the up-parry occurs 1st, followed by the slip & straight punch. although in my 1st kung fu style, we would actually used the slip 1st followed by an uppercut to the arm (using the "slipping" hand as...
i went over the book, and i just don't see any pushing of political agenda, overt Taiwan favoring or veiled racism toward non-chinese...
he did note his difficulty in bridging cultural barriers...
dude, what for?!? ;)
just to be clear, i never said Adam Hsu's word should be taken as "gospel". i do believe that he is generally well-respected. if i recall correctly there were members on this forum that made his...
much appreciated! always good to get new perspective on things.:D
really? i didn't get any of that 'veiled racism' when i read it. could you point out some passages while i try to dig that book out of my closet.
in terms of usage, i'm sure most here if not all have read widely respected author, Adam Hsu's book The sword-polisher's record. there's a chapter where he tries to describe kung fu and it's...

i do still get together with my former classmates from judo...
i'm not in the habit of posting my fav strategies/tactics :p.
yeah, i'm sure i can pull it off... but i'm also sure that my methods will get me disqualified.
good comeback. sound like a broken record. ;)
you're assuming this is that said someone is using the demonstrated full-nelson or wrist-lock as the primary takedown method. it can be a follow-up technique used to flow with an opponent's...
i've dabbled in judo & bjj. i can say with confidence that your average student is far from being street worthy in 3 months
a bit generous aren't you?
i had few encounters. but i once used a phoenix-eye fist. it was like a vertical punch but rotated out laterally a bit; as if you're turning the hand palm up. my target was the nose, but the...
yup, just about it seems....
there are al lot shuaijiao videos out there you could get. even on youtube.

bawang, could you provide videos that show examples of both types of forms?
