:D
Seems a shame. From what I remember there was plenty of other stuff could've been edited instead!!
I have many of them. Quality of filming varied quite a bit. Generally the YC seminar tapes had the worst audio & fiming. About the same quality as the VTAA cd's.
"Original WC" is great however. The...
Not really. Different people based themselves in different continents for starters. Then they have different criteria for who they let teach in their name.
Keep in mind how long Yip Ching's...
IMO, rather than rules, there are consequences. Too far & the side is exposed, the arm is in danger, easier for the opponent to pass the elbow etc. In a particular situation, depending on what's...
& if anyone's coming to NC to 'visit', let me know & I'll drive up to watch impartially!
<sound of crickets chirping>
If I remember rightly, from repeated watching of the video some time back, there are times while he shifts that just the toes are moving (so we can assume heel shift), and bits where both heels &...
Slim pickings around Raleigh. Haven't met anyone I'd recommend, The Raleigh school lineage sounds correct from what I've heard.
FYI "Warriors Two".
Bye Hendrik. Hope to read you some more in the future!
I suspect so too. The guy with the white T-shirt did a few of the 'William Cheung patented entry techniques' & went for the outside gate wherever he could. He spent a lot of time on the outside...
Consider, however that the opponent will face similar problems.
The difference is that WC practices for short range power more than most other styles. If they withdraw their hand further to get more...
Personally I'd disagree with this. There'll most likely be a few adaptations - more kicks & long range strikes due to the frequent lack of serious attacks in this kind of sparring event, but someone...
I've seen some single cross-hand sticking drills from Goju, I believe.
Sure. There used to be a bunch of folk that stood that way. Even with articles in magazines. I think they'd seen pictures of Yip Man with what looked like a backward lean & hips forward and got it a...
That's just so 1970's wing chun!
Well, it's as 'real' as anything given that's what people called him through most of his life. But I understand he was originally called Gei Man if that helps.
The easiest is to let your opponent do it for you. When they move forward to attack, rather than retreating, stay where you are, move to the flank or a little forward too. The problem then becomes...
LOL!
LOL!! No doubt the prediliction for discourse valuation towards the extant social power structure decries a situational critique. Perhaps a self-referential requirement to thread analysis would...
Aren't evolution and development Modern concepts?
The taper brings the pole's center of gravity closer to the hands, allowing for quicker movement & more control without reaching your hand out further. It gets the same effect of a narrower or...
While I've seen the MYJ taught earlier than BJ, assuming knowledge of just the 3 forms......
1. That's a question best put to individual instructors. Hopefully they teach new information when it...
Anything related to the topic is evidence, so yes. It alone wouldn't be considered 'proof' by a long stretch, but it is certainly interesting. At least to me.
