    wow! that is a bold statement! i would love to see what your practice actually looks like.

    benny is pretty good from what i hear... a friend of mine is a black belt under him and speaks highly of his skills in kickboxing.
    best,

    i dunno he looks very stiff here and awkward not to mention he doesnt pull his kicks back after he throws them and leaves them hanging out there( a sign of a bad kicker) his stance is also very side ways

    i would say theres probably quite a few people on this board who are better kickers than him

    and then when you compare superfoots kicks to this for example you see why i am not impressed with his kicking abilities

    I saw that. I thought Master Sin was reluctant to teach this form because you needed to be really ripped with specific muscle group control in order to do this form?

    According to EML there's no point striking or force used at all.....it's an inhancement to meteor fist....it's all about learning how to use your Chi to move all parts of your body.....Internal work.....pretty cool.

    10,000 Lotus Blooming

    This is why people come back to and stay with SD amid all the criticism. For all the faults of the system and some of the practitioners, GMS has material that can't be found anywhere else. Sometimes I think that makes non-SD'ers jealous, thus some of (but not all of) the criticism.

    Does anyone have a book, video, DVD, etc., of 10,000 Lotus Blooming, either from when he first mentioned it 20-30 years ago, or up to now? Or know of any?

    One more point on pressure point fighting

Luck maybe but I was taught the combo and I hit it, I was trained that way.
    In MA one is taught to focus Chi or Ki in the area from the 1st 2 knuckles or what ever striking area of the body. It can be done if you take the time to do it. Here is a fun drill have someone blow bubbles alot of them and see how many you can burst with one finger or kick with the big toe in each time before they areall gone. A fun game but very functional. Also there are 720 points in the body not all are effective to hit. But that is alot KC
    Watch carefully the new trailer for the new Sherlock Holmes movie with Robert Downey Jr. One scene he is instructing on a fighting technigue, showing and telling a three point combination behind left ear, right rib cage, front of throat. He's pressre point fighting. I'd like to see where that came from.

    And in the bare-chested pit fight, he is clearly doing some kind of exotic martial arts, I think again TCMA in origin.

    Not so much... he's just using tender/"vital" areas to strike that any Marquis de Queensbury boxer would strike for the era...

    He's a Wing Chun practitioner.

    Well your right it does keep people coming back(and spending money). And this is why sin the does it. Keep 'em spending that dollar!
    Why wait till your senior students are almost 70 years old before you teach them the good stuff. Now their too old to use it. Doesn't make sense.
