I've never done push hands before. I thought I understood what it was but now I'm sure I don't.

I know the creator of Gin Soon Tai Chi is from the Yang Tai Chi branch.... Those so call "push hands" look more like
"Da Lu or Ta Lu" kind of ... but man... I don't know about those demo's..... LOL :D

I dont know if i should laugh or cry, ill probarly do both but i havent quite decided in what order yet.:(

I have heard from a lot of independant sources that I have respect for that Master Chu is a very skilled and powerful Internalist, but this stuff makes him look a complete tw.at. The guy who was being demo'd on needs his face filling in for such ponsie, gay over reacting that looks more a home on a Monty python sketch.:rolleyes:

[wingchunner]

... I will.

They suck.

I have so far only heard good things about Vincent Chu, but I am not sure how to tie those demoes in with what I have heard.
:confused: :confused:

I'm thinking that they are making fun of their own club and you americans with your famous lack of a sophisticated sense of humour missed the point.





P.S Irony, despite past claims of people on this site does not mean "a bit like iron".

I am not so sure about that. I can't imagine an MA school taking the p!ss out of themselves on their own website, especially if the teacher is supposed to bu quite respected and/or you are trying to attract students.

this is clearly jumping, watch b4 the jump as they push into the ground

A chinese master taking the pi.ss out of himself??? Come on mate on what planet is that ever likely to happen!!

[jun_erh]

I had no idea. So they are stupid?

On another site I have seen the same clips. It seems that many of the same comments are posted here as well.

I think something more usefule then just saying it’s fake would be for some one here duplicate what’s shown in the clips, or provide a good explanation on how it was done.


It might also be usfule to remember it's a demo with people of very differnt skill levels.
