Aggressive ! no stitches , no broken limbs , no blood or KO it was just regular training ;)


Hell in the HK days those dudes would bust each other up, but we have a disease called lawyers and so back to patty cake

This reminds me of those old school Splashing Hands videos... Its too bad Gary Goty didnt make a cameo appearance to get his arse beat.

That guy getting wailed on looked pretty irritated. I think it goes against any fighter's pride to let one's self get beat on without retaliation.

I just love that clip where Gary Lam says something along the lines of "people say that wing chun does not work on the street... well I'll show you..."

That to me is what wing chun is all about...

Just great,

Thanks for posting.. and that is a great website you got there.

Another funny thing in Gary Lam's Dummy video is when he says that the dummy should not be HIT WITH FULL FORCE, like somebody trying to break it.......

Then he calls a instructor or student to demonstrate the form, and he (student) keeps BANGING the dummy, like he should destroy the dummy in front of him.......

IMO that did not look too good. Wing Chun Mok Yan Jong is not a conditioning tool. Is much more than that, should demonstrate SKILL. The conditioning is a side effect, an extra bonus.

Maybe he wasn't hitting it with full force?

Your right that was my Si-hing Greg , he does every thing all out like that , he is just wired that way , Gary would call that pass over power [ meaning your sending out to much , it hampers your recovery and balance , but that was awhile ago , greg has evolved to be a great teacher these days :)

it was a common mistake many of the guys since gary can generate such short burst power , we would all try and mimic it before we understood how to do , by adding in way to much of our own force , growing pains ;)

but a side note most people work the dummy dead in a cold one beat pattern
we do not we start that way but as you get it you mentally spar it staying just ahead of it's recoil as you would against a person flowing in mid counter , but thats another thread :p

That sounds like crazy talk!!! ;)

But cool...At The SAAAME TIIIME.

Kenton ,
think of it a cause and effect , when you send something out , it comes back you should be on your next action [angle, position, hand etc...] before it comes back to your original position
1/2 beat ahead , just like when you fight as you hit there a chance of you being hit , you try and work between those moments

defense is built into the offense , a boxer ,kick boxer thai figher what ever with slip or has a proctected body position as they hit [to a degree] moving 3 things at once hand, leg and body [ we call this hitting on the way to your next position ]

not just sitting there nose to nose trading shots or doing dead motions on a peice of wood just because somebody says so ;)

[Gangsterfist]

The dummy form is about positioning, structure in motion, moving around a stronger opponet, and release. What may seem as an external hard hit to the dummy may actually just be release. When my sifu works the dummy, you can see the whole dummy being effected by his energy right into the center. Its not external pwoer, or force he is using, its short release of relaxed power. There is a difference but sometimes the human eye cannot perceieve that difference.

this is what Gary calls ''pure power '' there are to points it comes from just in the process of arriving there [ some would call it sealling or settling ]
and when leaving flowing off the energy of the recoil
[ as you would a stronger /more stable person ]

good post g-fist

but in the video in question , it was a bit over commited power , camera was rolling and people tend to want to show more then they need to :D

[t_niehoff]

Nice clips. :)

[Ernie]

[IRONMONK]

Gary looks like he can apply and explain his wing chun!!!

I think that's something that just happens...Laf.

Sifu gets the camera out for us to watch ourselves...but when he says he's taping for the internet...

I tend to use my strength than positions and short power.

Ah, well. Ego. :)

**I don't mind folks doing demo's when they also do the "other stuff". ;) It's just the only demo, only explanation, only touch-hands crowd -- the BS shovelers -- that make my @ss twitch.

Laterzzz

Kev

[Ernie]

Kev,

not sure if Gary plans on any more video ? he has not covered the 2 final phases of his system , but i don't think he will let that out , and the only thing left would be forms , and i don't think he would could do that with out busting up laughing i know i couldn't :p
but i guess if people bugged him enough anything is possible ;)

call me we will rap about the po pai stuff , i'm an open book , as for the UK visit i probably couldn't make it , i will be in Hawaii the week before germany so adding another trip might be tough but i'll ask gary .

rap with ya soon bro
