Some great posts.

I have to think that I agree with most of them. I do think it is Yin right now but will come back around.

As for it being a martial art. I agree. I came to the conclusion...

The kung Li kuen I learned while training at a Chin Woo Eagle Claw school does not resemble wah lum to me. Not that I know much about WL so.......

I could be a different form.

I could put it...

In my opinion to become a good fighter you must develop yourself in some basic areas such as: cardio, timing, coordination, speed, power, footwork and "fightiing attitude". These are covered in the...

There is a flexible weapon called a sui so gee (sp?) small sweeper. Similar to the di so gee - large sweeper. It is two pieces of wood chained together like the nunchaku. One is longer than the...

I think if I were to train overseas I believe one of the guys I would try to train with would be Master Shr zheng zhong (sp?) in Taiwan.

For two reasons. First, going by all of the info to the...

Thanks for the info! Is there anyway I could get an english translation?:)
You could PM if you like.

I agree, you cant tell some one that they can be an instructor in a...

Thanks GBL!

How many partner forms do you require. Are they all ling sets or sets to be done only only as partner sets?

I just heard a story of a person who went to China to study "traditional kung fu" for a very high price. I think the person was there for a few weeks and all they did were things like push ups, sit...

It appears that the wah lum system has thousands of people involved in the U.S.

I would be very surprised if there wernt any political problems.

Can anyone name any type of organization with...

I have asked this question before and no one give give a straight up answer.

I think the requirments vary from teacher to teacher.

There does not seem to be any consistancy between schools.

Thanks 18.

I got confused by the posts. I wasnt sure who was teaching where.

I understand. I have had cases of kung fu uncle worship in my school. Usually leaves me feeling like crap.

Is Tainan your instructor? It sounds like you have alot of respect for him. It is not often you hear a student...

This master sher guy sounds like a great guy to train with. It is nice to ask a question and get a reply. That is the way it should work.

like I said we are in agreement.

I think just because my master has trained with 20 other masters it makes my stance any better for fighting. I have to do the fighting to find out what...

It seems we are in agreement. I dont think anyone should go by someone elses bio to make their decision on what works for them in a fighting situation.

Some of the teachers may not...

I must still be reading your posts wrong.


Everyone else

I would like to ask the nice people involved with this post when was the last time you had the gear on and fought some san...

Great post seven star.

Are jon funks vids the actual form or does he alter the forms on the vids to sell to the public?

I didnt realize that you knew yushan.

I dont. He sounds like he knows his stuff.

I think everyone knows they can improve themselves in every aspect of the art that they study and...

My area of the country does not have much of a chinese population and the rest could care less about the culture. I wish it were a different story, my students love doing the lion dance...

What system is system is this set from?

Is this a traditional set or for demo purposes?

Is it usually done in the same sequence every time?

The reason I ask is that I am aware of...

I agree, you dont "break things on the way down". It is the abrupt stop at the end that breaks things.

Oso would probably agree that even a basic hip throw can injure a person who is...

It seems that I am the runt. 6ft 2in 190lb:)

A good instructor should be able to teach you not matter what size, if he is teaching a good style.

You may want to remember that if you did...

If I understand correctly the form on this clip would be called praying mantis steals the peach by HK WHF lineage and it would be called white ape steals the peach by mainland yantai Qixing.

Am...

Mr. N

Were you saying the form Mr Desargo is performing on the clip is called Praying manits steals the peach?
