    (sorry for the Typo my mistake)Wing chun and other Internal M.A

    I do like Wing CHun but I dont wont to miss out on any on the abilities and indepth knowledge other internal martial arts like Xing Yi quan has to offer. You think Wing chun is as good as Xing Yi in the indepth knowledges qi, yi and shen.

    I guess what I want to know is Iam a better off just borrowing internal conspects form other styles and using them within Win Chun???
    are they enough teachers out there in Wing Chun how have a good knowledges of internal kungfu

    Exactly, if you don't like wing chun, leave.

    If you wanna do an internal art, then go ahead, just don't be a troll.

    When someone busts through the door announcing they dont like the place, what do you expect?

    . . . to find out the character of wing chun practitioners. if they let themselves get all bent up just because someone was rude to them first by showing no respect for what they love. but to be honest I wouldn't mind if they left

    Complete

    Hello,

    There are some who would argue that Wing Chun is a complete system containing Internal Aspects. Of course finding someone to teach that or be able to demonstrate it may be another thing. Of course the same can be said of the so called internal arts as well. Tai Chi is a wonder fighting art yet most can not use it as so. It is not the art which is lacking but those practicing the art.

    Peace,

    Dave

    You are still in HS per your profile- a good time to find the best kung fu teacher you can find. If he happens to be a wing chun person and you stick with wing chun, the internal will come to you.
    .....once you develop proper structure and motion. I have found that to be the case myself. A good hsing I instructor is better than a bad wing chun instructor. Same the other way around. Visit schools, read and consult good kung fu people of differnt persuasions. The initial search is an important part of the journey.Mixing several arts at the beginning can be confusing. Sorry that miscommunication occurred with your first post. Good wishes. Feel free to ask off list advice if I can help.

    Wing Chun wa developed outside the "internal/external" classifications come up with further north, and IMHO, we're just fine without them. Typically, in the South, the terms used were not the same either, not the Qi/Yi/Shen (Hei/Yee/Sam) of Beijing scholars (to paint broadly with a narrow brush , or Neijia collection of disparate but jointly-practiced (by some) systems.

    In WCK, they did speak of Yee (Intent), of Hei (Breath/Essance), of Noigung (Neigong, Internal Work) and Ngoigung (Waigong, External Work). Of Yao (Rou, Softness) and Sung (Song, Relaxation). But WCK also talks of Jung (Center) and avoiding extremes, of Yum Yeung (Yin Yang) and Leung Yee (Liang Yi) and balancing the approach. Even in legend, the system was said to derive from both Buddhist (external, having come from outside China), and Taoist (internal, having been developed inside China), sources.

    So, while some may think Internal is a label to seek or a tag line to use, I think WCK does just fine with WCK.

    rene,

    ... until one ponders the others that don't use "WCK" to describe Ving Tsun Paai Kung Fu or still others who "tag" it with a different name entirely.
