Develop bad habits from sport

[YouKnowWho]

No roundhouse in Kung Fu, ...

I have also learned the white ape 武松鸳鸯腿 (Wu Song Yuan Yang Tui). It's clear to see that at 0.36, there is a roundhoude kick before the back kick.

I learned Bak Sil Lum Tan Tui.
It has 10 roads and no round houses. Road 7 and road 8 both have heel kicks though.

GM Han Ching-Tan had changed the Tantui #1 by replacing a straight punch into a hook punch (or haymaker). Both GM Han and GM Chang had learned Tantui from Nanking CMA Institute. In Tantui #1 the 2nd punch, I saw GM Chang did a straight punch while GM Han did a hook punch.

GM Han may change Tantui #7 from a heel kick into a roundhouse kick.

I gotta disagree with you here Sifu Wang.
Here is GM Han doing Tan Tui.

The road seven is the same as the bak sil lum.
The only difference is that he stops doing complete 2 sided roads after road 3, does one iteration of the rest following that. Also, on his fourth road, he diagonally steps out of the line. I think this is also seen in other forms from bak sil lum.

I remember seeing another member here doing the other pre-lim form and doing the same side stepping that I never did when I was taught. That might be a flavouring specific to a particular lineage.

asking if kung has has roundhouse is like asking if kung fu has a hook punch. its an understandable question, but also a retarded question.

because the main kick of tan tui is tan tui.

tan tui develops the spring leg. It has several different kicks.

Straight kicks, side kicks,snap kicks, heel kicks.
the early kicks and late kicks in the set are from the hip.
the middle kicks are snap/heel and side.

spring leg is what happens when you train this set a lot. (although plyometrics ca get your there faster in my opinion)

lots of people say "my style doesnt have ____, its not in the form. my shifu didnt teach me."


i know forms called 24 jabs, 36 hooks. if i explain them, would that make a difference? suddenly open their eyes and change their ways forever?
there will be always something thats not found in a form. there will always be something for those people to whine about. "in kung fu we dont do this". as if not knowing something is a badge of pride.

In all fairness, it's a great set that develops a pretty good set of martial skills.
Oh yeah...it's Muslim in origin too.
