	Midlands Wing Chun Kuen - Hong Kong Wing Chun in the UK
		Chum Kiu, known as the seeking the bridge form, is Wing Chun's second or intermediate form and is the natural progression after learning Siu Nim Tao.
		Chum Kiu training increases the power developed within Siu Nim Tao, so it is vital that sufficient level of understanding and proficiency has been developed in Siu Nim Tao, before Chum Kiu training commences.
		Additionally, Kicking techniques are introduced and practised within Chum Kiu; defensively to intercept an attacker's kicks or to bridge the gap at a lower level; offensively to attack an opponent's legs and stance.

	chum kiu
		Without the understanding of Chum Kiu many Wing Chun practitioners resort back to brute strength, which wanes as they grow older, unlike those who are able to utilise the keys of Chum Kiu, and find their proficiency increases with time.
		Chum Kiu can also be looked on as the 'bridge' between the hand motions of the first form, and the emergency motions of the third form.
		Without proper application of Chum Kiu the hand motions of SLT are less effective, and the regaining of centreline techniques of Biu Jee negated.

		Chum Kiu is often translated as Bridging The Gap, and is an important aspect, for anybody wishing to become proficient at this art, to achieve.
		Chum Kiu opens in the same way as Siu Lim Tau, with the definition of centre-line, single punch etc. We then move on to defining different fighting ranges through adoption of extending the arms together through short, medium and long range hand/arm shapes.
		Once Chum Kiu has been performed, and committed to memory, it becomes apparent that the bridging techniques are invariably used in combination with stance work of some kind, whether it is turning or stepping.
