    Yessir, I have bounced at a couple clubs and house partys to get a little bit of extra cash. My sifu doesn't really like it, but I have stopped since I found a better job.

    Here is an example to use a pre-defined footwork in attacking.

    - Back foot move 1 feet,
    - front foot move 3 inches,
    - try to align back foot with opponent's feet (make sure your opponent has less chance to escape that leading leg attack).
    - ...

    They all have there place. My sifu likes us to vary up footwork. Sometimes use white crane, other times use lohan. It all depends on the variables of the situation.

    Walking a circle the thighs are close but no crossing really required.

    There's a transition move to walking the circle (Pa Kua Ch'uan) which is what the seven except Sifu Wang are doing in the picture of eight Bagua-ists near the beginning of this thread.

    No crossing of legs! Revers bow and arrow to T footed Unicorn Wing Chun Stance to reverse bow and arrow.

    Just shuffle, it's better that way anyways. Same way you would lunge in with a bow stance. Push step bring up the rear. Good way to keep a solid base.

    Sometimes it's good to cross step though, or walk in. There are lots of variables to consider. If you spar a lot, it's probably instinct for you by now.

    There is a safe spot for your "cross legs". That's when you are behind your opponent and your opponent hasn't turn around yet. If you are still in front of your opponent, it's not a good idea.

    What's in that video is special circumstances as more fights/spars than not are not doh-see-doh square-dancing which is what they essentially are doing. People don't lock elbows like that.

    Good Enough to be Examples of the Classic?

    These people are moving around and not using Circle Walking. Except around forty five seconds white top started to-by having controlled steps for momentary rooting for support.
    The steps are not rooted enough to work for what the practice might should be for.

    One might wonder if these people put-in the quality effort with the quality understanding to count to be examples of the application of Circle Walking.

    Slow becomes very fast. You don't just take technique and go faster.

    In Squirrel is the lesson of a Sheet of Paper and a Ream--One can tear a sheet of paper in half-ish whereas one is harder-pressed to tear a ream of paper in half-ish. Strength is added to; thin layer by thin layer...

    What about if you are circling around the lead arm? That happens all the time. Moving in and out in a linear fashion is usually not that great of an idea in a real empty hand combat situation. In my experience anyways. Even when I shoot in for a double, quite often it's got a slight arc to it as I anticipate turning the corner for a hard takedown.

    At 0.18, 0.21, 0.23, 0.27, 0.36, 0.41, ... his opponent should move toward his circle walking opponent instead of just stood there. He might miss that opportunity in the 1st time. But to miss it 3 times or even more would be his own fault. He didn't even "intend" to sweep his opponent's leg even once. In order to do so, he would need to step in, plant his foot at the right time, and at the right place.

    The guy was awkward or the kung fu? Because the kung fu from what I have experienced was good stuff.

    when you going to put up a bunch of clips of you fighting? love how you go to different boards and cut down everyone's stuff.

    how experienced is the bagua guy? there were many concepts he didn't use.

    love for you to fight my mantis teacher and my bagua teacher.
