    The footwork mostly is to support the actions of your arms and legs and to co-ordinate with the techniques that you are applying. Wing Chun has only a few basic steps, turning steps, to chase, triangle forward and back and shocking step, etc.

    To answer your questions, no we don't drag the back foot, instead, we push forward with the back foot to give you the power. When you drag the back foot you are putting too much weight on your front foot. Another thing, we only turn on our heels, not the balls of the foot.
