Just an observation regarding the average martial arts class. Of course some people will progress alot more quickly.
But there are reasons to kick above your waist in class: Stretching, big target, conforms with some sporting rules or friendly testing of skills, or so that your partner can practice against such kicks.
I have NO athletic background except for early teens, am 36 now, and have been training under a year, I am not in great shape YET, and I can kick well above my waist.Most people can't even kick above their waist after 1 year, especially if they have no athletic background.
I must be a freak of nature LOL.

Yeah, and 90% of streetfights go to the ground.Most people can't even kick above their waist after 1 year, especially if they have no athletic background.
I was one of the minority, same as Vicky.

props to them for pushing it, but very much of it did look like a chain punch fest. i can't say much more than two years experience, if that, because i don't recall a single elbow being used, much less regular chi sau. also, WT teaches chin na starting at around 2½ years or so, and i didn't see any of that, either.
to give them some benefit of the doubt, the gloves they have on aren't easy to work with. they're meant not just to pad, but to restrict the wrist and fingers to keep from injury -- this also means the gloves keep them from being used to their greatest extent. so while the hands are protected, they're not much more than clubs, à la typical boxing.

hi all

AdrianUK:
Correction. This is a different WT club and it's in Germany. No need to check out the other forum.
We have a WT center with a fightclub too, in Denmark.
Has anyone seen the escrima clip? it's pretty cool. the sifu looks like a badass. like a hells-angels member, or something!
my guess is 3yrs and they are probably told to fight like that.
That is just about the funniest thing I have ever seen.
Rene Ritchie has chain punched this thread with the correctness. Amusingly couch warriors sit back and pick, yet never spar lol.Good for them. Takes guts. Anyone who disses should please post a clip of themselves doing better.
