Lawclansman tips for transition?
What Up, Sifu Albright? I am currently learning Northern Mantis/Baji/Bagua/Tai-Chi under the WU TANG lineage and I have been training in these styles for about eight months. I've previously trained in Tae Kwon Do, JKD (little), Boxing and Kenpo. I realize that it is premature to ask this question but I was wondering if you have any tips on how to transition from forms to application to spontaneous setting(ie sparring)? I've noticed over the years that regardless of what style many martial artists revert to or use the kick-box approach in spontaneous settings. I'm having a rough/frustrating time addding the Northern Kung Fu flava and removing my current kick-boxing style. I would greatly appreciate any input you may have. I would also like to add that I really enjoy your website. It is nice to see a website that actually addresses technique and theory.
