Choy lay Fut Fundamental Training

Teaching can be a rewarding experience when you get a group of dedicated and interested students.

No we don't always keep it on top. We use a regular fist alot. With those particular strikes we move the thumb so it's not in the way. Also with the panther fist we place the thumb at the top and press on the other fingers to create a more stable striking surface. Though we do use the regular fist alot with the chop choi

in my opiniion, the shape of the hand doesn't make the chop choy. its the concept of STABBING that we focus on. but just to make sure we never forget to move the thumb, i always make my students use the thumb on top in order to not make a mistake.

Yes I agree. We use so many different hand formations such as regular fist, panther fist, palm strikes, tiger claw, finger strikes etc. that I like my students to get used to changeing the hand formation often.
