I'm with Joy on this one.That will only bring about a MMA response? Why say that?
Unless you're snapping leg bone strength twigs with your kicks, probably not an attack thats going to do a lot. (Yes i know its ideally to the side of the knee which is weaker in many instances).
It is easier to blow a joint than snap a bone. But they have to be bearing weight on that limb.
Psalms 144:1
Praise be my Lord my Rock,
He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !
It has nothing to do with snapping or breaking a bone or joint, though that should be the "intent" be hind it.
Just like hooking the ribs or right cross to the jaw has nothing to do with breaking those parts, though that should be the intent.
Psalms 144:1
Praise be my Lord my Rock,
He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !
I was in a confrontational mood lasy night Joy! But I'm sure most guys here will be fine with the comment, MMA peeps or not.
I would like to think so, but I'm pretty out of shape at the moment.
Agreed. Nothing like a pair of British DMs to add weaponry to the feet

Quansau with a low side kick is not signature of Wing Chun? I beg to differ.
Having/holding posture while applying legwork is a must imo, as each posture compliments the leg. Some work better than others imo and may be a reason that a kicking set/form was developed, to express this idea.
And I would listen to MMA guys tell me about my Wing Chun because... ?

One of my favor WC technique that I like is similiar to the Taiji "cross leg - reverse side kick". Instead of kicking 45 degree into your opponent's knee, you use the inside of your foot edge to slide down along your opponent's shin bone.

The posture compliments the leg... Well it depends on how she moves I guess...
In VT if we are in close we will be using our tools to break him down and strike him while we use our legs not simply covering....
The invisible kick, when we kick we have three legs on the ground, etc... That's VT.
If you were sparring with them I am sure they could tell you all kinds of useful things.... Sadly not the case... But in any event you brought it up.

Man, what is your issue with my posts these days?
I simply responded to sanjuro's fav tech and you jump on my use of quansau and how MMA guys would just dismiss the idea and now you're trying to teach me what your VT is??!! I applaud your enthusiasm for your VT, but it's pretty obvious we're on different sides of the coin.
Sorry, but if and when I do spar there definitely is no talking. You threw the MMA towel at me because you took the bait Joy identified, but hey! Each to their own.
