    WTgymnastics???

    Hi guys.
    I just watched a tape with some WT demos and in one of them there is three people doing the three basic WTforms at the same time...looks nice.
    But in the end one of them who is doing, i think its called Biuzte is doing some strange armswings and bending his body forwards like doing gymnastics.
    I have always heard that all WT movements have a purpose in fighting...so im rather curious about the applications of this movement.

    that must have been the "chum sun" motion. it is the last movement in the third form (before the final punchs)

    every other movment from every other form has use and purpose in fighting, but thats just a nice way to stetch out your back. honest

    I am only a "chum kui" level student so I don't practice bui jee, but I'm sure if its in one of the three hand sets, its meant to hurt people in some way.

    WT Senior ?

    Hi All

    I know the motion you mean and have been told a purpose to it, but since I am not at the biu level yet I have forgotten the **** thing, someone higher in WT come on and spill !

    Regards to all

    I once attended a seminar dedicated to the applications in the form if my memmory serves me correctly this motion is to clear away an attack when you have been taken down or being controlled by the back of the neck like how a kick boxer might knee you.

    this may help

    ...but I wouldn't go too far without someone showing you, or, of course, using it.
    its safe to say that I train some martial arts. Im not that good really, but most people really suck, so I feel ok about that - Sunfist
