haha, I was joking/messing with you. From everything I've seen, nothing stan does is even remotely close to realistic anythying. That's why I asked you to describe what you think is 'training realistically', so people can get a baseline of your understanding of the termOriginally Posted by Yoshiyahu

I love Wing Chun. It's what I like to do in my free time.
...but boxing, MT, etc have 'pockets of power' as well. While large looping punches are often seen in boxing - hooks, uppercuts, body shots, etc were developed when the range got closer and straight lines didn't work (opponent covers up, gloves are in the way of their face, etc).
So, yes: Wing Chun would excel in a phone booth, but if you're in there with a boxer, watch your ribcage.

Oh yeah? How often do you train in phone booths and porta-loos?Your argument is pretty invalid because most WC schools STILL don't train realistically.
Alan ORR. Yes, but he's not the only one. He is the only one with a good video series.Unless it's an Alan OR student of course.

Can't I just give the guy 50 cents and save my floating ribs? Sheesh!
In all seriousness I agree with you. I can't stand WC people who insist that the only effective and real power generation can come out of a Wing Chun structure, especially since there is a very easy way to prove that is not the case.
