Hi there!
Wing chun is virtually unknown other than a few groups in Tokyo and Osaka respectively.
Northern styles are more popular over here - there never was the Cantonese or Fukkien

That is the original white crane school in Australia. My father studied with Chan-sifu in the early 70s, and said it was a good long fist style.
Ma-sifu has been a respected businessman in...
Hi there,
I'd like to take my Ipod Touch to HK and Macau.
Does anyone know how the free wifi is there? Are there portable wifi units etc I can rent at HK airport??
Thanks for sharing, Shaolin Dan!
T. Panda,
If you want to promote your training group to English speakers in Tokyo, the Kungfu Magazine forum is probably one of the best places to post. You can also try the Metropolis Magazine...
Time to put this into practice! Let me get back to you in a few weeks on my progress.
Thanks for your input everyone :-)
madhusudan, I'm all ears! Do you have any suggestions for learning the basics of exercise science? Going into my 40s, I want to prevent injuries and make sure I'm doing things as well as possible.
Thanks Oso. Why is cutting out the carbs so important??
Mickey and MarathonTmatt,
Thanks for the great suggestions! Mickey, I heard from an ex-boxer that you can jump rope on the balls of your foot rather than hyper extend the toes, but swimming seems...
Hi there!
I'm trying to decide whether to go with swimming or jumping rope as an aerobic workout to lose weight. I've worn down the cartilage in one of my big toes, so am thinking of discounting...
Hi there,
I have 27 old mantis books I'd like to pass on to mantis practitioners (I bought the books years ago, but am a wing chun guy). I put them up here about a year ago, but didn't end up...
Here's wishing you Aussie KFMers a great Australia Day.
Aussie Aussie Aussie!
Hi James,
I've got you and your mother-in-law in my thoughts.
It can be rattling at first, but as with everything in life, is better dealt with together.
Be strong and positive, and remember...
Was he just visiting, or did he live there and move back to HK?
Hi there,
I don't know how far from you this group is, but here is another option:

All the best.
While weapons can be presented at any of those stages as well, how about longer range for initial armed engagement etc too?
Hi everyone,
So several weeks in, I'm still challenged with the single leg post on my right side, but have recognized that some of this was due to poor hip alignment on my right side. My right is...
Ian and Bacon,
Many thanks for your insights. I've realigned my hips this week, which seems to provide somewhat more balance, but my ankles and knees are still out of balance - more to work on.
...
Wow, that's great that you've been able to conquer that. While I'll appreciate it if it's a trade secret, could you give me any hints into what sort of hei gong you did?
I'm fairly comfortable...
Thanks for these, Happy Tiger!
I haven`t had any leg or hip injuries to date, but I do find my flat footedness and weak-ass muscle control around my ankles, knees and with controling my hips a...
Hi LCP,
Thanks for your thoughts. Rather than using the single leg as a fighting stance, I`m aiming to use it for training to work on my stance for better structure on a single leg - to work out...
Hi Wiz Cool,
Is that really Shenzen? I`ve been there several times in the summer, and it is hot and humid as hell. You're looking pretty comfortable in your golf attire there! ;)
Thanks for the reassuring advice, k gledhill!
It's good to know I may work through this - will report back in a few weeks.
