    Anyone who has had the pleasure to meet, train and discuss Wing Chun with Ernie would know that he is consistent in his approach. While it evolves, it does so organically. It's not some flavor of the...

    Not necessary.
    You said that you hit a "speed bump". The best way to learn is to slow it down. Speed kills.
    Since you say that your hands are at "weird angle positions" it seems that you know...

    I think that's a fair assessment and a balanced response. Not something that we see very often in these forums. Thanks Paul.

    Phil,
    Don't take the bait. Trash talk is just trash. Don't even make the effort to pick it up. It's not worth it.

    Do you feel that specifically incorporating structure into the cirriculum is a disadvantage? If so, why?
    Just curious. Thanks

    I may be nit picking, but I would say this is first not second. You cannot hope to affect the opponent if you don't have command of yourself first.
    Outside of this point I am in agreement.

    I am NOT a snake, or a fish or a crane therefore I do not attempt to behave like one. Until I develop some leathal venom or razor sharp claws, I'll stick to more human behavior. :)

    Kenton,
    This is a very sad story. I'm sorry to hear about your bad experience. Be aware that arrogance is not limited to particular members of one group. It's ubiquitous.

    Take care.

    IMO "upper body techniques" have limited use without the horse.
    I just don't like the term "strong stance". You need to sink and relax the horse. I think of "strong" as applying muscular tension...
