    Spencer,


    Basically Fung Sifu is talking about being jumped by seven strong men on the way home. They wanted to steal his money. When they attacked he knocked a few of them senseless etc....... he then discusses the importance of the Yiu & Kwa Lik with regards to generating force. Fung Sifu was in a fantastic mood that day and you can see it in his face that he was happy to tell us some stories from his younger days.

    I am releasing two more clips over the next few days. Maybe sit next to your Sifu or someone who speaks Chinese one day and watch them.

    Next clips:

    Q&A w/Master Fung (2 questions regarding Gulao lore & boxing)

    "I will release this today"

    Pin Sun Chi Sao Sampler (a few China demos) & Master Fung on Chi Sao.

    "I will release this tomorrow"


    Peace,
    Jim

    I'm sort of requesting on others behalf Jim, as there are countless guys that are not so lucky to even have a Chinese speaking Sifu to sit next to. I can get away with my basics and pick up most of what he was saying, and you're right about him enjoying the attention too

    Great work and all credit to you for the research into Kulo/Gulao village and Fung Family Wing Chun.

    I'll try and review these after work each day and provide the English translations for review. 3mins is not too long. How is the audio quality?

    Wow, forgotten how strong Fung sifu's accent is. The gist of it is:

    During the Japanese occupation, he took 7 baskets of melons/quashes to market to sell at Shabing(?), earned some money. Was going to buy some clothes? But was then attacked by 7 individuals for his money (pickpockets?).

    The 1st one tried to delve into his pocket (0:48), when he asked for it back he was attacked right up his front (0:50-51). He responded with pak sao and a grab, pulling the person behind him (0:52-1:00).

    7 surrounded him, attacking him. He hit all 7 of them. 1 hit ... bang, 1 hit ... bang, etc.

    1:50: I was young then (26/28?). Was willing to train every night (1:56).
    2:02: I fought off 7. I hit them head over heels.
    2:06: I sold 7 baskets of melons/squashes. They stole all that money. Hadn't even eaten rice (had dinner) yet. Isn't that dire?
    2:20: 1 vs 7. That was the best!

    2:33: I was young then. I used the yiu-kwa strength. I didn't feel like I had much strength, but they flew off quite far. One palm and they flew off. You have good strength when you're young. It was great!

    What a character. You've got to love him!
