For anyone that's interested and within driving distance to Madison, Wisconsin:

Just letting Wing Chun people in the area know -
United Martial Arts Institute Kung Fu Championship (UMAI)
Saturday, October 22nd
9am-7pm

I would agree with TenTigers, I'm friends with a talented Jook Lum sifu and the context of bridging, energy play, etc. is different.
As for the video, it looks like two intermediate level students...
LOL, says you again Kevin. I've interacted with enough other sifu across the board to know that there are plenty who a) Actually view it as representing the different aspects of a person and b) Use...
So in your system everyone they fight against is the same exact height and build as themselves? What's this crazy mirror image world called? Have to visit there sometime...
Yes, because everyone knows Wing Chun just trains eye gouging super human killing machines. :rolleyes:
An art that prides itself on adaptability can't adapt when there's a ring and a few officals...
I suppose you're being just a tad melodramatic.
A dissertation wasn't required. This isn't mine (or a lot of other people's) first rodeo here, the F=M*A thing has been thrown out many times...
If only the complexities of dynamics and interaction in physics could actually be summed up by a grade school level formula. ;)
I always love when someone tries to trot that one out.
In that video, he's using more leverage than what I would term as "wing chun body connection". Leverage is of course a "body connection" as well, but that's the point - we can be using the same...
Banned? Looks like I missed the fun.
LOL, if by fairly new you mean for a good 20 years.... ;)
We've been having these discussions about them online for almost as long as well.
I had at the time, and I remember discussion on the list at the time as well was that the origin of that platform was traced to one of Chan's students. I should still have it archived somewhere. ...
And I love how on Sergio's twitter page he calls this guy Sum Nung's "top student":
"Yuen kay san's Siu Nim Tau demonstrated by Dr Cheung Yung top student of Sum Nung "
Likewise, as someone who...
a) What's your source, as you weren't there. b) The two were reported friends. c) Many of the wing chun people in fatshan reportedly regularly informaly exchanged.
Where on earth did you get...
LOL, that leaves out half the people on this discussion board. ;)
I would think "In the beginning" is also a pretty generic prhasing, which can lend itself to a multiple levels/depth of...
Careful, he may go all Tom Cruise on you:

Hahaha!
LOL, I might try what? Who am I promoting? You were promoting PB, and it was coming off like a cult. Plain and simple. Please show me where I've ever deferred to Robert in my recent posts, name...
Lol, with people like you why would he have to? ;) Though I don't see how statements like "but until YOU stand in front of PB", "...looking for answers that WSL had given PB", "to visit him in...
Long reply deleted, quote Jim's account title:
"Attain Master of Silence"
Still working on that Jim I see. ;)
Wasn't referring to "flow" either. ;)
Just reading through this and was going to say something similar - it's BS in that it's all one energy, one "engine of interaction". Those are just lables to split up and codify (artificially...
Personally, I'm a little sickened at all the name calling and disrespect I'm seeing going on. Rick is a stand up guy, and someone I have a lot of respect for having spent time with him and Alf when...
And those wheels are a spinnin'.
Just doing a little clarifying here in parentheses, since the entire message seems to be lost when someone starts speaking in absolutes and their method as "the...
Thought I'd weigh in to try and add some levity and middle ground in the convo, but methinks I may be just spinning my wheels with some of the characters in here. (My apologies in advance for the...
