I agree she's got some good torque, but she's not using it. It's actually slowing her down. She's got potential, but someone stronger than her could definitely overpower her.

Against anyone. That doesn't mean that you can beat the tar out of anyone. But up against someone of higher skill, you might be putting up a decent defense. You'll still get beat, but keeping...
You simply ask yourself, "Is it working for you?"
There is a counter and a prevention for everything, but if the opponent is a better fighter than you, all you can do is get by and get the heck out of there.
In time, your chi sau experience will...
Some do practice the dummy too close; some too far. It all comes down to what you can get away with.
The key is in the word "art". The system of Wing Chun has many kicks, but the "art" of Wing Chun has only one kick.
Talk of Kung Fu Family is just a way of saying "Please pay us and take our B.S."
"Missing out on your disfunctional upbringing? Feeling nostalgia for that "tough love"? Join our Traditional...
CK arm break1 - pretty form, but arm break ain't happening anytime, not even a setup for an arm break.
CK arm break2 - bong's are a good set up for arm break
CK arm break3 - same as above.
CK arm...
Roy Sifu runs Centerline Martial Arts Systems in Toronto. If you know him, you should visit him the next time you're in Toronto. Sifu Roy is quite open with his knowledge, as I'm sure you know.
Matrix I think you and I are speaking from different perspectives; you from the student perspective, and me from the teacher perspective. You're right, you as a student should not be concerned about...
Since you've been doing WC for such a long time and are familiar with the myriad factions of WC, which amount to 2, according to you; you of all people should know that the lineage does not define...
Phil,
I didn't mean "challenge him" in an UltimateWingChun way. I just mean if you were to ever have an exchange with him - chi sau, sparring, fighting, I don't think you would be saying he's...
The progress happens each time we train. And the student needs to know this as it is happening, so that he doesn't follow blindly, so he can actually use what he has learned as he learns it. We...
What is wrong with needing to feel a progression? A student should always be progressing. If a student doesn't understand how he/she is progressing then, again, that is the fault of the teacher. ...
But whose fault is this really? If this is what is happening, the student is not to blame here; it's the teacher. If this is happening, it is because the teacher himself has little concept of what...
I've met Edwin Tam, myself. He's a professor at the university. Biggest chinese man I've ever met, big in height and build. Explains things very scientifically, very knowledgeable. Not sure where...
Liddel,
Perfect.
You can't do without advanced.... Without advanced concepts one is just a practioner executing basics. 1, 2, 3, 4, is great. They're numbers, they're pretty numbers. Lovely numbers. Look at the...
The problem I see in most demonstrations, is that the opponent, the supposed "threat" is not presenting a threat at all. The 2nd problem is that the supposed threats are in Wing Chun form, i.e. the...
I disagree. I feel labelling is important. It gives the practitioner of where they are at, and what they should be striving for in their Wing Chun. Obviously when it comes to the fight, wherever...
1. I won't answer that question, but I definitely won't confine it to one thing. Having a solid horse is not the be all of kung fu.
2. True at a basic level, but not at advanced.
3. That can...
There can't be one basic, that is not the essence of kung fu. Thinking in these terms is what gets WC practitioners screwed. The essence of kung fu is not in two dimensional thinking and absolutes....
Just make sure you have really good posture and stance when hitting the wall bag. Don't forget there's no give on it, like a heavy bag. Punch lightly, but with a tight tight fist or you'll get...
I would have to say that Wing Chun, by most standards, will work immaculately against an idiot fighter.
Why did you purchase a wall bag? In your mind what purpose does it serve you?
