First of all, congratulations on your weight loss, that's a fantastic accomplishment and I wish you all the best in your future health.

It's effin' awesome is what it is. Magic powers!
I study a bit of whooping crane, but am not an expert. I don't think of this technique as chain punching, though. It's more of a rolling bridge/disruption. It might look similar to a wing chun chain...
Completely agree. I was going to type it, but you beat me to it. Love that stuff, feel the same way about Tabasco. Not bad on an oyster, but not my favorite general purpose sauce.
There is a crane technique like that. Hard to say based on your description if that's what you are referring to.
This is interesting. Somehow I had not heard of or seen Systema before, but I like it, especially the 2nd guy. We have a lot of Russians in Seattle, I wonder if anyone is doing this out here?
I remember looking at videos from other lineages on-line years ago when I first learned the jong. At the time, I thought they were all completely different, unrecognizable.
I looked again last...
My view on wing chun is that is starts out very restrictive, but gets much less so as it goes. 1st form, you don't move your feet and you learn to perform the isolated techniques without shifting or...
I'm not exactly sure how much I have paid. Any seminars I have taken have seemed almost trivial in cost. But travel and accommodations are a whole other story. I have and will spend money to go to...
Thank you all for your replies. Of course it makes sense that I should strive to be equally comfortable either way.

Thanks for the responses, I appreciate the perspective. I learned it left hand back, but in my mind, always intended to practice it both ways. I noticed recently that most people seem to do it left...
I don't post often, but I know there are some very credible Wing Chun sources here when I do want some broader perspective and I do have a question/observation about the staff form. I really...
Not me, but thanks for sharing the video.
Love Oliver Sacks.
Thank you to everyone who had replied so far.
Thank you, Keith.
Okay, I wasn't looking for entertainment so much as discussion, but I'll look forward to your insights as well as others, when you are ready to share them.
I will say, for my own part, that I...
I appreciate your enthusiasm. Do you have any perspectives on this particular expression?
Hey guys, I haven't posted here in quite a while, but was training this morning with a few of our guys and we were picking through this form in excruciating detail. We started talking about the step...
What does that principle mean? Interested in understanding.
I have copy somewhere too, I'll go to that point and check it out and then I have someone who I can ask.
But, the story of this documentary is around Chinese ex-pats in Malaysia who have unique...
Great movie.
I don't know about that, but I'm too sexy for my shirt.
Yes, Joy. I agree. Though I know there are hands vs feet that can work, it still makes me nervous every time. Would prefer not to end up in that situation if possible.
Someone may know better than me, but when I see "southern" and "Tiger/Crane" together, then I think "Hung Gar".
However when I see someone teaching a broad range of traditional styles, then I...
