If you are secure in your approach then so be it, no need or benefit of always trying to put differing views down.
LFJ, I am going to step outside of my normal response for a moment and ask you something, and this does relate to Training so it is relevant to this thread.
You have made statements that you do not train applications, not in forms or apparently elsewhere in your approach to WC/VT/WT.
So my question is:
When you practice Chi Sau, which from previous videos posted, it appears that you utilize the same movements other Yip Man lineages utilize.
So, that being the case, are you not actually training to apply techniques/applications within the framework of Chi Sau to respond to specific techniques.
In other words aren't you training to respond to specific actions or energy with specific responses? While I agree that there can be modifications and your response can and should vary depending on what is given, but don't you need to know and learn how to respond with something specific? At least in the beginning?
If not then please explain what you are using Chi Sau for if not training to respond in a preset pattern with some variations.
