Anyone know why some of Yip Man's students roll their hands over each other akin to mainland branches and others (including Yip Man himself from what I can tell) simply cross their hands down and then up to "define the centerline"? It doesn't appear that Yip Man himself ever rolled his hands, even in his early Foshan teachings, if we go by pupils like Kwok Fu.
Branches that roll:
Leung Sheung (Except for Kenneth Chung's people from the '80s onward I believe)
Ho Kam Ming
Leung Ting (learned partially from Leung Sheung)
Chow Tze Chuen
Ip Ching for Chum Kiu and Biu Jee but not Siu Nim Tau
Branches that don't:
Just about everyone else from what I can tell
