My apologies to you Gangsterfist for this digression. It seems as if during the exchange of ideas and opinions, I made several that the Great Sage Hendrik, in his all knowing glory, has stated are wrong. According to who, I do not know.
Dont quote what others say, say things in your own way, for you might not understand what others mean even you think you do.
So let me get this straight. You’re the one who presumed I was directly quoting you because you don’t understand the finer nuances of English grammar? Then you dispense the above advice to me? Dude, you’re a walking contradiction. If you’re going to give such advice, why not take it and use it for yourself? You might be better off if you can practice what you preach before advising others on such matters. I never said I was interpreting your words or anything. Paraphrasing is taking other pre-existing words and adding your own ideas to them, so I was not trying to make a statement based on my understanding of what you said. Dig?
What Da Moose trying to qoute me. and add on his own ideas....etc
---------so as Hendrik said, teach them to be in the here and now,
otherwise they’re likely to miss the form or mess up the sequences.
Once they have the sequence down as second nature,
teach the student to focus on their breathing via the daan tien in a relaxed manner.
Once this is achieved, teach them to connect their inhalation/exhalation with their hand motions, breathing in and out appropriately with the hand movements. ---
Wasn’t trying to quote you, otherwise I’d have just done so. As for the here and now with the sequences, I was referring to the fact that beginners have trouble with the forms at times, especially if their minds wander about. They lose the awareness of what is going on now, and hence, get lost during the form, messing up a sequence or section.
This above is a totally out too. Any one read the TAiji classical knows, " the attention is on the shen, not in the Qi/breathing. on the breathing will cause stagnation/clumsy."
“Totally out” according to whom? You, oh great and wise sage of all that is Wing Chun? Claiming to be omniscient are we? So you’re now telling me that what I have experienced and learned is not valid, real, etc.? I’m not disputing the Taiji knowledge, but in the beginning, there has to be attention on the breathing for most people since they have ‘forgotten’ what their diaphragm is and breathe with their chest.
You see, SLT is not Chop Suei. One cant just mix up all the Vegi and stir fried them to make SLT and SLT is not English GRAMMA too. You want to learn how to make a better His-Story, take my ADVANCE HIS-STORY making class. heheheh
Uhm, yeah, ok. Not too sure what you said there. I’d rather not take your classes at all from the way you’re speaking here, not even commanding a basic understanding of the English language and how it is employed, otherwise, you’d have understood the concept of paraphrasing when I first mentioned it. Oh wait, that’s right! I said it was a concept. Sorry, I’ll have to send you a pool skimmer so you can catch it. Granted that SNT/SLT isn’t English grammar, but talking about anything in English requires some basic grammar, no? I imagine it’s the same in Chinese, for its true of every other language in the world. Maybe I just didn’t see your sign from Foxworthy.
DA MOOSE has no idea what hendrik is talking about.
You got that right. And I’m sure a lot of people here are just as clueless regarding what you say here, if any sense of it can be made at all. Go squawk elsewhere.
One question for you though, Hendrik:
“How you get so big if make posts of your kind?”
