I have asked but you are unable or unwilling to answer.
To be honest I have to get back to work.
While I enjoy your non answers which are very revealing I do have other things to attend to right now.
As to Guy b's comment about going to someplace other than close to me, if there is someplace near where I travel I would be happy to drop by.
I am a single father with two daughters living with me so I am not free to just up and go somewhere.
Also, it is not so important to me that I wish to put myself out.
Besides, like some others, people would doubtless say I did use Wing Chun as I train other arts.
Of course, if your WC\VT etc is so good it should not matter what someone used.
I am originally from Philly so do you guys have anyone, of your mindset and approach, who trains on the East Coast of the US between Georgia and New York City???
I have answered directly and honestly.
I asked you to help me understand what part of the answer is giving you difficulty, so that I might explain it better.
If you are having trouble with an answer, ask a followup or more detailed question.
Don't just give me this "unable or unwilling" bullsh!t and start trolling.
I am curious, have you guys honestly not gotten the idea that others think your manner of posting is full of crap??
Adult conversation where, when someone does not agree with your pov, the response is with insults and derision??
I am certainly not the only one who has made it clear that you provide no answers to questions.
If you are unhappy with the responses then either change or go somewhere you are appreciated.
I guess if it was that important to me, your illustration would be welcome.
Do you honestly think this is that serious or important to me???
Amusing.
Enjoy the rest of your day.
I've been trying to answer you and engage in adult conversation. It has proven difficult, because you just start trolling instead of following up.
Obviously not, or you would have a normal conversation, not this trolling mess you're on right now.Do you honestly think this is that serious or important to me???
How much i can fit in is immaterial, the fact is I and i suspect others too have access to very good material from known sources, so why they would bother with a style which seems semi cultish and attracts strange people which has no evidence of it working is beyond me.
Nope bakmei isnt tearing it up anywhere, never said it was not though did i say anywhere it was the best or make countless posts about how different unique and special it was without posting a single clip.....
Boxing and judo are very similar they both have strategies and techniques used to explain and enhance those strategies, they both drill from one end of the cooperative spectrum to the other, and both can post clips of their arts working in full competitons
Amount you can fit in and physical condition are intensely important for sport styles. Many things you see working in MMA, boxing, MT and other comp formats only work because the competitors are incredibly well conditioned young males training daily. Much of it is very inapproporiate to an old guy like you, especially as martial arts for fighting rather than weekend hobby.
They also (with the exception of BJJ, some Judo) lack strategy for the fight and ideas about fighting, i.e. they are not martial arts systems.
I think that most people have good access to decent sports based MA in most developed countries, me included. The reason that I do WSL VT is that it provides something not available from those other sources. It means nothing to me if you try WSL VT. No idea why you keep commenting on the wing chun forum really?
If you were being consistent then by your own criteria for judging MA systems you should reject Bak Mei. It doesn't make logical sense for you to be training this system, given what you tend to say here. Why the inconsistency? This is really strange.Nope bakmei isnt tearing it up anywhere, never said it was not though did i say anywhere it was the best or make countless posts about how different unique and special it was without posting a single clip
The boxing and judo training methodologies are entirely different, with judo containing a lot more cooperative training and application based training. Judo is also a martial art with strategy and ideas for fighting, boxing not. There is a standardised approach to teaching judo, no such thing for boxing, it being only a set of competition rules. Different boxing coaches have their own theories or styles, some good, some not so good. Utterly different. Makes me wonder if you ever tried either?Boxing and judo are very similar they both have strategies and techniques used to explain and enhance those strategies, they both drill from one end of the cooperative spectrum to the other, and both can post clips of their arts working in full competitons
