    Yeah. I don't use centres, but I like to read about them. Do you know of any good websites about them? Probably very important when on boats...

    Sorry I don't, should try searching the site, I'm guessing the subject would come up at some point, being a centre line style and that lol

    But.. from what I can see on the net, most people only think of the one "centre line" , the one between 2 people.

    there are 3 your centre of gravity line, heart line and the meridian line.

    Oh, the 3 lines reminds me of learning about multi-attacker applications in animals forms. Well constructed forms should handle 3 attackers covering all 360 degrees around you...

    Know of any where I can read of such things?

    Wing Chuns forms don't focus on scenarios or applications. More of a Dao yin.. in my opinion, with the focus on musculoskeletal structure, I think acrobats had an influence in it... Funnily I've seen (on this site) someone with more knowledge than me saying the same.

    The only form that even considers the opponents centre line is the dummy form, which I don't know..

    Have not seen such things descibed anywhere, nor do I know how that could be done. It cannot even be captured in diagrams, and I don't recall ever seeing any good videos about it. It is usually taught while learning a 5 animal system, and Mantis style is usually not one of animals, that's why I had suggested putting more of the snake style back into Wing Chun by going back to its roots, that is, with less rooted horses...

    I would say the stance is only rooted when it needs to be, but that's just me...

    Remember there is different families, some more snake like than others

    Thanks

    The Center Point is a few inches below the navel .. its the balance point in the body.. as you can see it's different then Centerline.. so any move I make is to distribute that balance point instead of attacking and defending the Centerline.

    There is no REAL secrets in Wing Chun, but because the forms are conceptual you have to know how to decipher the information..That's the secret..

    Centre of gravity line, is line that goes through that point and the one that I was taught to attack

    when you say centre line, what do you refer to as the centre line?
