

Outstanding presentation from the wsl lineage!

August 22, 2013
Reviewer: Tony Pearson from Garfield Heights, OH United States
Not only does David go into the Jong form, but he explains how wsl interprets the Jong and why.
The form was modified by wsl through actual combat experience. It does not take away anything
from the Ip Man Jong interpretation, but in fact improves upon the idea behind it.

David Peterson- Mook Yan Jong Seminar

May 8, 2012
Reviewer: Rodney P Houldershaw from SYDNEY, n.s.w. Australia
Another excellent DVD from Melbourne Wing Chun & Sifu Peterson . David teaches in a through &
meticulous manner his attention to detail is much appreciated, lots to learn including why the
upper arms on the dummy, should be parrallel, not upper & lower. At over 3 hours this DVD is
highly recommended.

Best Wooden Dummy Video

January 21, 2012
Reviewer: Mark from New York, NY United States
Sifu Peterson breaks down all the principals and apPlications that others don't do so well. He was
a teacher for many years and it shows in his martial arts explanations. I practice different none
Yip Man style but found this DVD extremely useful and better understood my own system. You
really can learn the dummy just from this valuable DVD. I hope the Sifu will produce one day Biu
Jee and awards DVD. While others keep secrets Peterson truly dilivers rare and valuable
knowledge !
