Chum Kiu is the second of three open-hand forms of Wing Chun Kung Fu.It builds upon many of the basic principles and techniques learned in the first Wing Chun open-hand form, Siu Lim Tao.
After completion of the Siu-Nim-Tau, a practitioner graduates to the Chum-Kiu, or "Arm-Seeking" form. In this curriculum, we learn the principles of "seeking out" the opponent's bridge arms, as well as intermediate principles for turning, angling, kicking, and using the elbows.
Also during this phase of training, a practitioner will graduate to Chi-sheung-sau, or "Double-arm Sticking-hands", as well as Lap-sau and Lat-sau training.
