It is Yong Chong White crane. White crane from Wing Chun county . Not wing chun from the red boats. That is why it doesnt look like wing chun. It's not its white crane.
It's amusing how silly he makes the "masters" look when the talking is over.[/QUOTE]
This is the interesting thing about this series. So far everyone he has sparred a bit with has shown that...

Ok I misunderstood you. I thought you were saying I said Yip Man returned from from st. Stephans and beat everyone.
I have never said anything of the kind anywhere! Never have I ever talked about what Ip Man did when he returned from St. Stephans. I hope you are confusing me with some one else.
This is part of the problem of historical martial arts research. The Chinese penchant for nicknames and adoptive names. Moy Yat was just being traditional by giving his disciples a "Moy" family name....
Thats great Keith. Give me a heads up and we can get some green chili.
Lo Kwai is the source from Leung Jan. Chao Ng Kwai was the son of Lo Kwai's nephew.

Kwai family 4th form is basically those concepts and idea's that did not make it into the 3 standard forms. However many of the concepts became including in our knife and dummy forms. Basically 4th...
I have been planning on sending Hendrik a vid of the first form and the sections of the dummy that do not have a corresponding section in the Yip Man form. If i can figure out how I will place online...
I cleaned out my box.
Interesting. There are some surprising similar things but Many differences too. Kwai family has kuit but some I have not seen other places. Focus though has always been on function over form. For...
I have no knowledge of Cho Family wing chun and don't recall what Hendrick shown so I can't answer this.
Kwai family maintains a written history so they do have some comments on LYT teaching but...
No. Fung Wah was a friend of Lo Kwai. Lo Kwai shared his Knife form with Fung Wah but not the same person . Lo Kwai did not go to Taiwan his family did sometime after his death. See link below. Lo...
Overall, I think KLPSWCK has more in common with Yuen Kay Shan WCK than it does with Yip Man WCK. Which IMHO, kind of puts a wrench in some of the history theorizing that has been done here.[/QUOTE]...
Good points Joy and I tend to agree with you. I just am giving the YKS teaching YM chi sau rolling the benefit of the doubt as I don't think it is the major claim. To me it's the advanced techniques ...

Another thing to I believe is never let anyone tell you what I see. No ignore the man behind the curtain stuff....
