Hi Chu Sau Li,
I have the humble familiarity of an autodidact.
Its such a huge topic and the tendency is for people to emphasize particular aspects that they are into. For instance, I recognize most of the terms that you used but certainly not all of them.
I can tell you from my experience;
1) That my main concern is "how do I use this to better my Gung Fu" i.e. how can the theory (anchoring, meta states, time line, modalities" be turned into a drill with real time application. So, I would definitely be interested in how you (specifically) incorporate NLP tools into training Wing Chun.
2) Most useful to me have been meta states. I've had a bit of luck being guided by a hypnotherapist so I've used self inductions for a few years to create some resource states for e.g. Wing Chun, studying, working etc. I used to be into swish patterns and anchoring but the novelty wore off after a while.
3) A problem I find is that when you incorporate this stuff, a lot of becomes subconscious, so you have to step back to understand what you are doing.
3) A big thing for me is posture, macro and micro gesture changes (to make assessments and predictions regarding the opponent). This has obvious application to de-escalation strategies when the 'tells' are obvious of someone in a heightened state of aggression.
I hope this makes sense. Also interested to hear any observations you have and perhaps even suggestions.
Suki
